How it feels

A group of stars gets tangled in romantic situations. This is a pre-Code comedy from 1933 that was adapted from a stage play. The movie relies on silly mix-ups and misunderstandings for laughs.

What happens

Love, Honor, and Oh Baby! is a 1933 American pre-Code comedy film, starring Slim Summerville, ZaSu Pitts, and George Barbier. A group of stars rounds out the rest of the cast that includes Donald Meek, Lucille Gleason and Varree Teasdale. Adapted from the stage play Oh, Promise Me (which was also the film's working title) it is ”a situation comedy, carrying a romantic twist”. The film did not do well nor was it well reviewed by The New York Times, which called it unfunny. The 1940 Universal Pictures film with almost the same title is not a remake.
