Shut up, woman!

I know it's supposed to be the lingo of the movie, but every time the female journalist opened her mouth I wanted to flykick her in the mouth.

She ruined this already bad movie from the beginning

A lot of career women in films of the 30s-40s talked like that like Katherine Hepburn. Try watching one of her films.

I liked the movie, however I did find her voice super annoying. I realize it might have been over-the-top camp intentionally, but still grated on my nerves.

I agree strongly with the OP. It ruined the movie.

She was trying way to hard to BE Katheryn Hepburn, and it simply came off as annoying.

I LOVE EVERY LINE…."Thats just the potatoes…here comes the gravy!" "…a sawbuck!…" "do you think I look…mannish?" " "…consider this my resignation….EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY!!!"….."or my name isn't Amy Archer and I didn't win the PULITZER PRIZE!!!………in 1957…"

Watch this movie again when your older and smarter and you'll be embarrassed at your post
