𝗔𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗺𝗼𝘃𝗶𝗲: Preston Sturges was at the height of his powers with this classic screwball comedy. Claudette Colbert flees from her proud and penniless husband, Joel McCrea, into the ridiculous arms of yachtsman billionaire Rudy Vallee. Hilarious, irresistible, and impeccably cast, PALM BEACH STORY has an abundance of rapid-fire dialogue, improbable set-ups, and hilarious supporting characters.
