Review of Reckless (1935) by Michael T — 19 Mar 2014
Tonally odd screwball comedy-to-drama, with Jean Harlow as a Broadway singer who recklessly marries blue-blood admirer, Franchot Tone. William Powell's long-time friend character, who secretly pines after Harlow, is maybe the only one whose wit and talents are used well here.
Tone annoys as the mopey husband, and Harlow's badly-dubbed musical numbers don't do her any favors.
