Bombshell
Jean Harlow plays patsy in this sharp-toothed comedy of a movie queen who squirms vainly under the thumb of her publicity agent. Lee Tracy, as the demonic puppeteer, knows what to do with Jules Furthman's gleaming dialogue; and Franchot Tone, as a sappy spoiled rich kid, arrives in time to perk up the wilting movie with some of its dizziest lines ("I'd like to run barefoot through your hair"). Directed by Victor Fleming. 1933.
