My Man Godfrey

In the depths of the Depression, a society scavenger hunt brings a naive socialite, played by the radiant Carole Lombard, to the city dump where she meets William Powell, an erudite homeless man, down on his luck. She hires him to become the butler for her eccentric family, and he learns that he is the latest in a long line of butlers who didn't last long due to the family's conflicting personalities and antics. A brilliantly executed comedy, full of both madcap humor and bitter satire, MY MAN GODFREY is one of the screwball gems of the 1930s.
