El magnate y la cantante.Bob Harrison, un magnate con fama de mujeriego, compra todas las entradas del teatro para ver un musical de Broadway, protagonizado por Mona Leslie, que levanta pasiones. Deslumbrado por la cantante, inicia una relación con ella.
Encantador film que mezcla comedia, drama y números musicales. El argumento está escrito por el prestigioso productor David O'Selnick, que recurrió poco tiempo después al mismo director de esta cinta, Victor Fleming, para encargarse de tomar las riendas de Lo que el viento se llevó (DeCine21).
IMDb. Broadway singer Mona Leslie is wooed and wedded by monied playboy Bob Harrison. When she travels home to see his folks, Mona finds local society - and even Harrison's father - closing ranks against them. Hovering around is her secret admirer and agent Ned Riley, whose slightly shady business activities hardly endear him to the gentry either.
AMG SYNOPSIS: Reckless is a delightfully breezy screwball comedy from the same director (Victor Fleming) and star (Jean Harlow) responsible for the celebratedBombshell (itself a film à clef loosely based on Clara Bow) -- with the added appeal of William Powell. One can readily see the chemistry between the two stars at work, which would lead to their impending marriage at the time of Harlow's death a year later. The sets for the Broadway number that Harlow's Mona Leslie performs in are also extraordinary. Mona Leslie (Jean Harlow) is an up-and-coming Broadway actress, dancer, and singer, who leads a happy-go-lucky, freewheeling lifestyle; bailed out of jail by family friend Ned Riley (William Powell), a sports promoter who loves Mona but won't slow down his lifestyle long enough to give her the satisfaction of admitting it, she performs in a bizarre "benefit" show, only to discover that she has an audience of one, wealthy admirer Bob Harrison (Franchot Tone). He declares his love for her and a romance does develop, but when he proposes marriage, he discovers that his upper-crust set won't accept a showgirl as one of their blue-blood crowd. Their romance leads to a marriage and desperate unhappiness for all concerned, most of all Harrison, whose basic neurotic nature gets worse as the marriage deteriorates. When Harrison takes his own life, Riley and Mona find themselves accused of every foul deed possible, and when Mona gives birth to a son, a legal battle ensues over custody of the child, with Harrison's family claiming that she is unfit. Finally, Mona decides to fight back -- she gets Harrison's family to stand down by giving up any claim to her late husband's money, but she must now contend with the nation's self-appointed moral guardians. No producer will take the risk of backing a show with Mona in it, but she finally gets a helping hand from Ned Riley. The movie has a few too many changes in tone, which detracts from the verisimilitude. The whole story is a film à clef based on the tragic romance between torch singer Libby Holman and tobacco heir Smith Reynolds (which also provided fodder for such à clef films as Brief Moment, Sing, Sinner, Sing, and Written on the Wind) -- and Harlow's singing is obviously dubbed, just as her dancing is doubled. Also, the songs -- except for the final two numbers -- don't quite fit with the melodrama, and the Damon Runyon-esque comic antics feel completely out of left field at times. But when she and Powell are onscreen together, the film just lofts into the air, past all of those flaws. -- Bruce Eder
AMG REVIEW: Reckless sought to make a singing and dancing star out of a talented comedian that could neither sing nor dance -- not really the recipe for a successful musical film. But then again, the cooks who made Reckless couldn't decide what kind of film they wanted to make in the first place. Thus, they threw in a crowd of songwriters who contributed songs that were really just shoehorned into the mangled plot that the screenwriter devised. Director Victor Fleming, given the unenviable job of trying to make this stew into something palatable, concentrates on coaxing decent performances from the cast, with mixed results. William Powell does just fine, giving a relaxed performance that gains in strength by avoiding excess pushing, and May Robson and Rosalind Russell make the most of their supporting roles. But Franchot Tone doesn't know what to do with his role other than look handsome, and poor Jean Harlow, clearly uncomfortable with her musical chores, never really finds her character. Her singing is dubbed and much of her dancing is doubled, but her distress is still obvious. And while she has some individual comic and dramatic moments that score, they don't add up to a performance. Muddled and pointless, Reckless just never comes together. -- Craig Butler
