Recently remade as You've Got Mail this classic tale tells of two co-workers in the same Budapest notions shop, who are secretly lonely penpals. Neither knows the true identity of the other and this can only lead to comic disaster and misfortune for both. Inevitably problems arise with the letters and the relationships between the two, much to the delight of the audience.

This is a classic film and a highly enjoyable one at that. Marvelously scripted by Samson Raphaelson from the play 'Parfumerie', this film is bursting at the seams with charm and you often wish you could run into the movie and hug many of the characters. I believe that this film would have helped coin the phrase 'feel good movie'. This is a wonderful film, which has lost nothing with age and gained much more charm.

An awesome comedy made in 1934 by the renowned director Frank Capra. The story is about a rich man's daughter who rebels at her father's attempt to stop her marrying an aviator. She does this by running away and is helped by a newspaper reporter who has just been fired. They end up traveling together and aong the way hilarious complications arise.

Claudette Colbert and Clark Gable have the starring roles and what a team they make. It is a testament to the actors, the director and the scriptwriter that this was the first film ever, to win the five major Oscars. If you have any spare time then this film is definitely worth watching.
