Plot: Ellie Andrews has just tied the knot with society aviator King Westley when she is taken away to her father's yacht and out of King's clutches. Ellie jumps ship and eventually ends up on a bus to reach New-York to see her husband King Westley. Reluctantly she must accept the help of out-of- work reporter Peter Warne. Actually, Warne doesn't give her any choice. Either she sticks with him until he gets her back to her husband, or he'll blow the whistle on Ellie to her father. Either way, Peter gets what (he thinks!) he wants a really juicy newspaper story.
My Review:A great entertainer with great dialogues & acting that make you laugh.Aperfect weekend watch.The moment I saw the first scene I figured out that 1991 blockbuster Hindi Movie " Dil Hai Ki Manta Nahin" directed by Mahesh Bhatt,starring Aamir Khan & Puja Bhatt is the exact copy of this 1934 classic,from first scene to last scene(except that the hindi version had songs).This makes us believe that the real talented people were there only in those days with original ideas.Clark Gable in totally opposite kind of character as compared to his "Gone with the Wind' character.
My Ratings:5/5 Go...Treat yourself & family
