Was in the mood for comedy last night, so I watched "Love Crazy" (1941) with William Powell, Myrna Loy, Jack Carson, Gail Patrick, Florence Bates, Sidney Blackmer, Sig Rumann, Donald MacBride, and a host of former silent stars in very minor parts, such as May MacAvoy and Barbara Bedford. What a wacky, wacked out show! This is the first time in about ten years I've watched this. My old recording was worn out, but I got the new 5 film Powell/Loy set about a month ago and began with this one. Powell in drag, by the way, is about as pretty as a spider on a model's runway! Very funny film!! Jack Carson's sudden realizations are a hoot. William Powell is a superb comedian! This one was directed by Jack Conway. Highly recommended.
