rico,It's rare that I disagree with you, but I have to say that I find the 1933 "Lady for a Day" a real treat all the way through. It's such a wonderfully, fast and light fantasy from that era much like "It's a Wonderful Life", "It Happened One Night", "Our Man Godfrey", "Ninotchka", and "Destry Rides Again". I always find it enjoyable. The casting is just perfect and there's that great rapid fire dialogue.
"Fluff"- yes, but the best, most satisfying kind of fluff and "typical" of the best.
Cheers,
