Review of No Time for Comedy (1940) by Bob V — 11 Jun 2010

This is a solid movie about a new playwright that makes a hit comedy. All the while he falls in love with the main star. Hits follow and a marriage. But he feels it is time to make a serious play. But will people accept it is the question.

Part comedy and part drama this was a solid film. James Stewart was great in his role. He helped make this a much better movie. His co star Rosalind Russell is also quite good in this. This was not one of James Stewart better films but it was still a solid watch.

It was funny to see so many people just smoking in almost every scene. The film is a bit dated but is still worth watching. For any fan of James Stewart should check this out for his performance.
