Reviews and Recommendations My Man Godfrey (1936) is a screwball romantic comedy starring William Powell and Carole Lombard. Irene (Lombard) gives Godfrey (Powell) a job “buttling” for the upper class during the depression. Its obvious how satirical it is by making fun of how much time the upper class socialites have and what they tend to do with it. It pokes fun at money and social problems of the upper class, and what makes it funny are the screwball antics and wonderful script. Lombard and Powell, divorced three years earlier, made the picture together. Nominated for six Oscars (NOT including Best Picture, shame shame). ****/****
