Review of You Can't Take It with You (1938) by Cecilia C — 13 Mar 2009
When a wealthy and ultra-conservative banker?s son (James Stewart) falls for his secretary (Jean Arthur)?a stable girl from a flighty yet fun family?comedy ensues. Lionel Barrymore steals the show as Arthur?s happy-go-lucky grandfather.
Based on the Pulitzer-Prize-winning play, this film won Oscars for Best Picture and Best Director (Frank Capra). Not Capra?s best work but a fun film to watch for good, entertaining amusement.
