My Man Godfrey (1936) 3of9

In the depths of the Depression, a party game brings dizzy socialite Irene Bullock to the city dump where she meets Godfrey, a derelict, and ends by hiring him as family butler. He finds the Bullocks to be the epitome of idle rich, and nutty as the proverbial fruitcake. Soon, the dramatizing Irene is in love with her 'protege'...who feels strongly that a romance between servant and employer is out of place, regardless of that servant's mysterious past...

I know shes the villain, but Gail Patrick is damn sexy on the couch!

I want to be Irene to someone's Godfrey

@havilland18 True! Indeed! She has such a sweet look! That helps. That's why she has been cast as Lois Lane although she's 9 years older than Clark Kent. Hey, I said Clark twice and both are different person. Have a nice summer ;-)

@ConfusedSponge hmmm I like Meryl Streep... although I like Natalie Portman I would go more with Amy Adams...the beautiful about Amy Adams is that she can appear much younger than what she actually is

@ggggroucho Today's Mexican maids wouldn't know but this MAID character in this film is something else, you know! LoL ;-)

[ConfusedSponge]

@ggggroucho Agreed but Godfrey must be a lil' older you know. Don't expect too see Zac Efron to play him, okay! Just the thought of it makes me cringe! Ooooh!

@windstorm1000 Yay, about the Colin Firth thing. I'm sorry but although Sandra is an okay actress, she's kinda overrated and already in her MILFy years. Kate is a brilliant actress but Irene is a brat and ditzy in a way. Kate is too mature and there's nothing innocent about her.

@richard654w Yay, me too.

[ConfusedSponge]

@vivaloriflamme WHATTTTTTT???????

[ConfusedSponge]

@ConfusedSponge Please don't kill me, you guys!

@havilland18 Actually, I've thought of Amy Adams before but you know because of the age thing and all and also at that time I thought Blake was perfect for it. How in the world I had choosen her, I honestly have no idea. I'm gonna get killed but I just have to ask this, do you like Carol? I mean as an actress. She's okay but a lil' overrated. Thanks to her premature death and the everly constipated Clark Gable. Oliva is one of my favoritre actress and glad you agree on that too ;-)
