Serial star Buster Crabbe and the great Ida Lupino star in Search for Beauty, a romantic Pre-Code comedy about two amorous Olympic athletes (he a swimmer; she a diver) brought in to run a health-and-beauty magazine. Don (Crabbe) and Barbara (Lupino) are really excited about their new venture, but they are completely unaware that the owners of the magazine are con artists who have different plans for the publication’s future as a salacious “skin” rag. In the process of finding a way to resist the conspirators’ schemes, Don and Barbara must fight to keep their relationship together. Get ready for laughs, romance and extraordinary dance sequences worthy of a golden medal! (Kino Lorber)

angielski A gem pulled from Cinemaggedon. Dumb entertainment created just to show 30 beauty pageant winners from all over the world parading around in their swimsuits. The first half is alright. Through overlapping dialogues, surprisingly sprinkled with one funny line after, it deals with the founding of the Health and Exercise magazine, its business plan and finally the idea to create something like a beauty and health centre in a place called Health Acres. In the second half, there's a 10-minute swimsuit workout, beauty pageant winners – couples in swimsuits – parading around with flags in a stadium like at the Olympics, parties attended in robes and underwear (probably healthy), and guests forced to exercise as part of the daily routine to keep fit and eternally young. Simply, a cult of beauty and youth as a religion and overall one big 80-minute movie oddity. ()
