    We can never _really_ tell what it was like for these actors to work together, but the end result was definitely tied to the skill of Conrad Nagel, Eleanor Hunt, Vince Barnett, Claudia Dell, and
    Jack La Rue. The fast editing keeps the story moving all the time - it's not the greatest of stories, but the fun is due to the interaction between the characters. Thanks for this always enjoyable movie!

      She's all but forgotten today, unfortunately. Her career didn't last that long, either, and her adopted daughter said that she was an alcoholic. I've seen her in other films, and she comes across as highly attractive........except in 'Blue Steel', a creaky 1934 western.

      Yes, Eleanor Hunt is quite a spunky actress in a "Lois Lane" and Torchy Blane vein. Not "beautiful" in the conventional sense of the word, but attractive enough and lots of Glenda "Torchy Blane" Farrell type personality as an intrepid Girl Reporter. A shame Hunt didnt become a bigger star after a promising star as a Sam Goldwyn contractee. I believe Hunt was married to a Grand National Pictures producer, George Hirliman, hence her leading lady status - billing in a handful GN productions.

      You'd have to reduce the population radically. The US population was less than 130 Million at that time, and now it's 330-to-350 Million and the borders are still open to 'the wrong kind of people'. That's the insurmountable obstacle you'd have to overcome. That, and the technology which has overtaken the Human race.

    The hats designed in the 1930's and early 1940's were a joke on American Women and whole fashion Industry.
    The materials were cheap, designs were not to enhance an outfit or bring out the beauty in a face?

    The historical background to keep in mind is that the INS was just about a dozen years old at that point (1936). Before that, the borders were wide open, as long as you passed health inspection at Ellis Island. However, if you were Asian (Chinese, that is) you were SOL since the passage of the Chinese Exclusion Act in 1892.
    That lasted until 1942, when we needed China's cooperation against the Japanese during WW2.
    Also, getting a truck across the Mexican border in 5 minutes? Those were the good old days!

      Borders were not wide open. In fact, Immigration was a huge issue in the later part of the 19th Century. Big Business and Politicians tried passing Laws to legalize a Sterilization Act on Immigrants, Mental patients, and Lower Income Houeholds. There was a time when Sterilization was enforced on those in Mental Hospitals or anyone with a low IQ. Unfortunately many children who were taken from their Parents by the Social Welfare System ended up in Mental Health facilities due to overcrowded Orphanages and Schools for underprivileged?
      Taken from homes with one Parent if a Parent died! Especially during the Depression if a Parent worked and had no daycare, couldn't afford it, or left an older child to care for their siblings?
      Immigration was a huge issue because most Immigrants were impoverished.
      However, during war it was necessary for residents of neighboring Mexico to send Vocarro's, farmers to nearby States across the US border to work the farmlands while American Soldiers were sent away to fight.
      This Seasonal farming continued up through the 1980's without any real issues of Immigration. When Immigration Laws changed that's when there was a significant influx of illegal immigrants who stayed in the US. The US made the problem.
      The workers use to come and work and they had housing saved their money and went home to their families. The returned to the same farms every year. They came from Paraguay, Venezuela, Peru, Columbia and Mexico.

      @@Prof.Tarfeather You, like most people discussing this issue, commingle permanent immigration and temporary immigration.
      Aside from Ben Franklin warning us about his dislike of Germanic immigration and the unwanted influx of Irish immigrants following the potato famine, the two big waves of immigration causing the most push-back among nativivists were the Jewish immigration from Eastern Europe and the Italian immigration from Southern Italy and Sicily.
      This was permanent immigration. These people came in search of a better life, and they never looked back at what they were leaving behind.
      Mexican immigration, for a long time, was more temporary in that agricultural workers followed the harvest and the money, and at the end of the season or when they had saved up enough money, would return to their families until the start of the next season or for good if their savings allowed them a better living standard in Mexico. Only a minority actually wanted to come to the US as their permanent destination.
      But as the US tightened legislation and made crossing the border ever harder, those workers eventually were forced to come to a decision about on which side of the border they were to settle to make their living. So temporary migration became more and more permanent, as the risk of crossing the border became ever higher.
      It also contributed to a wider spread of immigrants beyond the traditional western states that used to constitute first New Spain and then Mexico, were it was possible to conduct life's daily affairs with only a knowledge of Spanish.
      So today you find immigrant labor in Washington's apple orchards, the chicken processing plants tn the South, dairy farms in the Upper Midwest and as far removed as Upstate New York and New England.

    Amazing the number of films that deal with illegal Asian trafficking.
    Not a Trump supporter, but I wonder what he would have to say about this film's anti-Asian immigration rhetoric...? Would Trump and others recognize the Racial group that is usually RESPONSIBLE for smuggling them in as cheap labour....?

      Up until a few years ago, no one conflated legal and illegal immigration. Immigration has been used as a form of invasion all throughout human history. Trump was never accused of being a racist until he ran for President. Imagine that? Got awards for helping minorities. Has had a homeless black woman living in Trump tower for well over a decade, getting 3 meals a day and fresh flowers weekly. She gave one interview before 2016 election because she was disgusted by the media calling him a racist. It is illegal to traffic human beings for any purpose. There is real slavery happening today in Lybia because of the actions of Hillary Clinton and Barrack Obama. Not too many people you can point to and say their actions are RESPONSIBLE for modern day slavery. When Bill and Hillary were stealing billions from the Haitian people, Trump was paying for eye surgeries for 200 Haitians to see again.
