Don't Bet on Love - 1933 ***


Notably the film that took Ginger and Lew up the aisle, this is a mediocre movie about a plumber who is addicted to betting on horses because he gets hints before each race. His girlfriend Molly will not marry him unless he stops his gambling and saves up $1000. He wins the money but continues to gamble, and although Molly is not happy, she takes his word that he will never put money on races again. However, when she finds out on her wedding day that he is taking her to Saratoga for their honeymoon because of the horses, she has had enough, and finishes with him. 
I love Lew Ayres and I'm pretty keen on Ginger as well, so this it was nice to see how they met and got together.
