Mae West: "Ain't No Sin"

Around 21 September 1934, MAE WEST was busy promoting her latest release: "Belle of the Nineties."
• • At first, Paramount Pictures was advertising this new production as "It Ain't No Sin" before re-titling the picture in which Mae West plays a St. Louis entertainer named Ruby Carter.
• • Mae West was fond of saying: "It ain't no sin if you crack a few laws now and then — — as long as you don't break any."
• • Here are some memorable lines from "Belle of the Nineties":
• • Ruby Carter: "Don't let a man put anything over on ya 'cept an umbrella."
• • Situation: Miss Ruby Carter walks off a boat.
• • Man: "Are you in town for good?"
• • Ruby: "I expect to be here — — but not for good."
• • Romantic encounter:
• • Man: "You're the kind of woman I've dreamed about — — always desired. I'm wild about you."
• • Ruby: "Some of the wildest men make the best pets."
