Product Description

Fortune-hunting playboys woo her. Newshounds clamor for the scoop on her romances. But society-page sensation Daisy Appleby, renowned as the heiress to a cosmetic company's millions, has a plan. Weary of facing a revolving door of flower-bearing fops, she arranges a marriage of convenience with likable, regular-guy reporter Johnny Jones. In exchange, Johnny will receive a weekly stipend so he can quit work and write his novel. That's the plan. Watch it all comically unravel as Bette Davis and George Brent star in a frothy screwball concoction that's one of 11 features they made together. Alfred E. Green directs; he guided Davis the year before in her Best Actress Oscar®-winning* Dangerous.

Product Description

How do you solve the mysterious case of which comedy to watch? Which one has the hippest humor? The hottest talents? The wildest one-liners? The answer's easy. Use a little Second Sight and it's case closed. Because Second Sight's squad of supernatural super sleuths can only mean super fun!

John Larroquette (four-time Emmy? Award-winning star of Night Court) and Bronson Pinchot (Beverly Hills Cop, Perfect Strangers) team up with otherworld forces to make sure lawbreakers don't have a ghost of a chance. They're the detectives - and sometimes defectives - who don't have a clue. Which means you'll have all the fun!
