Lovin' the Ladies is a 1930 movie in which a man makes a bet that he can make any woman and any man fall in love with each other. He's taken up on the challenge and presented a working man and an extremely snobby upper class woman. Along the way, however, his male target finds himself falling in love with the better's girlfriend instead of the woman he's supposed to be pursuing. This is a quick, light story that I had very few lingering feelings about. I had a decent time watching it as it played out, but almost immediately forgot I had seen it. There are some mildly entertaining mistaken identity moments, and our romantic hero and heroine are a nice couple, but not a lot to make the film stand out very much.
