Review of You Can't Take It with You (1938) by Josh L — 10 Mar 2004
Well the movie had a promising story but, it did really remind me of It's A Wonderful Life. Which I thought IAWL was a better film. They both kind of have the same care free attitude that Capra likes to incorporate into his movie's.
It's just I don't really know how believeable the story really is. It's also suppose to be a comedy but like most old movie's in's just not funny! The reason I did say it was ripe was because of the performances.
I thought Lionel Barrymoore was very good in it. Also some of the minor chararacters were very quirky and fun and really helped keep the story going.
