series American Gagsters: Great Comedy Teams
Directed by George Cukor
With Judy Holliday,Broderick Crawford,William Holden,Howard St. John
Famous Oscar upset: Judy Holliday beat out both Bette Davis in All About Eve and Gloria Swanson in Sunset Blvd. as Best Actress for her tour-de-force turn as Billie Dawn, a ditzy blonde gangster’s moll who gets a little culture and a wake-up call from an egghead journalist (William Holden) hired to make her more “couth.” Adapted from Garson Kanin’s hit Broadway play and “enlivened by a sharp, witty script, and by Cukor's effortless handling of the brilliant performances… Magic” (Geoff Andrew, Time Out London).
