One Sentence Plot Summary: A down-on-his-luck newspaper man helps a pampered society girl travel from Miami to New York and, go figure, they fall in love along the way.
Starring: Clark Gable, Claudette Colbert
Best of: Fantastic chemistry between Clark Gable and Claudette Colbert. Slow burning sexual tension (1934 style). Great dialogue. Great final scene.
Worst of: I could have used an earlier introduction for a reason to dislike the "other man."
Notable: One of only three movies (One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest and The Silence of the Lambs were the others) to win all "Big 5" Academy Awards.
