With Words and Music (1937)
Directed by Andrew Stone
A gangster revives the careers of a faded Gilbert and Sullivan troupe in an elaborate scheme to get back at the girl who rejected him. The plot is farfetched, to say the least, but in my opinion, Robert Armstrong turns in a better performance in this obscure B musical than in King Kong. And the musical numbers, taken from a variety of G and S operettas, are great and performed authentically. Robert Armstrong .... Jimmie Allen Irene Hervey .... Pearl Paula Stone .... Mabel Edward Brophy ....
