Theodora Goes Wild--Pounce on TCM!

This zesty 1936 classic stars the peerless Irene Dunne as the closeted :) Theodora Lynn who writes a novel as Caroline Adams that shocks her hometown of Lynnfield. Nommed for an Oscar this perf was her breakthrough as a comedienne of the first rank with Carole Lombard and Myrna Loy. Sad to say none of these women ever won an Oscar.

Go to TCM now and watch how to "act" comedy along with Thomas Mitchell and Melvyn Douglas.

The Academy should of given her a Special Oscar....Damn, she lived to be 92. After five Oscar Nominations for Best Actress, the Academy never did....I really didn't know who she was, until I saw her in "I Remember Mama" in the 90's....(my favorite Irene Dunne Movie)

This is yet another classic film NOT on DVD. The studio is Columbia; write to them.

The director died young; I believe his last film was with Joan Crawford, THE LAST OF MRS. CHEYNEY in 1937.

THEODORA is a rare video; those who appreciate sophisticated screwball comedy and want to learn timing should find this film.
