The Lady Eve: Review

Of all the masterpieces Preston Sturges wrote and directed, many claim this sparkling comedy is his very best. They may be right. Wonderfully acted by Barbara Stanwyck and Henry Fonda, it's a classic battle of the sexes. She's part of a team of professional card sharks; he's a shy millionaire's son and an easy target. The hustle, which unfolds during an Atlantic crossing, goes according to plan until they hit a snag: The lady Eve falls in love.
