planktonrules comments must've been written on Topsy-Turvy Day, because everything stated by that simple life form is the opposite of real truth!
'Bluebeard's Eighth Wife' is hilarious in every scene, in every way -- the chemistry between Colbert and Cooper could not have been finer...supporting cast is superb.
Writing and direction are magnificent!!!
Like so many other comments on this board again I lament, "Why can't films be like this anymore?"
This is classic Paramount 1930's screwball comedy at its best, folks!
