"you be careful madam, or you'll turn my pretty head with your flattery"
"I've often wished I could turn your head... on a spit over a slow fire"
the chemistry these two always have

So funny, George/Larry trying to make people believe he wasn’t losing his memory is hilarious. I love it!
They’re so cute together. This is my first movie with Myrna and William, and I’m so excited to watch all the others

I’m being so serious when I say Myrna Loy and William Powell should have starred in more than 13 movies together.
