I'm No Angel (1933)
“Why don’t you come up sometime, and see me?”
Everyone knows the quote – even people who don’t know who said it and have never seen a movie older than 1980. But have you seen the movie? Even though it was used on the publicity poster for I’m No Angel, it actually comes from She Done Him Wrong, another Mae West comedy costarring Cary Grant, with his old teeth.
This one is still worth watching, though. I’m No Angel boasts more funny one-liners from comic legend Mae West than you can shake a stick at. From “When I’m good, I’m very good. But when I’m bad, I’m better,” to “I see a man in your future--” “What, only one?” you’ll be howling with laughter every time Mae opens her mouth. In this movie, she plays a circus performer with a great sense of humor who wants nothing more than to find a millionaire for her sugar daddy. She visits a fortune teller who describes her perfect man, and the search is on! You’ll see Edward Arnold in the supporting cast, as well as Hattie McDaniel, in the role that first got her noticed and remembered. Yes, she made a career of maids, but this is the one that started it all. Want to see Mammy give as good as she gets to Mae West? Then you’ve got to rent I’m No Angel.
