It finds humor in the stratified 1930s society and the so-called easy livings of the affluent. But it also has it’s fair share of rip roaring slapst read more

Satirizing Consumerism: Easy Living
Cary Grant Won't Eat You Posted by Judy on Jul 19, 2015
I’ve never liked shows like Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous. I’m uninterested in what Paris Hilton spent on a dog palace, am only slightly amused by what Sony Bono paid to fly his hat. I’ve never understood the point. Am I to envy? To condemn? I’m as prone to consumerism as the next American read more

The Vintage Cameo Posted by Emily on Dec 10, 2013
Easy Living, part of a Preston Sturges double feature at New Beverly this past week, is a delightful screwball comedy from 1937. It’s full of misunderstandings and mistaken identities, and it’s a great example of escapist fantasy for Depression-era (or modern day) moviegoers. Unceremonio read more
