Dir: Peter Bogdanovich, 1973, bw (8*)

Classic 30’s style screwball comedy, filmed in black and white by Bogdanovich. The casting coup was nine-yr old Tatum O’Neal as father Ryan O’Neal’s newly-orpaned "maybe" daughter, who go off on a con artist spree across Missouri, and she ended up being the youngest winner ever of a competetive Oscar, getting the Supporting Actress award, even though she was definitely a lead actress. Madeleine Kahn was also nominated for a true supporting role, as a "would be" matchup for dad, whose scene stealing "maid" was unknown actress P.J. Johnson. A fun story, told in classic style. "They don’t make em like this any more."
