My how times have changed.No longer do leading men in award-winning, high-grossing films make $60,000.
No longer are comedies described as being "screwball."
No longer does the romantic comedies considered good.
I think the bigger change from 1942 (doesn't this film seem silly compared to, you know, shooting Nazis?) is that Palm Beach isn't nearly the destination it was back then.
On I Love Lucy, Palm Beach was the premier destination for getting a tan, enjoying the sun and being a major part of the California glitterati.
Does anyone go to Palm Beach anymore? Is Rock Hudson still lounging by the pool? Hell, Brad Pitt lives in New Orleans the opposite of Palm Beach.
