“Reporter Clark Gable chases spoiled heiress Claudette Colbert across most of the eastern seaboard, pausing long enough between wisecracks to set the definitive tone of 30s screwball comedy. Even though Frank Capra’s 1934 film won all five of the top Oscars, it’s still pretty good. This is Capra at his best, very funny and very light, with a minimum of populist posturing.” – Dave Kehr, Chicago Reader
