One of the funniest, most absurd screwball comedies. The Weenie King cracks me up every time.

Prime Preston Sturges, which means sublime sophisticated zaniness.

Fantastic movie!!!!! Loved every minute of the movie!!! Claudette Colbert is amazing in this. Joel McCrea is wonderful too!!! An adorable movie that I would love to watch again!!!

charming story, Claudette Colbertis beautiful. Preston Sturges well ahead of his time..if maybe slightly before ours.. i can understand the negative comments about this movie, but personally i found it great and it now sits among my favourites.

"That's one of the tragedies of this life: that the men who are most in need of a beating up are always enormous!" Having come to the conclusion that her struggling entrepreneur husband (Joel McCrea) would be better off without her, Claudette Colbert heads for Palm Beach in search of a quick divorce and a rich new husband to bankroll his predecessor's pipe dream. One of the problems I have with The Great McGinty is that I'm more concerned for Mrs McGinty than her husband at the end of that picture; similarly here, my sympathies for Mary Astor and, especially, poor Rudy Vallee exceed my happiness for Colbert and McCrea. Ever the craftsman, Sturges does make provision for Astor and Vallee's respective future happinesses, but his solution is too preposterously contrived to completely satisfy. Colbert and McCrea play their parts beautifully, but for much of the movie their characters are rather unattractive: he's surly and jealous and she's a gold-digger. Astor and Vallee provide most of the laughs.
