This film (and play) has so many screamingly funny lines that, even as you're taking one in, ten more are piling up behind it. A sensational cast, and a really unusual story, make this a one-of-a-kind viewing experience.

Kind of fascinating how the trailer paints this film as a romantic triangle between Davis, Sheridan and Travis. Yes, it's a plot point, but it's not the main plot of the film. (Brilliant film!)

I'm so happy I get to play Lorraine Sheldon for my play!

I personally kinda like the musical from 1967, the title song is DELICIOUS!!!

I remember reading that the characters in this play were inspired by real people-Monty Wolsey's -Alexander Woollcott,Ann Sheridan's Gertrude Lawrence and Banjo's Harpo Marx.

I've seen this movie since I was a little kid; what a deceiving trailer!

The studio kind of created a whole new movie in the trailer, emphasizing the elements of Bette Davis and Ann Sheridan at the expense of the major character and his story, because Monty Woolley was a complete unknown to moviegoers at that point, and no one would come to the movie if they pushed him in the trailer.

My God! Bette Davis was gorgeous.!

Arguably better is the full-length version of the Nathan Lane revival of the play on Broadway in 2000. It’s definitely funnier than the movie. kzread.info/dash/bejne/Z3yGy6yzZq_Nkaw.html

although i love old movies & bette davis is my favorite golden age of hollywood star, & i usually like montys roles...i didnt enjoy this movie. monty played a rotten character who treated everyone badly. he was selfish & a sneak. bette's part seemed watered down & uninteresting. my favorite monty movie="since you went away" w/claudette colbert & its a wonderful xmas movie. favorite bette movie, if i have to choose...."all about eve" "now voyager" "the little foxes"...i couldnt do just one.

Pity that Ann Sheridan is so out-acted by the rest of the cast!

Totally disagree.... I think she more than held her own in scenes with Bette Davis.
