SYNOPSIS:
Bank executive Josef von Ullrich should be paying attention to the figures in the company ledgers, not the figure of the pretty stenographer sitting alongside his desk. So he fires her and ultimately hires an efficient mouse of a young woman who is plain, practical and will always strike the right keys. What’s more, Josef knows she will never become an attractive distraction to him. But the wallflower is about to blossom. A Depression-era working girl goes from ugly duckling to graceful swan, and wish-fulfillment reigns in Beauty and the Boss, a sometimes racy pre-Production Code comedy.

Marian Marsh portrays the emerging beauty and Warren William is the boss in this second and last pairing of the stars of Under Eighteen.

BEAUTY AND THE BOSS crackles with wit, sauciness, naughtiness, and pure joy! Warren William and Marian Marsh work very well together proving how wonderful pre-code movies were! Charles Butterworth's well crafted observations are wonderful, too. The best years for these fast-paced and smart Warner productions were the years 1932 to 35, but many were made as only Warners could make them!

Included with this nice transfer is a snappy original trailer with loads of those great graphics Warner's publicity department created so well.
