Gregory La Cava's improvisational style received its highest critical acclaim for this 1936 film, a marginally Marxist exercise in class confusion during the Depression.

God, but this film is beautiful.

Chicago Sun-Times
Gregory La Cava's warm and giddy carousel, a raucous burlesque with a beautiful still center, a lighter and tarter savior fable than Capra's concurrent transmutations of the Gospels

There's a charm to both Powell and Lombard, making the film transcend generations. It's a cute movie that has fun with levels of wealth in society and sibling rivalry.

This scintillating comedy was the first film to be Oscar-nominated in all four acting categories.

It then turned out that My Man Godfrey was really about the class-struggle, not the best subject in the world for comedy. Best not to stay for the ending. It leaves you with the feeling that the whole thing was a waste of time.

Description by OLDIES.com:
My Man Godfrey -- Digitally Remastered. This classic and charming romantic comedy is one of the defining films of the "Screwball" genre. "My Man Godfrey" follows a scatterbrained socialite (the irrepressible Carole Lombard) who hires a vagrant (William Powell) as a family butler. But there's far more to Godfrey than meets the eye! Nominated for six Academy Awards including "Best Actor", "Best Actress" and "Best Director", "My Man Godfrey" is an unforgettable gem from the heyday of old Hollywood!
