Who's Mr. Sweeney?
4 April 2024
Charles Ruggles is an editorial writer made meek and mild by decades of working under the stifling Berton Churchill. When Ann Dvorak takes an interest in him and old college friend Eugene Pallette comes to town and they go off on a tear, he finds his old fire and writes his editorial his way.

Director Edward Ludwig doesn't add much to this movie, but the cast is good, and Eugene Pallette gives one of his best performances in this worm-turning comedy. Ruggles moves nicely nicely from a milsop to a man willing to assert himself. With Robert Barrat, Dorothy Tree, and an uncredited etra role by Fred MacMurray.
