You're a Sweetheart

A Broadway producer is in a quandary when he discovers that the opening of his newest big production coincides with that of a major charity event.

You're Telling Me

Brazil is perhaps the best of the handful of US films made by Brazilian singing sensation Tito Guizar.

Upon learning about Nicky's book, Miguel decides to teach her a few lessons in the affairs of the heart. Edward Everett Horton is also on hand, twittering his way through the role of a well-meaning buttinsky.

But when Lee is framed for the murder of his disgruntled manager, Slice, by a henchman of the fight-fix leader, Joe Largo, Dodge takes on his defense and works with Katherine to discover the real killer.
