Movie #919 "Love Crazy" pairs William Powell and Myrna Loy AGAIN, in something other than the thin man series, and it is screwball comedy from the get go. How enjoyable! And I came into this about 30 minutes late, so I missed the set up, but it was easy to follow, and watching these two actually arguing, for real, was lots of fun because that's something they don't seem to do much in the thin man series. It's silly ---- almost too silly at times, but not enough to cross the stupid line --- just enough to carry the plot until the end. Lots of fun, is all I can say............and it's so much fun to see these two at their best ---- antagonizing each other! This is a classic, and I recommend it!

Steve and Susan Ireland (William Powell and Myrna Loy) host Susan's mother (Florence Bates), who's recuperating from a sprained ankle. When a misunderstanding prompts her to goad Susan into divorce, Steve plays at being mentally ill as a defense. But Susan calls his bluff and has him committed. Gail Patrick, Sig Ruman and Jack Carson co-star in director Jack Conway's sidesplitting screwball comedy.
