two kiddie vets

Broadway star Carlotta Lee (Gladys George) is struggling on stage and on the gossip pages. She battles bad press even if most of it is true. Peter Lawrence (Franchot Tone) is an influencial columnist both in print and on the radio. He starts promoting the adoption of orphaned siblings Mike O'Toole (Mickey Rooney) and Jake O'Toole (Virginia Weidler). Lee's agent Jimmy Slattery (Ted Healy) suggests adopting them for the publicity.

This is a fine movie for the most part. The injection of the two veteran kids adds some good energy and plot points. I'm not saying that they saved anything. It's just that they put a nice jolt in the spine when the movie seems to need it.
