Bubbling Over (1934)

A cute little musical short film. Ethel (Ethel Waters) is a hard working housewife who toils away in her house full of loafers. But all that changes when they are told by a bogus Swami (Frank Wilson) that a rich relative will soon come and be willing to share his wealth, unfortunately it isn't quite true...

Well the story is pretty meaningless though some of the humour is pretty funny though dated. The film is a showcase for some nice music, especially from Ethel Waters and the Southernaires Quartet. Just enjoy it for what it is.
