Every Day's a Holiday

About This Movie

Every Day's a Holiday (1937) is one of those quirky little comedies that somehow manages to blend farce with a hint of social commentary. The film's atmosphere is both lively and whimsical, thanks to its period setting and playful tone. I mean, a confidence trickster impersonating a French singer? That's a clever setup that allows for some delightful moments. The pacing feels just right, keeping you engaged with its twists and turns, while the performances add a certain charm—there's a lightness that doesn't take itself too seriously. It’s distinctive in the way it critiques authority through humor, and you can't help but appreciate the clever writing.

This film has seen limited availability over the years, making it a bit of a hidden gem for collectors. It's often found in budget collections or as a part of themed sets, but standalone releases are pretty scarce. The charm and uniqueness of its premise keep it on the radar for those interested in pre-war comedies, especially given the era's penchant for blending mirth with social issues.
