Comment
A singer (Marion Burns) signs up to join a troupe of cabaret girls in Panama. On the way she meets a man (Preston Foster) who runs a mine, who then goes off to run the mine. She is shown the ropes by one of the other girls (Arline Judge) in the troupe and she meets a rich pilot (Kenneth MacKenna) , who wants to marry her, but he is already married. This has a couple of feisty women working in a sleazy environment and whilst the characters may be stereotypes the plot moves along well although the final few scenes produce a somewhat abrupt and contrived ending. Marion Burns and Arline Judge are convincing in the two main female roles but the male leads are less convincing.
