    If you excuse a few improbable twists in the plot the film has some frank pre-code events that make it interesting including gang of pimps who sell girls into white slavery in South America, and for anyone who crosses them the baker’s oven. Paris might sleep but I maintained my interest until the fiery conclusion of the film.
