Witty, clever script. Romance and comedy. Henry Fonda is very funny and very good in this role. On NY Times top 10 list. Can watch with family, too.

I don't usually like Black and white films but this one was different. Great movie from a time when they knew how to make a good movie. The characters are fun to watch. The slap stick can but a bit much but doesn't ruin the movie. A very good Screw Ball Comedy.

Some of Preston Sturges's work is boring and pretentious, but this movie is funny, has plot twists, and a happy ending. It is fun to watch a young Henry Fonda work with Barbara Stanwyck. The supporting cast includes Eric Blore, a comic mainstay in some of the Astaire/Rogers films. A good plot and excellent cast make this well worth seeing.

I'm a fan of old movies and I like both Barbara Stanwyck and Henry Honda but I'm not a fan of screwball or slap stick comedy so this movie rubs me the wrong way. If you like this type of 40s romantic comedy, watch it but don't listen to the commentary. The commentator basically just rehashes what is on the screen. I don't need anyone telling me what I can see and hear for myself as a layperson. I like commentary that gives information you do not get just by watching the movie - in other words, behind the scenes information.
