NOTHING SACRED(1937)
A newspaperman gets scammed by a dude pretending to
be a rich ruler and gets demoted! He finds out about
a girl with "radium poisoning" and talks his editor
into making this big news! A pretty good farce! B-
From a reviewer at IMDb.com:
Some of the recent comments are wholly unjust to
this movie. The point of the film is to make fun
of phony sentimentalism, sanctimonious posturing,
and the general tendency of the media to put profit
ahead of grace, dignity, and the simple truth.
Carole Lombard is not only beautiful, but an
exceedingly talented actress (in this and everything
else she did). The writing cuts to the bone,
exposing hypocrisy in all its forms. The film
is as fresh today, and is as relevant to the
culture, as it was when it was made. As for
the notion that a movie made in 1937 offends
someone's sense of what is politically correct
in 2004, and therefore deserves criticism,
give me a break. - beynac
