A game, talented cast gets to stretch their comedic legs for middling, sub-par material in Michael Curtiz's Four's a Crowd, a true madcap screwball comedy that's more madcap than comedy.

Rosalind Russell's furiously committed reporter woman and Errol Flynn's public relations man steal the show, but too often the film doesn't trust its cast enough, as evidenced by a goofy, misguided recurring joke involving a pack of guard dogs. [C+]

Olivia de Havilland, as the starstruck heiress, is an adorable fury of gushing youthful lust as she fawns over the classy, self-possessed Basil Underwood (Howard). Film takes a turn towards the predictable in the final reels (and may take too long to get there), but it's overall effect is slightly more canny than daft. [B]
Nice concept :) To the point and short.
