Primping Mae West

with coterie of soulful women to dote on her, the rapport in this scene is rhythmic as well as righteous. Mae's attitude toward the wench who interrupts is further proof that she was not just performing, but showing us what she was really all about. A great scene among several great scenes in I'm no Angel with Cary Grant 1933

That's the kind of enthusiam I'm talking about! Stick with Me kid and maybe you can come up and see Me sometime as long as you're happy to see Me of course because when I'm good, I'm very good, but when I'm bad, I'm better.

@STORMYB She is saying "HOLD 'EM. Here is what she is singing: I play to win the game of romance With high cards in my hands But, I have been trumped by an ace of hearts That feelings oh, so grand! Give me my fine furs and fancy gowns I've found a new way to go to town I'm high, (yes ma'am) I'm low (mmm, mmm) Takes a good man to break me (sure does) No man can shake me (I knows it) Until I let him go (yass'em) HOLD'EM!, come on, dum dee, HOLD'EM!, ha ha, dum dee, HOLD'EM!
