Starring William Powell and Carole Lombard, it's about 1.5 hours. Good family entertainment; hard to find nowadays.
Plot summary: "In the depths of the Depression, a party game brings dizzy socialite Irene Bullock to the city dump where she meets Godfrey, a derelict, and ends by hiring him as family butler. He finds the Bullocks to be the epitome of idle rich, and nutty as the proverbial fruitcake. Soon, the dramatizing Irene is in love with her 'protege'...who feels strongly that a romance between servant and employer is out of place, regardless of that servant's mysterious past..."—Rod Crawford <[email protected]>
My Man Godfrey (1936)
7.9 | Comedy, Drama, Romance
Side note: Irene Bullock's father, Alexander Bullock, played by Eugene Palette, sounds like Tech on the Chrysler Master Tech films.
