This is the story of an ego maniac who works as a tuna fisherman. He is played by Spencer Tracy. The woman he loves is played by Jean Harlow. They go through a lot of torment as they try to find a way to live with his big ego and stupid ways. This is a hilarious movie.

anyone who enjoys old movies with Jean Harlow and/or Spencer Tracy.

when Hattie (Jean Harlow) throws a mackerel at Dutch (Spencer Tracy). They throw things at each other throughout their courtship and it is pretty funny.

is good. Mickey Rooney has a prominent supporting role as a little kid. Spencer Tracy and Jean Harlow make a good pair. I thoroughly enjoyed this film.

because it is fast paced comedy in the beginning. The melodramatic part was pretty silly, but I was surprised about how the homeless guys of the Depression seem similar to some of the stuff I see today.

If you like old screwball comedies, you will enjoy this one. It was made in 1935.
