This scintillating comedy was the first film to be Oscar-nominated in all four acting categories.

Creative Loafing
Gregory La Cava's warm and giddy carousel, a raucous burlesque with a beautiful still center, a lighter and tarter savior fable than Capra's concurrent transmutations of the Gospels

CinePassion
The film has lost some of its allure over the years, but it's still streets and streets ahead of the addled whimsy favoured by latter-day Hollywood.

Time Out
William Powell and Carole Lombard are pleasantly teamed in this splendidly produced comedy.

There's a charm to both Powell and Lombard, making the film transcend generations. It's a cute movie that has fun with levels of wealth in society and sibling rivalry.

Gregory La Cava's improvisational style received its highest critical acclaim for this 1936 film, a marginally Marxist exercise in class confusion during the Depression.

Description by OLDIES.com:
A bowery bum (William Powell) crosses paths with a young heiress and ends up in the unlikely job of butler for her wealthy family in this screwball comedy from the Great Depression era. But when the daughter ends up falling in love with him, it's revealed there's more to Godfrey than meets the eye! This delightful film was a runaway smash hit upon release and went on to garner six Oscar nominations, including Best Actor, Actress, Director and Screenplay. A 1957 remake starred June Allyson and David Niven.
