  • "The Butler DOES It"
    Yes, the butler, does it. William Powell, a hobo, is found as a "lost man" needed for a scavenger hunt. He winds up being the real butler when Irene, Carole Lombard brings him into the home of her eccentric, wealthy family of screwballs. "Godfrey" teaches the family quite a few lessons they badly need. There are hilarious moments in this film, provided by a cast of characters that are real characters. An early comedy whose entertainment value improves with age.

  • My Man godfrey
    The company was very responsive and gave me opportunity to report any problems also one of my favorite movies!!

  • sometimes classics can't be matched
    My Man Godfrey {1936} is a classic in every sense of the word. It is a wonderful picture of Have's and Have's Not during a period that was hard on even some of the Have's. It is a study of human nature and filled with characters so different from each other to give a fantastic picture of humanity. William Powell gives a performance that shows why he was a major box office draw. It is a movie not to be missed. If only to make you think about where you fit in the scheme of society.

  • Nice Movie, Bad Presentation
    Don't buy this one! Nice example of the 30's screwball comedy genre. But this particular DVD version (My Man Godfrey) is badly flawed by the insertion throughout the whole movie of a "bug" in the lower right of the picture. The bug is "RE" which evidently stands for "Reel Enterprises," the copyright owner for this version. Why would they deface such a good movie by inserting such a distraction? Surely not for the publicity; I'll never buy another product from Reel Enterprises.
