Review of The Talk of the Town (1942) by Art S — 15 Jan 2015
Maybe because it can't be categorized definitely as a screwball comedy or a "serious" movie, it has been overlooked, but never will you see a movie that mixes comedy, romance, social commentary, and drama as well as this one.
.. Borscht With An Egg In It--'The Talk of the Town' is George Steven's only serious comedy. He fights alongside with Frank Capra's theme of the common man against big business and big government and he makes a home run.
The casting was superb from the three leads to all the supporting cast in the smallest of roles... Jean Arthur at her zenith!!
