      Ed Bracken

      I like Ed Bracken's performance here. His voice and appearance are very similar to the three-time Oscar winner Walter Brennan, but Walter is always slow, and Ed's performance here is absolutely insane, this drama is Sturges's most screwball one.

      I like the performance when Ed starts to stutter, he said that the focus is hocus and I laughed stupidly. He is like Chen Peisi in the peak age, but he is much more cordial than Chen Peisi.

      The dialogue of this play is written by...

      The Virgin Mary in war years

      When watching this movie, I laughed almost every one or two minutes. Noval’s stuttering. Really, the performance of the characters in the play, the rhythm and the connection of the sound and the picture, the sturges control is really good, if you say every Each film language and performance system has its own masters. Sturges is definitely a master of Hollywood's classic film language, including the excellent traditions inherited from the golden age of silent comedy.

      Of course,...

      What a post-war comedy. Stupid and exaggerated, all sorts of falls from beginning to end. Sturges's script breaks almost every moral stereotype that anyone can think of. After all, Christmas will heal everything, and it also allows the audience to see in a mess that they have neglected for a long time but are truly...

    Movie quotes

    • Constable Kockenlocker: [to his 14-year-old daughter, gruffly but jokingly] Listen, Zipper-puss! Some day they're just gonna find your hair ribbon and an axe someplace. Nothing else! The Mystery of Morgan's Creek!

    • Mr. Johnson: The responsibility for recording a marriage has always been up to woman. If it wasn't for her, marriage would have disappeared long since. No man is going to jeopardize his present or poison his future with a lot of little brats hollering around the house unless he's forced to. It's up to the woman to knock him down, hogtie him, and drag him in front of two witnesses immediately if not sooner. Anytime after that is too late.

    • Mr. Johnson: I don't deal with spooks. She doesn't need a lawyer, she needs a Medium.
