The recurring theme of footsteps is brilliant here.

I can’t think of anything more unappealing than attending a work sponsored skating party.

I simply love that line:

You’re a fool, for which I’m grateful.

Harlow crammed 4 more movies in after this one in 1936 & her death in mid-1937.
Amazing!

Jeans best scene is coming up on the boat with Loy.
She delivers it so beautifully.

Clark’s “smoky eye” in this movie is very fetching!

Looking at Harlow in these scenes, I could see her playing Jean Arthur roles, Lucille Ball roles… the list goes on.

Adrian’s idea of a working girl’s wardrobe never lined up with the scmattas I wore as a secretary.

1930s fashions came around again in the early 1970s & I swear I had a suit just like the one Harlow is wearing.

When great movies were about adults portrayed by wonderful actors wearing beautiful clothes.
It’s like opening a present every-time I watch it!

I love that she gets to “have” Clark Gable & also gets to sleep in peace after she got him.

The head butler is played by Gilbert Amory, who just years before was a leading man of early talkie & silent films.

I love Wife Vs Secretary.

Harlow is so damn good!
Subtle, sweet & knowing!

She had become such a deft & touching actress, that it hurts to think of what might have been.

I’m afraid I see myself in Loy’s portrayal. I tend to pull away & feign a disinterested resting bitchface when I’m really seething inside because I think my man is a dope.

At this point in her career, Harlow had transitioned from a platinum blonde to what MGM called “a brownette”.
I never knew what that really meant. 🤷‍♀️

Reminds me of the old days when we’d pay $.75 for a double feature at the old Granada movie theater in the Rogers Park section of Chicago.
You could stay all day. Real butter on real popcorn & we’d run up to the mezzanine as Dad snored in seats downstairs.
