Indiscreet (1931 film)

Indiscreet is a 1931 American PreCode comedy film directed by Leo McCarey and starring Gloria Swanson and Ben Lyon. The screenplay by Buddy G. DeSylva, Lew Brown, and Ray Henderson, based on their story Obey That Impulse, originally was written as a fullfledged musical, but only two songs If You Havent Got Love and Come to Me remained when the film was released. The film is available on DVD.

In his review in the New York Times, Mordaunt Hall observed, It may have its off moments so far as the few serious incidents are concerned, but when it stoops to farce, there is no denying its jollity . . . on the whole, it is a wellworked out entertainment, wherein gusts of merriment cause one to overlook its occasional flaws . . . Now and again the film sobers up, but the director and the authors have solved a way of inoculating it with further mirth, and even at the end there is a streak of fun that is almost Chaplinesque.
