The Lady Eve (1941) is one of the smartest screwball comedies ever made — and it's been criminally underseen for decades. This week Riley and Mark review Preston Sturges' razor-sharp classic starring Barbara Stanwyck as a con artist who falls for the wrong man, gets burned, and comes back as an entirely different person for revenge. They dig into Stanwyck's total command of every scene, whether Henry Fonda's bumbling millionaire actually deserves the film's sympathy, what the film is really saying about who holds the power in relationships, and why Preston Sturges deserves to be mentioned alongside the greatest Hollywood directors of the era. Mark brings his theater lens to one of classic Hollywood's most technically gifted actresses, and Riley makes the case that the film lets its male lead off far too easy.
