Got off to a bad start with me, because both the opening Weenie King scene as well as the gun club scene went on for far too long. But there's serious humor here, along with a great romance story, and it all won me over in the end. When not bogged down by those two scenes, it moves along breezily and I loved it. Sturges has a knack for making comedies that are incredibly sexy and adult and somehow evaded the Code, and here, the "zipping the dress" scenes are really quite something.

A classic screwball comedy. Solid but far from being hilarious, romantic, educative or sexy. That said, some aspects like the Mid-Atlantic English, the train and historic fashion (and their prices) are awesome.

This is good. It's the third best Sturges behind The Lady Eve and Sullivan's Travels, but it's good. I love Claudette Colbert in It Happened One Night and she's great in this.
