In Caliente (1935)

Hard-drinking Larry MacArthur, editor of a sophisticated magazine, is taken to the Agua Caliente resort by his publisher, Harold Brandon, in order to dry out and sober up. Larry becomes interested in Rita Gomez without knowing she is a famous Spanish dancer about whom he had once written a vicious review regarding her talents. Her conniving uncle, Jose Gomez, quickly tries to cash in on her charms when he notes Larry's interest. Rita agrees to flirt and keep him in Caliente for revenge. However they fall in love but their romance is menaced by Miss Clara Thorne, a blonde gold-digger who has staked out her own claim on Larry.
