" Director: George Stevens His 16th Movie My 8th movie watched from the director This George Stevens' comedy is a prime example of 1940s dialogue and performances. The three stars are constantly entertaining and the comedic twists and turns throughout don't feel stale and it was a just a great classic comedy to watch on this rainy day.
