the talk of the town

February 22 movie: The Talk of the Town. This was a delightful movie. Cary Grant plays an anarchist agitator falsely accused of arson & murder, who hides out with Jean Arthur and her unwitting tenant, a constitutional law scholar (Ronald Colman). Sounds grim, but that's only if it had starred Humphrey Bogart. This way it's a funny screwball comedy that was also thoughtful and dare I say it, intellectual.
