"Theodora Goes Wild" (1936)


In this charming screwball rom-com lovely Irene Dunne is the secret authoress of a torrid novel that's burning up the country's bestseller list and no one in her provincial New England town suspects her quiet Miss Prim self is the scandalmonger. Easygoing, dashing Melvyn Douglas is the book's cover illustrator who wants to melt her reserve (and her heart) and the clucking town biddies are led by chief bluenose Spring Byington. An entertaining  romp.
