Rain or Shine (1930)

A circus manager is in love with the circus owner, whom he promised to take care of when her father died. She is in love with another fellow. The circus is very close to bankruptcy. They stop at the town where the circus owner's sweetheart's family lives.

Entertaining throughout. What surprised me most was to see a kind of humor in some sequences which is similar to the Marx Brothers'. There are some thrilling action bits too.
(Number 5 in Dale Thomajan's Top Nine for 1930.)
