We're Not Dressing (1934)

Paramount Pictures
Directed by Norman Taurog
My rating: 1.5 stars out of 4
IMDb
(DVD, Universal)

Mindless hokum from Bing and company, stranded on a desert island with Carole Lombard. It's loosely based on the Admiral Crichton story, the characters even reference it, but it's all just an excuse for unmemorable songs by Bing and harmless lovemaking with Lombard. Comedy relief is provided by a bear on roller skates (actually a kid in a bear suit) and Burns and Allen; I preferred the bear.
