1941
****
Director: Preston Sturges
Cast: Barbara Stanwyck, Henry Fonda, Charles Coburn, Eugene Pallette, William Demarest, Eric Blore, Melville Cooper
An entertaining romantic screwball comedy about a con woman who woos a wealthy bachelor not once but twice. Predictably love conquers all, but there are some amusing and wonderfully absurd twists on the way there.
