Buck Benny in Paris, a troupe of shapely American chorus girls, gowns by je ne sais qui, a sprinkling of music, Joan Bennett, some gags and a plot from the days of the silent film-all together they go to make up "Artists and Models Abroad." Of course the film makes no sense whatever; it is a conglomeration of disjointed ideas, situations, people. But it does manage to be entertaining, fairly consistently. "Mother Nature's big mistake," our own rip-snortin' Buck, is stranded in Paris together with a few dozen bathing beauty winners, and not a penny to his name. Non, pas un son. During the course of his wanderings in and out of hotel doors (and windows) he happens upon the fourth richest girl in America and kindly offers her a place to sleep. Believe it or not, out of this emerges a fashion show, a stolen necklace, a happy marriage, and the Yacht Club Boys. From any technical point of view, the picture is worthless; but for a tired Harvard man, just having staggered through a bitter examination period and not inclined to be critical, the very inanity of the whole should prove a welcome relief.

Also unimportant but generally amusing is "Thanks For the Memory," the co-feature. Adequate and often funny, it should never have been billed with Jack Benny, for the films are too much alike.
