How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

Mae West commands the screen as a charming, quick-witted nightclub owner juggling lovers and danger with unflappable swagger. It's a breezy pre-code comedy where sexual innuendo and criminal intrigue serve as mere backdrop for one woman's refusal to apologize for her appetites.
