Review of The Lady Eve (1941) by Rami R — 31 Dec 2006
Behold the razor sharp wit and unflappable technique of Preston Sturges. While many favor Sullivan's Travels for sheer structural strength (and a touch less sapiness) nothing beats Eve. Stanwyck has never matched herself (at least comedically) here and it makes you wonder why Fonda didn't do more comedies.
Plus its always great to see Sturges stock players; William Demarest, Eric Blore, Eugene Pallette and the crooked but never common Charles Coburn.
