Nothing Sacred (1937)
It’s hard to determine whether Nothing Sacred is a comedy or a drama, but if you decide to watch it all the way through, you’ll find out it’s a very strange comedy. Carole Lombard thinks she’s dying, and when she finds out she’s going to live at the exact moment reporter Fredric March appears to interview her, she decides to hide the truth to get attention and sympathy. So, since the main storyline involves someone pretending she’s dying, it’s a little bit odd.
If you like Carole Lombard in her classic screwball comedies, and you don’t think there’s anything wrong with joking about death, you might find this movie funnier than I did. I like Carole much better in dramas, and the same goes for Freddie. Plus, it’s a staple for screwball comedies to be extremely over-the-top and have one ridiculous antic after another, and in general, I prefer my movies to be a little more believable. But this is the only film in which you’ll get to see Carole in Technicolor, and she herself really liked it, so if you’re a fan, you can give it a whirl and see if you like it. You’ll also see Walter Connolly, Hattie McDaniel, Charles Winninger, Sig Ruman, Margaret Hamilton, and Monty Woolley in the supporting cast.
