Viola Diana's sister, Shirley Mason, has the lead role of a delicatessen girl whose infatuation with a prizefighter (Johnnie Walker) forces her timid dress-designer boyfriend (William “Buster” Collier, Jr.) to battle Walker in the ring. Mocking the traditional macho code all the way through the film, Capra directed the David-and-Goliath tale in a breezy, offhand style that makes enjoyable what might otherwise seem a disturbingly masochistic story. Almost all of the film takes place on a single tiny studio street, and the paucity of extras in the delicatessen, dress shop, and sidewalk scenes is very noticeable, suggesting that the studio was determined to show the rebellious Capra who was boss when it came to budgetary matters. The extreme cheapness of the film probably contributed to its modest reception. Variety found it amusing but said condescendingly, “From the angle of second- and third-run box office-not a bad picture.”
