Laughton is hilarious, man those eye movements always cracked me up. Sweet snappy dialogue, a heartfelt story that's never too cheesy. Just a damn great funny movie.

There are some good comedic moments and a well told story but the acting is hit and miss and the entire picture feels rather dated.

Damn good for its time, and still enjoyable to this very day. This is primarily due to its excellent acting, sharp dialogue, and solid pacing. The first hour is excellent, and while the last half hour is a bit unnecessary, it's decent enough. A genuinely good movie.

One of Charles Laughton's best. Ruggles, Young and Pitts are great in support.
