Suzy

Jean Harlow (title character), American showgirl in London suddenly without a gig, rehearsing her scheme to land presumably wealthy Franchot Tone, whom she met the night before, has a confab with nosy landlady Una O'Connor until he arrives, confounding expectations, early in Suzy, 1936.

The hand of Dorothy Parker, among three credited writers, seems apparent here, as American title character Jean Harlow, entertaining in France during WWI, has this crackling bit with playboy war hero Andre (Cary Grant), whom she's just met, in Suzy, 1936.

Opening scene, London 1914, title character Jean Harlow is a headliner in a London revue, which is closing, so she is quick to disrobe and discuss plans with friend Maisie (Inez Courtney), in her fourth-to-last picture, MGM's Suzy, 1936, with Cary Grant and Franchot Tone.
