Evening viewing recommendation? This wild tale of wacky wedlock from Preston Sturges takes off like a rocket and never lets up. A mix of the witty and the utterly absurd, THE PALM BEACH STORY (1942) is a high watermark of Preston Sturges’s brand of physical comedy and verbal repartee, featuring sparkling performances from Joel McCrea and Claudette Colbert. ❣️ Now playing on the Criterion Channel!
