man wanted

December 10 movie: Man Wanted. This was a a pre-code movie about a married lady executive (Kay Francis) who hires a male secretary and then falls for him. A fun bit of fluff. It was part of a birthday tribute to Una Merkel, who played the male secretary's girlfriend. I like Una Merkel. She seemed to play only two characters: the crass best friend of the heroine, or the crass girlfriend who gets dumped for the heroine.
