No Time for Love (1943)
Member Rating:  
Mitchell Leisen utilizes his stylistic pizzazz to enliven this romantic comedy that proves the old adage "opposites attract" -- but only after three or four reels. Claudette Colbert is Katherine Grant, an upper-crust fashion photographer who has a gang of admirers snapping at her heels. When her vindictive editor tries to teach her a lesson for her snobbishness by giving her an assignment photographing lower-class workers digging a tunnel, she falls for Jim Ryan (Fred MacMurray). Ryan is also attracted to her, so when she leaves her camera tripod in the tunnel, Ryan obligingly returns it to her. When Ryan returns to the job site, he is ribbed by his co-workers. Ryan loses his head and gets into a fight and is subsequently suspended from his job. Katherine, feeling guilty about Ryan being suspended from his job (and also looking for an excuse to have him around), hires him as her assistant. But in his new job, Ryan starts to put the make on one of Katherine's flirtatious models, Darlene (June Havoc). Katherine must now find a way to overcome her superior attitude and make her true feelings known to Ryan. ~ Paul Brenner, Rovi

    BB has it for rent just database errors. Type "Claudette Colbert Collection" in the search window, click on "View All Versions to rent" and chose "No Time For Love " (1943), second movie on this disk - "The Egg and I" (1947) - invisible for BB, but it's there... I've sent them e-mail to fix it, BB ignored that,.

    While this is not my favorite Colbert/MacMurray film, Claudette Colbert plays a much more modern woman in this film with great success. Entertaining film and worth watching!
