Review of The Lady Eve (1941) by Audrey-Kim H — 12 Oct 2007
This is definitely one of the funniest movies ever! Barbara Stanwyck is brillant as the sexy con artist Jean Harrington who tries to seduce the superrich sucker, Charles Pike (Henry Fonda), but ends up falling for the sap! True, it's a bit predictable, but I was surprised that Henry Fonda could do comedy so well.
Even though "Ball of Fire" and "The Lady Eve" are considered on the same level, "Eve" is a perfect blend of humor and sex appeal with a great story and top-notch performances.
A real classic comedy!
