Hilarious! It deserved all the Oscars it got. Exceptional chemistry between Gable and Colbert. They play a down-on-his-luck reporter and a spoiled heiress. Frank Capra's picture became the first screwball comedy.

Coming from poverty row studio, Columbia, both of the stars thought they were making a terrible movie. Now, it is recognized as possessing iconic dialogue and scenes that bring images of Loony Tunes to mind.

Specifically, this film inspired Bugs Bunny's personality.
