In watching Love Crazy I was amazed at how the film picked up in the second half. In the first half William Powell and Myrna Loy are the usual happy married couple, but through some typical movie situations, some of... Full review
Good, but not stellar, piece of screwball comedy from a legendary couple.

Powell and Loy were a hugely popular romantic comedy team, most notably in the "The Thin Man" series of films. They complimented each other nicely and established a rapport and a synchronization in their timing which served them very well... Full review

Frankly, I just recently discovered this team, besides seeing part of The Thin Man years ago (prior to my interest in classics). TCM played a run of their movies recently (Double Wedding, I Love You Again, Love Crazy).Of the many... Full review

"Love Crazy" is a rather uneven comedy starring that wonderful team of Myrna Loy and William Powell, along with Jack Carson and Florence Bates. The film starts out one way - a madly in love couple celebrating their fourth anniversary... Full review

This script really could have used some trimming, but Powell really comes through with some truly memorable moments. I'll never get over his drag scene-I don't recall seeing many drag scenes that were ever truly so well done. I crack... Full review

Although two of the "Thin Man" films, and "I Love You Again" usually have their fans as the best Powell-Loy romp, this one is in that select bunch. Powell never did another film with a drag scene in it -... Full review

One should never pass up the opportunity to catch either William Powell or Myrna Loy, especially when working together. I found this rarely seen screwball comedy to be of interest and containing a good quotient of comedic punch, but it... Full review

There are genuinely funny moments in this film; I didn't want to take my eyes off Powell and Loy for a second during the first half. The last act, however, really gets ridiculous with the psychiatrists' examination of Powell. It... Full review

Worth the price of admission is seeing William Powell pretending to be insane in order to postpone divorce proceedings--and then, to top that, disguise himself as a female relative in what has to be one of the funniest madcap screwball... Full review

This is another great comedy with William Powell and Myrna Loy. The elevator scene in this movie is just one of the hilarious scenes. I've watched this movie at least 20 times and every time I watch the elevator skit... Full review

The movie, though, was pretty damn good.
Here, the film keeps getting better as it goes, culminating in an extended sequence that (I believe) features the only occasion in Powell's entire career where he shaved his trademark moustache.

I'm trying to watch every Best Picture nominee ever. This was one of them, so I just saw it recently myself. Between this film, ARROWSMITH, and THE GREAT ZIEGFELD, I think I've fallen in love with Myrna Loy. ... Full Article
This riotous screwball comedy rarely relents once the stage is set. William Powell gets in to trouble with his wife, Myrna Loy, who then sues for divorce. To postpone the hearing and give him a chance to win her back, ... Full Article
