Viewing: First
Decade: 1940's
Director: Rene Clair
Uh, look. I know this movie is well regarded, but it wasn't my cup of tea. It had some great ideas, some terrific effects for the era (and during WWII, no less). And, let's be honest, I'd watch Veronica Lake do her taxes.
But it never hit me as funny, somehow. Which seems like a good thing for a comedy to do. It felt like it should have starred William Powell, and the pacing should have been different. But the co-stars have no chemistry, and I think I turned it off 3 times before I finished it.
So. A good one for other people, but. Not so much me, which I was a bit sad about. I know people love this.
