Something for the Birds (1952)
In a rare comedic turn for both Victor Mature and Patricia Neal, they pair up in a cute political satire, Something for the Birds. Patricia is a liberal activist intent on saving a rare bird on the verge of extinction, and Victor is a slick lobbyist who thinks business and progress are more important than endangered species. Of course, it’s hate at first sight, but since it’s a comedy, you can bet things will change.
In her trip to Washington, Patricia meets Edmund Gwenn, an adorable and professional party crasher. He owns a company that engraves invitations, and whenever he’s hired for a Washington hobnobbing gala, he engraves one extra invite for himself! He’s jolly and fun, and he certainly lightens the environment of sleazy politicians and contradictory bills to pass. Once Victor relaxes and – no pun intended – joins the party, he’s also quite a bit of fun. Patricia is very cute in this light role; she usually gets put in such heavy movies, so this is a nice change of pace for her. If you like cute romances with a political backdrop, definitely check it out!
