Time Out for Rhythm (1941)


Columbia Pictures
Directed by Sidney Salkow
My rating: 2 stars out of 4
IMDb Wikipedia
(Blu-ray, Mill Creek)

Rudy Vallee and Richard Lane team up to form a New York City talent agency. Lane is in love with nightclub singer Rosemary Lane (no relation), who proceeds to pit the two men against each other to advance her career. Meanwhile, Vallee meets and falls in love with Lane's maid, who happens to be a gifted dancer. He tries unsuccessfully to get her work, but the opportunity to produce a variety show forces the old friends back together, in the process revealing the true character of their respective girlfriends. The appearance of the Three Stooges throughout the film as out-of-work actors vying for the attention of the talent agency the only redeeming factor in otherwise well-worn plot.
