It's my dream cast...hollywood greats: Spring Byington, Ron Colman, a 30 year old Jack Carson, and i guess Ginger Rogers. LOVE the first three. Ginger Rogers played such a hard-to-get, mean, nasty wench opposite Fred Astaire, and really seemed to enjoy it... anyway. Here, David, Jean, and Freddie have the sweepstakes ticket, and win or lose, have to deal with the results. and it gets complicated. fun story. a love triangle caper! the running gag here is that everything takes place in the italian restaurant, while the owners, Nick and Nick just watch. Directed by Lew Milestone (real name Leib Milstein) started in the silents with Howard Hughes, and followed into the talkies. some funny stories, if you read his bio on imdb and on wikipedia.org. although he did have trouble with the House Un-American Activities Committee. he DID win two oscars as best director! Jack Carson died quite young (cancer). he never won an oscar, but he should have, at least for lifetime achievement in comedy. Carson was so great in Mildred Pierce and in Love Crazy. it's fun. HIGHLY recommend this one. filmed during the height of the film production code, so they could only say so much. Great stuff!
