Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Me and My Gal is a 1932 film directed by Raoul Walsh.Danny Dolan (Spencer Tracy) is a cop on the beat on the docks of Manhattan's Lower East Side. He knows all the locals and often stops at a chowder house by the docks, where he flirts with sassy cashier Helen Riley (Joan Bennett, still in her blonde phase).One day Danny and Al, a police detective, have to go diving into the water to save a drunk who falls in. Unfortunately, Al was there to tail a gangster by the name of Duke Castenega who was supposed to be arriving at the docks via ocean liner. Duke makes it back into New York while Al and Danny are fishing out the drunkard. And as it turns out, Duke is the old boyfriend of Helen's sister, Kate.Not to be confused with Judy Garland vehicle For Me and My Gal.

Breaking the Fourth Wall: At Kate's wedding reception, her father Pat comes into the foreground, looks directly at the camera, and says "Well, who'd like a drink?" At the end, after Danny and Helen board the boat for their honeymoon, he does this again, facing the camera and saying "Well, it's all over, come on, let's have another drink."

Blowing a Raspberry: Joe, the obnoxious drunk who keeps stumbling around the docks and bothering people, continually does this at the end of arguments (that he starts).

Belligerent Sexual Tension: In the usual way, as Danny and Helen fire insults and snark at each other in a way that shows their mutual attraction.
