series American Gagsters: Great Comedy Teams
Directed by Gregory La Cava | 1936
With William Powell,Carole Lombard,Alice Brady,Gail Patrick,Eugene Pallette
This definitive screwball comedy stars genre virtuoso Lombard as a scatterbrained scavenger-hunting socialite who plucks "forgotten man" Godfrey (Powell) from the city dump, makes him her new butler, and watches him transform her coterie of eccentric relatives. The first film to receive Oscar nominations in all four acting categories, with Depression-era social commentary lending a subtly serious note to the madcap proceedings.
