- Synopsis:
- Tiger Kid (Roger Pryor) is an up-and-coming boxer who's concentrating on the wrong kind of "knockout" - the electrifying Ruby Carter (Mae West). When Tiger's manager tricks Ruby into leaving town, she travels to New Orleans to headline with Duke Ellington and his Orchestra at Ace Lamont's Sensation House. But Ace has eyes for Ruby's plentiful diamonds and plots a robbery. As always, Mae out-smarts her adversaries and proves she has no intention of losing her jewels, or her man. This Mae West classic features a spectacular opening act in which the enchanting temptress performs in a variety of unique costumes, ending with Mae as the Statue of Liberty.
