Born Yesterday (1950)

I first saw this romantic comedy at the Stanford Theatre in Palo Alto (one of my favorite places in the world) as a double feature with It Should Happen to You. I didn’t know anything whatsoever about either movie or about Judy Holliday, and it turned out that she's terrific. Directed by George Cukor and starring Holliday as an aggressively uneducated mob girlfriend who’s sharper than anyone gives her credit for.
