Review of My Man Godfrey (1936) by Kelly K — 17 Oct 2008
One of my all-time favorite films and always a pleasure to watch. I've probably seen it no less than 50 times and never get tired of it. William Powell is his usual wonderful self as the "forgotten man" turned butler, Godfrey and his pairing with his real life ex-wife, Carole Lombard, was truly one of my favorite screen pairings.
Other performances of note are: the underrated Gail Patrick as Cornelia (she was always a great b!tchy character), Alice Brady as the pixie seeing Angelica Bullock; bullfrog voiced patriarch, Eugene Pallette and underrated bit part of Jean Dixon as Molly the maid.
Oh, and don't forget Carlo!! ;).
