I Sell Anything (1934)

I didn’t really get behind Pat O’Brien’s over zealous portrayal of Spot Cash Cutler the crooked auctioneer, but I did enjoy the heist-quality and double crossings in this story. O’Brien is stuck running auction scams on the lowly rubes of 2nd Avenue until 5th Avenue rich girl Claire Dodd pulls one on him and then convinces him to move on to richer fare. The ending is completely contrived and suspect, but the ride is cute and fun and not bad for its relatively short runtime.
