'My Man Godfrey'
This 1936 William Powell-Carole Lombard screwball comedy is the second movie in my "Down With Depression" series at the Ontario City Library, 215 E. C St. "Godfrey" plays Thursday at 6:30 p.m. in the community free. Admission is free.
You can read about the series in my column here. The first movie, "City Lights," drew a nice-sized crowd of old and young.

And here's the first 10 minutes via YouTube:

I've got to take my little rescue critter to the vet Thursday or else I would go see the screening. That is one of the understated classics of its time and ranks alongside "Bringing Up Baby" with Katharine Hepburn-Cary Grant and then all of the Thin Man series that William Powell and Myrna Loy went on to make. Oh man, Hooray for Hollywood!
