Video Entry - Three Comedy Classics

"Dying is easy-comedy, that's hard". No truer words were ever spoken, certainly as regards comedy. That's why I'm so excited about three new on DVD releases of three classic screwball entries from Hollywood's Golden Age: "Easy Living" (1937), written by soon-to-be director Preston Sturges and starring the irresistible, husky-voiced Jean Arthur; "Midnight"(1939), starring Claudette Colbert and Don Ameche, and written by soon-to-be director Billy Wilder (and partner Charles Brackett); and finally, "The Major and the Minor" (1942), starring the fabulous Ginger Rogers and Ray Milland. "Major" was actually Wilder's first shot behind the camera in Hollywood, and he never looked back from this first solid success.
