Carole Lombard is hysterical in My Man Godfrey, as the rich brat who hires riches-to-rags William Powell to be the family butler in this depression-era comedy. The famously eccentric Gregory La Cava directs this screwball classic that garnered oscar nods for all four acting categories. It would make a great double feature with Make way For Tomorrow, but do yourself a favor and watch Godfrey second… you may need a little cheering up.
