He's a Honey is a 1932 short musical comedy film directed by Walter Graham. It stars Harry Barris and features Helen Mann, Eleanor Hunt, and Edgar Kennedy. Its working title was Wedding Night.[1]

Plot[edit]

Harry Barris plays a sought-after bandleader who wants to marry Helen Mann's character. Her father, played by Edgar Kennedy, disapproves. Nevertheless, she is won in the end.

Cast[edit]

Reception[edit]

"This is for ardent Harry Barris fans only," a critic wrote for Photoplay.[3] It was written in Motion Picture Herald that Harry Barris was "a far better musician than comedian." However, the critic strongly praised Edgar Kennedy's performance.[4] Screenland described it as a "peppy song-and-dance comedy, with Harry making a personal hit in it."[5] Bobby Vernon's role as a heavy was a change of pace compared to his earlier roles.『He gained a howl when he said 'Scram' in a deep basso voice—it came as such a surprise in a tense moment,』wrote a critic for Hollywood Filmograph.[2]
