Smart-talking newspaperman Robert Williams breaks the heart of reporter chum Loretta Young when he weds socialite Jean Harlow — a class-crossing that gets him tagged “Cinderella Man,” in Capra and screenwriter Robert Riskin’s DEEDS prototype.
Presented with support from the Robert Jolin Osborne Endowed Fund for American Classic Cinema of the 1930s, ’40s, and ’50s
Reviews
“Fast-moving, with some delightfully cynical wisecracks contributed by Capra’s regular writer Robert Riskin.”
