The Affairs of Susan (1945)
Joan Fontaine is very funny in one of her only comedies.
Joan Fontaine, before 1945, only made a few comedies, and they were B pictures. In this movie, she changes her personality with every new man she meets. She met four men, and she changed her personality four times. Each time she is a different type of woman: shy, movie star, social, and intellectual. She is very funny in each of the roles as she tries to readjust to the new life, and try to find the right man. She finally ends up with her first husband, but goes through a lot to find out he is the right one. Very funny, I recommend it.
The More the Merrier (1943)
One of the best movies ever!
I have always wanted to see The More the Merrier because I heard good things about it. I finally saw it, and I would recommend it to anyone. Not only is it a funny, funny film, it is also so sweet and tender. The scene on the porch between Jean Arthur and Joel McCrea is very romantic and funny at the same time. Charles Coburn, as the older room renter, is very, very good and gives a hilarious performance that won him an Academy Award. Jean Arthur, in a nominated performance, was as funny as usual, she also has many cool hairstyles. Joel McCrea is also excellent in his role. This was one of the best movies I have ever seen. I suggest that anyone who has wanted to see it, go do so.
The Thin Man (1934)
My favorite movie; it is hilarious!
The Thin Man was a landmark movie. It introduced modern marriage to the screen, showing that marriage could be a good thing, fun, and not begin at the end of the movie. Nick and Nora Charles were married at the beginning of the film. William Powell and Myrna Loy were fabulous in their roles as Nick and Nora, and reprised those roles for 5 sequels. Along with Asta, the couple solved murders, in between, of course some laughs and drinks. The movie was a little daring, but it is filled with so many jokes and funny situations. The first movie is the best out of all of them, and they get less funny and involve less drinking in every one. All of them are worth seeing, though, just for the partnership of William Powell and Myrna Loy. They were so good as husband and wife that many fans thought they actually were married in real life!
