''Kansas City Princess'' is a 1934 film directed by William Keighley.
Rosie and Marie (Creator/JoanBlondell and Glenda Farrell) are two vivacious manicurists in Kansas City, MO. Rosie is engaged to "Dynamite", a gangster who is loud and crude but genuinely affectionate for her. Dynamite gives Rosie a sizeable diamond engagement ring, but Marie disapproves. After Dynamite leaves on a trip to St. Louis, Marie coaxes Rosie into flirting with other men, in hopes of getting a better catch.
This leads to disaster. The man Rosie flirts with, "Jimmy the Dude", is also a gangster, and he steals Rosie's ring. Rosie and Marie hurriedly leave town, just as Dynamite gets back, retrieves the ring from Jimmy, and realizes what's up. Wacky hijinks ensue, as Dynamite chases Rosie and Marie all the way to Paris, while on the way the gang gets tangled up with a meek, affable billionaire named Junior Ashcraft.
