🎬 MovieFinder's Take

You Can't Have Everything has mixed reviews with a rating of 5.7/10. Good for a relaxed evening without high expectations.

Not every film is made for everyone. Read the synopsis, watch the trailer — you'll know right away if it's for you.

A classic from 1937. They don't make them like this anymore — which is exactly why you should watch it. Best for: genre fans and those open to something unconventional.
