IMDB rating: 7,5

Director: William A. Wellman
Main Cast: Carole Lombard, Fredric March, Charles Winninger, Walter Connolly

"Nothing Sacred is among the best screwball comedies of the 1930s, and one of the few to have been filmed in Technicolor (avoid those two-color reissue prints), allowing modern viewers to see what New York City looked liked back in 1937. Carole Lombard and Fredric March lead a strong, versatile cast, and William Wellman's crisp direction keeps the story brisk and peppy. Screenwriter Ben Hecht gives the story an unusually sardonic edge, with fine dialogue and interesting secondary plot twists. Overall, the film plays well for current-day audiences, and the New York location gives the film a distinctive visual texture. The musical score by Oscar Levant both mocks and celebrates the George Gershwinesque musical style then in vogue. Nothing Sacred was later adapted into a Broadway musical, Hazel Flagg, which in turn was filmed by Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis as Living It Up (1954), with Lewis in the Carole Lombard role." - http://www.allmovie.com/movie/nothing-sacred-v35733/
