The Life of the Party

I love old movies, the older, the better but this was awful. Sure, Winnie Lightner is fun to watch, very expressive with quick and witty one-liners. Charles Ludels ruined it for me, my god, the screaming, the yelling, throwing tantrums all over the place grated on my nerves and made me unsettled. It's an ok story, same old...."down-on-their-luck showgirls seeks rich men...and lots of hijinks ensue" nothing new, same old tired vintage hollywood storyline. Some vintage movies hold up nicely with a budding star or an enlightening story, this was sad, boring, and monotonous. It's fun to watch a 90 year old movie, glad they're still around, but don't expect much here.
