♥♥♥♥♥ |
A Movie of its era
|
Nothing Sacred falls into the madcap comedy genre. Carol Lombard is terrific as a woman who thought she was dying and then isn't. The story illustrates some timeless truths -- namely that lies take on a life of their own. The importance of the press dates the film -- the newspaper publisher is all-powerful, sort of a William Randolf Hearst character. The movie raises some moral questions that are relevant today -- when the dying girl isn't going to die, people are actually disappointed. One note that dates the film: The portrayal of African-Americans is stereotypic for the era and may even be considered offensive.
