The other night: Design For Living (1933) Noel Coward, Ben Hecht and Ernst Lubitsch poured into one big shaker and decanted as a scintillating cocktail that should have brought on screen censorship that very moment. Gary Cooper has youthful charm, Frederick March is a genuine actor, and Miriam Hopkins is a lambent flame. Bright, witty, charming, sexy. World's sexiest wedding gown. I didn't mind that Franklin Pangborn only had two lines once I saw Hopkins in her final skin-tight glittering gown which surpasses mere lingerie for its spectacular toothsomeness. Edward Everett Horton provides comedy input throughout. A big big 10/10!
