The title suggest something slicker and faster moving, but actually takes a long time to tell a rather basic story in which everyone talks too much and too slowly. George Bancroft is fun as rough diamond Joe Forziati who spends a inordinate amount of time trying to smooth his rough edges before becoming smitten with socialite Mary Astor. The plot then moves from comedy to sentimentality to contrived until a dramatic finale with some superb atmospheric photography and action.
