Review of You Can't Take It with You (1938) by Jesse L — 21 Feb 2004
(VHS) (First Viewing, 4th Capra film).
Dreadful, just dreadful. A great demonstration on how painful comedies can be when they go horribly wrong, and how annoying Capra's films are when they get sentimental. It deals with the same themes as [b]Holiday[/b] (the pressure on the invidual to conform), but doesn't come anywhere near that masterpiece in grace, style or wit. I wouldn't have finished it if I hadn't spent money to rent it.
