Easy Living

1937 · 88 min

A breezy, daffy screwball romp full of mistaken identity and luxury chaos, light as a feather and endlessly charming.

Tagline: It's dizzy - it's daffy, It's cockeyed - it's laughy!
Overview: J.B. Ball, a rich financier, gets fed up with his free-spending family. He takes his wife's just-bought (very expensive) sable coat and throws it out the window, it lands on poor hard-working girl Mary Smith. But it isn't so easy to just give away something so valuable, as he soon learns.
How it feels: Light, whimsical, satirical and romantic. Brisk and easy to follow.
About: Class, love, identity, family
Content: Mild violence. No gore, sexual content or swearing.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
