Murder in Greenwich Village (1937)

Richard Arlen is a struggling photographer. Faye Wray is a society daughter (Thurston Howell is the father) who gets involved with him and his model partners in the business, one of whom is Raymond Walburn, the Senator, a pompous but lovable blowhard. In order to avoid a scandal, Wray tells Howell that she is engaged to Arlen, and the fun begins. Naturally, they do end up sweethearts, but there are all sorts of action and complications in the meantime. Arlen and Wray team up very well, and their fusses are convincing and funny.

The photography studio has an old car horn doorbell that goes off every time it opens, and gets pretty old by the time the movie is over.
