Tracy Lord's being 'tamed' is sort of a neat prophecy of Hepburn's late career -- say after 1967 -- when she kept doing the kate thing mostly in disposable movies, w/out true bite.

could watch Alice Brady + Eugene Pallette in a sitcom.
this is on cable all the time so I feel like I've seen it (well, parts of it) an awful lot. the pacing of it is really great, the only false note is really the sappy bit at the end when he crashes through the billboard on his bike, it's just unnecessary. otherwise the ensemble cast makes it, all of the supporting characters add depth to it.
― Οὖτις, Tuesday, 2 September 2014 16:21 (nine years ago) link
it got 8 votes where the movies before and after got 6, so it's more of a general thumbs up than a BEST MOVIE EVER thing
― da croupier, Tuesday, 2 September 2014 16:23 (nine years ago) link
yeah the action chase sequence at the end of 40yo is really pro forma but great ensemble, and i appreciate how they get at the pathos of carell's haplessness without suggesting he's an unspoiled dreamboat or something.
