Warren William - the man you hate to love...

...but you just can't help yourself. William is perfect here as an efficient German bank president and baron, totally consumed with business by day and with romancing the ladies -lots of them - at night. He only has problems when his two interests converge. This usually occurs because he has a beautiful secretary. His usual solution - to fire the secretary and get her out of his business life, and then make her one of his many mistresses.

The baron tires of this repetitive problem, and vows that his next secretary will be a plain practical woman for whom he will have no attraction. So into his life walks Susie Sachs (Marian Marsh), "the church mouse". The cutest scene of the film is where Susie tricks her way into see the baron and tells him about the plight of her class -"the mice" - the unemployed and hungry. The baron is quite interested in her story. You see, he is not such a bad guy. It just never occurred to him that there might be a girl of her age in Germany more interested in a good meal than a diamond bracelet. He's never seen that side of life and therefore not given it much thought. He hires her, and she works out quite well for him until a business trip to Paris brings the Baron quite a few surprises.

This film was really a delight with very good dialogue and animated performances. Charles Butterworth is really quite good as comic support in these early Warner Brothers talkies. He plays the baron's assistant who is constantly writing down instructions on his cuffs and seems to have no objections when he is told he will be working all night and won't be allowed time to eat. David Manners plays the baron's younger brother who sees the beauty in Susie even when she is playing the frump.

Curiosidades
A Little Casual History: Negócios à Parte (1932) was filmed in the San Fernando Valley from the Warner Bros. Studio along the Santa Monica Mountain --- on the other side of the HOLLYWOOD Sign. The 1930's were the time when "Movies" (From Silent to 'Talkies') meant "Hollywood" generically.

Still, Warner Bros. filmed north of the Hollywood Sign in the San Fernando Valley. Still, another piece of history was this film was released in 1932 after being shot on the sound stage a good five to 15 minutes by car-- before there were "Freeways"---from Burbank Airport (aka, Bob Hope Airport, etc.)

Two minutes into the film, the Viennese bank president's plane lands. That airport was "United Airport" then; Burbank Airport for decades to come.

"So what," comes to mind. This was a historical location for American Aviation. As his plane taxis on the tarmac, the camera capture the barren land and the landmark mountains behind, barren of the housing boom following World War II.

This is the airport were Amelia Earhart called her home base. Released in 1932, pictures and film exist of the first lady of aviation at the same Burbank Airport Beauty And The Boss did rare location shots. Earhart hangered her plane in the same time frame until her assumed death---July 2, 1937.

Lost in the multiple airport scenes, such as where The Church Mouse directed her Boss' lover to the wrong plane, there were tumbleweeds, no Interstate 5 "Golden State" Freeway. Millions of locals, visitors foreign and domestic have traveled over the last some 60 years.

Yet, the Earhart Electra sat in the "Burbank Airport" hanger before being lost some five years later. It is a metaphor how the minds of girls, mothers and grandmothers lost track of this famed Airport in a throwaway scene. A scene showing off in the distance Los Angeles Suburbs a desert locale, and the home base of one of America's greatest aviators.
