Stateside at the Paramount - 719 Congress Ave
Brand new restoration of what may be the best screwball comedy of all time. Carole Lombard is the Broadway star on the lam from ex-lover and theatrical impresario John Barrymore, who desperately needs her marquee appeal to save his new production. Directed with anarchic flair by Howard Hawks from a script by the masters of the form, Ben Hecht and Charles MacArthur. The chemistry between Barrymore and Lombard is really something special here. It's a film that will forever seem modern and subversive.
