It Happened One Night (1934) - 3/5
This is a pretty straightforward romantic comedy of the era. Clark Gable is clearly having the most fun out of anyone in making this movie, which lends a refreshing kinetic presence as the plot plods along. It’s a charming diversion, which is all it really needs to be.
Closest comparison: It’s like The Philadelphia Story by way of You Can’t Take It With You (1938).
Setting: Adventure
Plot: Romantic Comedy
Tone: Comedy
