PUNQ

Rated 26 Jan 2014

What's this?! A screwball comedy with laughs traded in for political tension?! This is an odd one, but yet it's got it's allure. Charles Boyer & Claudette Colbert are former Russian royalty, now being poor in Paris. While not really a funny movie, there is something about this situation that's intriguing. This story would have been much more suited for a suspense film. I wasn't won over completely it was unique for a glamor comedy like this to add so much politics into the mix!
