Fields and Mae West. Though it&#8217;s considered by many to be a sub-par comedic outing (see the review links below), I have to say I disagree: it&#8217;s full of countless hilarious moments, and &#8212; as with many Fields vehicles &#8212; the rather silly plot matters far less than the constant innuendos and gags.
