Review of Lady for a Day (1933) by Kevin M. W — 30 Dec 2011
Damon Runyon's short story was the perfect vehicle for Frank Capra's intended assault on the Oscars of 1933, only Oscar didn't bite. No matter, the popular street personalities he created live on for us, thanks to Capra's affection for tough characters with soft hearts, his approximation of the American zeitgeist (which may or may not be true .
.. but we sure wished that it was). Special mention must be given to Ned Sparks who steals every scene he's in.
