I love how old movies are made... they make it look like a fantasy world, you're aware that this is a movie and that the actors are truly acting grander than real life. Such classics.

[@andrewmstancombe1401]

I agree i love the old films its fantasy you know they are acting, they know they are acting. Modern films want you to believe its real!! Stupid Method Actors want you to think its all real. You see a tired man so the actor must be, if he's starving so must the method actor. I've not seen any Method actors volunteering for the Infantry whilst in a real firefight with a chance of being killed. They always act that bit. Famous remark by Sir Lawrence Olivier, when he found out Dustin Hoffman had stayed awake for three days so he could play his part in the film Marathon Man. Exasperated by his method acting, he said to Dustin, "My dear boy why don't you just try acting!" Perfect. Give me Actors who know they are acting a part any day in a film that's not pretending it's reality... because it never is.

[@ZeMiceS.22222]

Basically modern ( post 80s ) movies are terrible They lack the Story Characters Script Humour / drama Suspense And most of all they lack Actors ( m+f ) with talent and believable charm There's been a lack of decent movies for over 30 years all the talent has been traded in for special effects violence and filth And are littered with unnecessary expletives

[@birdlynn417]

I feel like these times we are all the lost kids orphaned from our family history....missing our elders of olden days and the past times. These days are so harsh and artificial, nothing compares with our older generations, the times, mannerisms, humor, kindness, and everything good. When people really cared about each other.

[@irmahernandez5220]

So TRUE. Those were the days of respect to our elders. The true mannerisms between men and women on screen is pure entertainment. Compared to the movies made today. Sex, violence, drugs sell. What a shame, because this is the world we are leaving to our generation.

[@carolreid5405]

birdlynn hubbard Absolutely agree. The saddest for me is these new generations have no idea how in so many ways they were much better. They have nothing better to measure what they have today in terms of what has been lost to them.

[@birdlynn417]

@@carolreid5405 I don't think we are honoring the past anymore or out history. Even the history from other countries...this is our humanity together. We use to be in awe over the mysteries, histories, and legacies even from other countries, the magnificence of it all, and respect for it all. But now everyone seems focused on the here and now too much and only that. Lost in our hurried and stressed out economy, lifestyle, and society to make ends meet. Meanwhile, we've got all these new toys (digital) to play with, as kids are focused on their iphones, ect, and we are losing our sense of wholeness as in something wholistic that we need to ground ourselves in. Like missing something from the natural earth and elements. People are getting wacked out, in a digitally whacked out world. Meanwhile, Trump offers nothing to unify our country or world.

One glaring exception to what you're saying: the racist stereotypes in this film are pretty hideous, especially the opening situation where, of course, a black man couldn't possibly be authentically great. The racism of those days was sickening. I guess the black actor was lucky to get any role at all, but it was such a disgrace that he had to reinforce negative ideas about his people just to make a living.

[@vinnievictory1186]

Written by the best dialogue writer from the golden age of talkies. He was the highest paid writer at the time and this gem was one of his finest. He also rewrote the Gone with the Wind script two years later singlehandedly aided by a battalion of secretaries in two weeks at a cost to MGM of $25,000, ten times the usual writer's salary at the time. It was one of the very first Technicolor experiments utilizing their new colour 3 strip 35mm film process. That's why the picture seems to have a subtle shimmer.

One of the greats. This movie still as Vibrant today as it was over 70 years ago. Lombard's new style of acting( a sort of Characture of her own persona) after a friends suggestion that she should act like she was in real life. Lombard became Hollywood's highest paid Actress but Fame never went to her head. She preferred to raise animals on her farm with the love of her life Clarke Gable, who absolutely adored his Carole. Fine script by Ben Hecht ( former Journalist) and breathtaking direction from William Wellman.

Quite enjoyed this. Came out well picture quality for a 83 year old film. made me laugh surprisingly a few times. Can see where Meg Ryan may in places have got her inspiration for her When Harry Met Sally weepy bed ridden scenes from, if she ever has seen this. Can even see a bit of a giggly Jessica Lange in King Kong stemming from Carole Lombard's performance and even prior to Lange Monroe & Goldie Horn as well. Nice and colourful great in Technicolor, a strange subject matter for a comedy, watched it for the almost HD quality, maybe these days if it was worked on again they could fine tune it a bit more with the incoming AI technology, just to get that extra bit of sharpness & detail, which I like to see, even though it was never absolutely captured on film in the day. This looks like the Kino Lorber 2011 version as opposed to their later 2018 version. Would imagine either of their Blu ray discs with 20 Gb would be better quality than a 480p 400Mb YT video, which is what I watched last night, sadly 'not' this particular YT version which may be even better than that YT version due to it being 720p and 520mb. 38 times the data has to make it look more detailed, though It looks nice & good enough on a big screen 4K TV even at 480p so I'd say it is well worth a viewing. Thing is though without that time & effort that some outfits put in reworking them to get that extra almost HD quality from these movies many people these days will never bother with these older films. Roku is full of unwatchable old movies, picture quality wise, (for a big screen 4K TV they are). People will be missing out on many things if they don't see such movies as Nothing Sacred.
