It's a Wonderful World (1939)


 

When a tycoon is accused of murder, the private eye tracking him finds himself roped in as an accessory and attempts to evade police, kidnapping a poetess along the way. 

Hilarious screwball comedy hasn't dated a bit, but it's no surprise having Stewart and Colbert team up to a Ben Hecht script.

Halliwell*: "Madcap comedy mystery which now seems much fresher and funnier than it did at the time. A highlight of the crazy comedy cycle."

Maltin***: "Very, very funny, with Stewart having a field day...We swear by our eyes!"
