"A real keeper"
One of the best movies ever made, IMHO. A little stagey in places, but that adds interest; it was originally written by Phillip Barry, who also wrote "The Philadelphia Story". Edward Everett Horton, Jeanne Dixon and Lew Ayres steal the show, from Cary Grant and Katharine Hepburn, no less! The scene in the playroom during the New Year's Eve party is wonderful (including "For the love of Pete, it's the witch and Dopey"). Haven't seen it on DVD, so can't comment on the transfer. I first saw this movie 40 years ago in a film class, and it seems better every time I watch it.
