Excellent comedy

Rating: 8/10 (13 January 2013)

This is among the oldest movies that I ever tried to watch. It is indeed a very classic stuff and I noticed that it is a very fast paced movie: I though that movies from 1930 would be very slow paced but this one is anything but that, it is full of very good jokes and fast paced delivery.
I also found interesting to note that many of the jokes used in this movie became so iconic that I instantly recognized their use in several other media. The mirror joke, for instance, is perhaps one of the greatest moments of this film and has so great an influence that every comedy series today, such as Family Guy, still uses the same joke. It was truly the work of genius to devise such a joke at the time.
