They are making a tour of the whole world, and will stop over here a couple of days just to see Madame La Gimp.. Little Manuel is standing alongside Judge Henry G. Blake, and he explains in Spanish to Mr. and Mrs. Conde and the others that Willie K. Vanderbilt is a very large millionaire, and Mr. and Mrs. Conde seem much interested, anyway, though naturally Madame La Gimp and Judge Henry G. Blake are jerry to Big Nig, while Madame La Gimps baby and the young guy are interested in nobody but each other. There are no apples, there are no whimsical twists, there are no tearful moments. Dave the Dude (Glenn Ford), a very successful New York City gangster, has one superstition: he believes that the apples he buys from alcoholic street peddler Apple Annie (Bette Davis) bring him luck.

By this time anybody can see that the judge is commencing to believe that all this is on the level and that he is really entertaining celebrities in his own home. Do you know who I am?, I remember you, Madame La Gimp says. She has her gray hair piled up high on her head, with a big Spanish comb in it, and she reminds me of a picture I see somewhere, but I do not remember just where. I never see a nicer-looking young couple, and anybody can see they are very fond of each other indeed. He then meets Elizabeth "Queenie" Martin (Hope Lange), the daughter of a recently murdered friend and deeply indebted nightclub owner. By and by there is dancing going on, and a good time is being had by one and all, including Mr. and Mrs. Conde. Betty's role as "Apple Annie" is priceless.! I used to watch this movie once and again when I was a child. But fate in the form of a sympathetic mayor and governor and their entourages unexpectedly steps in and allows Annie to maintain her charade and keep Louise from learning the truth before she sails back to Spain with her husband-to-be. And her baby, Eulalie, in a white dress is about as pretty a little doll as you will wish to see, and nobody can blame Judge Henry G. Blake for copping a kiss off of her now and then. He gets me to one side, too, and wishes to know who Herbert Bayard Swope is, and when I explain to him, the Pale Face Kid gets so swelled up he will not speak to Death House Donegan, who is only Mister William Muldoon., Well, it seems to me they are getting too strong when they announce, Vice-President of the United States, the Honorable Charles Curtis, and in pops Guinea Mike, and I say as much to Dave the Dude, who is running around every which way looking after things, but he only says, Well, if you do not know it is Guinea Mike, will you know it is not Vice-President Curtis?. One of the street people says that she can remember when Annie always looked like that. (We never know the details of Annie's history, but her upper-crust origins are clear.)

Riskin's version deviated from the original Runyon story primarily in that it linked its central character and a number of plot developments to the millions of Americans who were suffering as a result of the Great Depression.

He was among several performers Capra wanted but failed to secure for roles in the film. It seems Madame La Gimp does a little scrubbing business around a swell apartment hotel on Park Avenue that is called the Marberry, and she cops stationery there and writes her baby in Spain on this stationery, saying this is where she lives, and how rich and aristocratic her husband is. Bette Davis' guttersnipe perhaps too easily transforms into a regal lady but she is wonderful here no matter. Frank Capra's Lady for a Day (1933), adapted from Damon Runyon's 1929 story "Madame La Gimp" by screenwriter Robert Riskin, is excellent pre-Code Capra, funny and warm, and sentimental in the good sense, before the "corn" in "Capracorn" began to seep in a little too deeply into his pictures..

The judge tells me that he is afraid he will not make much of a husband because he tries it before several times on his own hook and is always a bust, but as long as this time it is not to be anything serious, he will tackle it. By and by I figure on taking the wind, and I look for Mr. and Mrs. Conde to tell them good night, but Mr. Conde and Miss Missouri Martin are still dancing, and Miss Missouri Martin is pouring conversation into Mr. Condes ear by the bucketful, and while Mr. Conde does not savvy a word she says, this makes no difference to Miss Missouri Martin. You've got to see it to belove it! Supporting players Peter Falk, Jack Elam, Ellen Corby and Ann-Margret in her film debut add some sparkle to the heavy-handed proceedings, but Ford is smug and tiresome as Dave the Dude, Hope Lange colorless as floozy singer Queenie. Apple Annie (Bette Davis) makes her living as a gin-sauced, basket-carrying, apple-selling NYC street woman. Easy to follow, filled with smart humor and better acting. If you're not made of stone and/or your levels of cynicism have not reached inhuman stages, you're going to enjoy this very much. Dave counters by demanding $100,000 "as a token of your good faith.". The cast, direction and screenplay are delightful and although being talkative and long, it is such a good film that the viewer does not feel the time passing.

Afterwards he tells me he is very sorry I make him hurry up this way, because of course after the last shot he is never going to get the guy from Providence to play him pool even for fun, and the judge tells me the guy sizes up as a right good thing, at that.

It is not like Judge Henry G. Blake to tie himself up to the plumbing business. She fails to beget your sympathy. A group of Annie's friends from the streets are watching from a distance. Louise has been led to believe her mother is a society matron named Mrs. E. Worthington Manville who lives at the Hotel Marberry. I figure the chances are Judge Henry G. Blake is getting a swelled head already, not to tumble up a guy who helps him get his job, but even at that I wish to say the old judge looks immense in his swallowtail coat, bowing and giving one and all the castor-oil smile. On the night of the reception, the police certain Dave is responsible for the missing reporters surround Missouri's club, where the gang has assembled for a final rehearsal. You are still beautiful..
