'That's very nicely put... Comparing my intellect with a cigarette lighter that doesn't work. That's a very interesting mixture of poetry and meanness.'
I spent the wee hours of the morning watching this and drawing Jimmy, but I never got around finishing the film (thanks, mum! :P). I did, however, find
this beautiful radio adaptation of the film from the
Screen Guild Theater starring none other than Jimmy and Margaret Sullavan and I had to swoon a bit. Man, he's no Clark Gable or Cary Grant, but if anything could make me go on my tippy-toes and get my heart melting it's gotta be Jimmy's voice. (There's something about that Southern drawl that reduces me into a puddle.)
