The Talk of the Town

I have now seen The Talk of the Town from 1942, and I am entirely charmed. I haven't seen a slashier movie in ages. It is a screwball comedy about a labor union agitator who is framed for a crime and has escaped from jail, a law professor, and a schoolteacher (the first two are men, the third is a woman). There is constant debate and banter about the purpose and nature of the law, and also they all fall in love. This last requires very little imagination on my part; it is basically text. Also I actually find Cary Grant fairly attractive in this movie, which is a first. Probably this is because he does not have a moustache.

I watched this movie because skygiants said I should, and I was richly rewarded. Also then I could read skygiants' happy threesome fic from this Yuletide!
