| Itâs her life â sheâll live it the way she wants! And since sheâs played by Joan Crawford at the peak of her MGM allure, sheâll live that life in a captivating array of fashions by Adrian. Crawford plays New York socialite Kay Bentley, whose yachting getaway in the Greek isles takes an unexpected turn when she meets a handsome archeologist (Brian Aherne). Sheâs carefree, heâs earnest. Sheâs of the moneyed elite, he disdains privilege and pretense. Theyâre opposites who, in the Golden Era of screwball comedy, are sure to attract, collide, fuss, banter and parry⦠but do they marry? How that does or doesnât happen in part of the fun in a fizzy romp, directed by W.S. Van Dyke, that features Frank Morgan as Kayâs flustered pop. In a genre that typically finds laughs in the character of a dutiful manservant, I Live My Live offers not one but two of the screenâs best: Eric Blore and Arthur Treacher. |
