Witty and sophisticated comedy from 1939, a Hollywood peak. Including the sassy Don Ameche, bravura Mary Astor, and John Barrymore, having a ball.

A film with a screenplay by the great Billy Wilder featuring a host of great lines.

Hedda Hopper: I'm being sued for 50,000 francs!
Claudette: You don't know Eve Peabody!
John Barrymore: well, anything that he says.

Pounce!

Her first metallic gown had me rolling on the floor in ecstasy.

Every time Hedda Hopper pops up in a movie. I always say to myself "there's Hedda Hopper".
