🎬 MovieFinder's Take
The film constructs a classic situational comedy, relying on the contrast between domestic comfort and the chaos of show business. It uses the monkey's escape as a perfect catalyst for a series of absurd situations and physical gags.
What lingers after the final reel is the charm of a simple, warm-hearted resolution to the marital farce. — MovieFinder Editorial
Director: Leo McCarey
Best Watched
With a cup of tea on a lazy afternoon, for a dose of silent-era whimsy.
