Cluny Brown
Tongues start wagging when a plumber's niece (Jennifer Jones) breaks from convention and teams up with an intellectual Czech refugee (Charles Boyer) in 1938 London. Ernst Lubitsch's ("Trouble in Paradise") swansong is satire at its most engaging, gently poking fun at the snobbery that existed within English society in the 1930s. "A lovely, easygoing comedy, full of small surprising touches." - Pauline Kael.
