Entertainment Reviews:
It isn't without some zip, though you have to wonder why the producers bothered when the censors demanded that the dancers be shown only from the neck up.

Chicago Reader
Although a stream of hard-boiled wisecracks keeps things amusing, the plot gets tied up in the usual dreary whodunit business of providing motives for all and sundry.

Time Out
Rating: 2/5 --
Nothing more than a mystery melodrama with a backstage setting. Not a good mystery exercise either.

New York Times
Gallant trouping by Barbara Stanwyck, colorful background provided by Stromberg, and speedy direction by William Wellman, carry picture through for good entertainment for general audiences.

Description by OLDIES.com:
Music...Mystery...Murder...! That's what awaits viewers of this memorable movie from director William A. Wellman (The Public Enemy, The Ox-Bow Incident). Barbara Stanwyck stars in one of her sassiest roles as Deborah Hoople, AKA Dixie Daisy, a brassy burlesque performer who is suspected of murder. Based on The G-String Murders, a novel by the queen of burlesque, Gypsy Rose Lee, this feature earned an Oscar nomination for best music and will keep you guessing until the end!
