What is My Little Chickadee / She Done Him Wrong about?

MY LITTLE CHICKADEE, 1940, Universal, 83 min, Western/Comedy/Romance, USA. Dir. Edward F. Cline. In one of the most ingenious - and strange - pairings in comedy history, cranky misanthrope W.C. Fields meets his match in the sassy Mae West. Their Old West hijinks made this one of the most successful movies of its year (behind 1939 holdover GONE WITH THE WIND), and it remains a classic of sly double entendres. SHE DONE HIM WRONG, 1933, Universal, 66 min, Comedy/Musical, USA. Dir. Lowell Sherman. Mae West reprises her stage success as Diamond Lil in this suggestive and hilarious musical comedy, one of the last gasps of sexual freedom in movies before the Production Code set in. Look for a young Cary Grant in a supporting role!
