Ever Since Eve has super-annuated Marion Davies playing a secretary who is too good looking for her own good. She gets too much attention from the lecherous office men she types for. So she quits and gets a reverse makeover so she can do her job by day, without getting leched, and then enjoy her own life in the evening.
The film also suffers by having unfunny sidekicks Frank McHugh, Allan Jenkins and Barton MacLane, to say nothing of nails-on-a-chalkboard Patsy Kelly.
Robert Montgomery does his best with the thin material. He gets stuck with the ''ugly" version of Davies but he wanted a good-looking secretary. He's miffed. She acts like a nerd. Hijinks ensue.
It's a painfully unfunny, try-hard snooze-a-palooza that probably resurfaced in the 1950s as the plot of an I Love Lucy episode.
