Just Jaeckin’s The Last Romantic Lover (1978) may be his best film. A circus performer enters a contest to find the country's most romantic man. A strange, magical, entrancing, insanely romantic film with hints of screwball comedy.

“Blond Cheat” (1938) — early career Joan Fontaine attempts to be a screwball dame. I’m only partway through this, and she is only partway successful so far — but there’s probably a reason she isn’t known for these types of roles.

The breakneck pace of our first film, Billy Wilder's ONE, TWO, THREE (1961) inspired this week's second pick. Going back to almost two decades earlier, we watch the mother of all snappy-dialogue pictures, HIS GIRL FRIDAY (1940, Howard Hawks) #YabtM #movies #film #screwballcomedies #screwballcomedy #CaryGrant #RosalindRussell #reviews #YouTube #cinemastodon https://youtu.be/vI5wKT-LrXM

I’m finally getting caught up on “The Screwball Story” podcast by Olympia Kiriakou — including a fun episode on one of the my all-time favorites, “The Miracle of Morgan’s Creek” (1944)
