Transatlantic Merry-Go-Round (1934)
No. 97: Starring Nancy Carroll, Jack Benny & large ensemble cast. A cruise ship murder mystery, comedy, musical romance! It was kind of all over the place, with a Busby Berkeley-esque musical number thrown in for good measure. A ship FULL of criminals, so it was hard to find a sympathetic character to root for. Oh, and the ubiquitous drunk (shown in so many 1930s travel movies!) was in almost every scene. An odd mashup that wasn't my cup of tea. One acrobatic dance sequence gave me the heebie-jeebies because they werebliterally throwing women around. 😮
