This week, we tackle Preston Sturges’ The Lady Eve.  If romantic comedies would turn out like this today, they would be taken seriously as films.  This film is available in two editions that we can recommend.  First, there’s the obligatory Criterion edition that packed with extras.  Secondly, this is available as part of the Preston Sturges Filmmaker Collection.  There are no extras to be had, but you can get 7 films (including Sullivan’s Travels) for $47 shipped.  Actual notes will appear after the jump.
