A woman married to a broke architect decides to divorce him out of "practicality". Along the way, she meets a charming millionaire. I've been meaning to see more of Preston Sturges' filmography since I really loved his other two films. This one is yet another great one. It is a screwball comedy. Apart from a few politically incorrect but of-its-time depiction of African-Americans, it holds up very, very well. Surprisingly quite a bit racy! I'm surprised the words "ass" and "sex" sneaked through. Is this pre-Code? I don't think so. Correct me if I'm wrong! The dialogue is sharp and witty and the cast plays it to the hilt. They don't make them like these anymore.

Give or take a Jerry Lewis masterpiece of two, this is the greatest comedy of the classical Hollywood era. People complain that all the opulence adds up to a willful retreat from the realities of WWII. But the film is about who can get away with what and as such, brings us closer to the reality of people getting thrown into ovens than any of the justly forgotten flag-wavers of the era. Best line: "A posse??!?"

Prime Preston Sturges, which means sublime sophisticated zaniness.
