Comment
A woman employs a gigolo to accompany her to bridge games, but he falls for her daughter. This is a strange mis-mash of a film that has a nonsense plot that mixes inter-generational tensions, jitter bug dancing, forced prositution and bizarley batton twirling. Bety Compson has done better films.
