Biff Grimes is desperately in love with Virginia, but his best friend Hugo marries her and manipulates Biff into becoming involved in his somewhat nefarious businesses. Hugo appears to have stolen Biff's dreams, and Biff has to deal with the realisation that having what he wants and wanting what another has can be very different things.

It’s nice, but I just can’t like Biff. I don’t know, he didn’t even care about Amy, and when Virginia got married, he started being interested in her. And a grown old man who thinks that fighting for everything is nice is a big frustration for me. I just don’t get it. Amy deserves a better husband and a better friend

The Strawberry Blonde
8/10
Un'innovativa commedia romantica che si pone come obbiettivo quello di far ridere lo spettatore mostrando un piccolo frammento di quotidianità dell'America del 1890. E riesce a fare tutto ciò con successo.
Una commedia che pur non essendo recente resta attuale, trattando con grazia temi che affliggono la società attuale, come la parità di genere.
Il tutto è reso ancora più divertente da battute che riescono sempre a colpire nel segno, da un fantastico quartetto di attori protagonisti e da un'indimenticabile colonna sonora.
