Viewing
"It Happened One Night" today, one reacts the same way
audiences did in 1934, guffawing loudly throughout and sighing
with contentment at the happy ending. The Depression-era movie is
funny and full of hope. And the justly famous hitchhiking scene,
in which Colbert proves to Gable that a shapely gam
is mightier than a
north-pointing thumb, is still a model of comic economy and
character development. Colbert's uptight heiress learns to loosen
up, and Gable's know-it-all newspaper man realizes that he can
still learn a few tricks.
