I'll Get You On the Ameche
Ball of Fire (1941)
directed by Howard Hawks
rating: 5 out of 5 cravats
on DVD from Netflix
Like Platinum Blonde or Mr. Smith Goes to Washington, Ball of Fire is the great American dream, scripted to the cadence of newspaper criers, lit by the light of an old New York, proof that movies are the great democratic art form because they're a love shared - by the cast, by the characters, by us through a far-away smile.
