Nothing Sacred - 1937

"Nothing Sacred sets a strong pace at the beginning, holding it steadily for most of the way, and then strikes a climax with the fight scene between Miss Lombard and Fredric March. That's the topper and one of the best laugh scenes ever put on screen."

Variety, December 1, 1937

TV Guide plot synopsis

IMDb Site

Three stars from Halliwells Film & Video Guide

"Hollywood's most bitter and hilarious satire, with crazy comedy elements and superb wisecracks; a historical monument of screen comedy, though its freshness at the time can't now be recaptured."


True Confession - 1937

"But above them all is Miss Lombard, a tower of comic strength, and the pivotal point around which the picture spins."

Frank Nugent, The NY Times, December 16, 1937

TV Guide plot synopsis

Two Stars from Halliwell's Film & Video Guide

"Archetypal crazy comedy with fine moments despite longuers and a lack of cinematic inventiveness."
