Jack S @RT58840043 05/30/2024 Stanwick and Fonda were a great team and they’re both attractive and amusing in this one. But unfortunately there’s nothing exceptional here. Although mildly enjoyable, “The Lady Eve” it’s not! See more Steve D @RT35616104 05/18/2023 Not really memorable but fun thanks to the cast. See more 08/03/2020 Witty banter, glamorous stars, and a nod toward film noir. A fun classic that doesn't disappoint. See more Robbie K @RT50853010 08/02/2019 What a delightful murder mystery comedy, Barbara Stanwyck is amazing as always, she and Henry Fonda make a great teaming. Very entertaining, great pace and well produced. Snappy well written screenplay. See more 04/10/2019 Both leads shine and develop some chemistry as this film deliberately lurches here and there to wring as much wry comedy out of the situation as it can. The police are always inept in these detective films and books, as they pretty much are today. Can you imagine living in a time without DNA analysis when the cops pinned anything they wanted on whoever they wanted just to alleviate public pressure? Here it is played for laughs. A good early detective-movie genre. The acting is superb. Again, my eyes hurt after watching so many black and white films. The colorization technology must be better than it was thirty years ago. Color would vastly improve this film. See more Ed M @RT80499164 12/31/2018 Light weight comedy. Dated. See more Read all reviews
