THE BRIDE CAME C O D.
James Cagney & Bette Davis, and a bunch of other not very famous people that I can't be arsed to type in.
Dir: William Keighley, 1941, Warner Bros.

SYNOPSIS:
Good ol' bad Jimmy Cagney plays a pilot who kidnaps a stroppy posh bint and then crashes the plane on a desert island. They actually used to pay people to come up with these ideas!

"Jimmy, with whom I'd always wanted to work in something fine, spent most of his time in the picture removing cactus quills from my behind. This was supposedly hilarious. We romped about in the desert and I kept falling into cactus. We both reached bottom with this one."
- Bette Davis.

REVIEWS:
"Feeble comedy with a script unworthy of its stars. The mass of talent does however provide a smile or two towards the end."
- Leslie Halliwell.
"Both of them mug good-naturedly and it's pleasantly fast."
- The New Yorker.
