Ann Sothern as “Maisie”, ca. 1939

“Congo Maisie” (1940), on rewatch is confirmed as my least favorite of the Maisies — the Ann Sothern series that has four or five films I really love and several other good ones.
The issue here is not the main storyline, which is solid, but the setting—which the filmmakers use to portray all the African characters in horribly demeaning ways, sadly not atypical of the times.

Ann Sothern in “Gold Rush Maisie” (1940) — one of my all-time favorites
-
Ann Sothern in my favorite of all the Maisie movies, “Gold Rush Maisie” (1940).
“MAISIE GOES A-MINING.... Ann Sothern's back again as Maisie, the stranded showgirl, and in Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer's "Gold Rush Maisie" she's occupied with trying to find a little gold in them thar Arizona hills. Note the costume in which she sets out….”
