Storyline

Too Hot To Handle  Chris Hunter is a sly newsreel reporter. While in Shanghai doing reports on the Chinese-Japanese war, he meets pilot Alma Harding. At first she doesn’t trust him, but by a trick he manages to get her hired as his assistant. During an adventurous expedition through the jungles of South America he manages to change her view of him.

Never a dull moment!

Too Hot To Handle  The epitome of the madcap comedy/adventure genre! From the Japanese invasion of China to the bustle of midtown Manhatten to the Amazon jungle, never a dull moment. This could have served as the prototype for the “Indiana Jones” films or “Romancing the Stone”.

War correspondent Gable is not beyond inventing a scoop if none is readily available. Myrna Loy, playing a sort of Amelia Earhart role, is duped by a rival news organization into a ploy to beat Gable at his own game. How the action moves from China to New York to a burning ship off the east coast to South America is….too complicated to describe in a short review. This may not be the best Gable film or the most convincing role ever played by Myrna Loy (although it’s quite similar to her “Thin Man” roles), but it is highly entertaining. Both the filming and the story may be a little simplistic for today’s taste and is certainly a far fetched plot but it’s a good rip-roaring yarn nevertheless.

Masterpiece
 
When I saw the first time this movie I was a teenager and now after 15 years I have the same feelings, it’s a masterpiece, really a great movie of the ’30s. Yes I’m a fan of Clark Gable and Myrna Loy. Everybody can enjoy the speech the timing, the screenplay. Gable at his best, don’t forget that in ’38 Gable and Loy were nominated King and Queen of Hollywood. Why?

Just watch the movie and immediately realized!Let’s have a lot of fun and malencony of a period that will never come back again.

Walter Connoly was a great actor and his part of journalist was remarkable.

Really a must to see for all of you who like the golden period of Hollywood and the movies of his king and queen.
