My Grading System

A+ = Masterpiece (I hold back on this one.) / A = Great. / A- = Really Good. / B+ = Good. / B = Decent (Serviceable). / B- = Flawed but okay (For those times there's something redeeming about the work). / C+ = Not very good (Skip it). C = Bad. / C- = Awful. / F = Complete Disaster (I hold back on this one too).

Note on Spoilers: I will try to avoid ruining a story by going into too much detail. But if I wish to include some revealing points to my analysis I will try to remember to add a separate spoiler paragraph.

The More the Merrier (1943)

This is one of those classic romantic comedies that leaves you smiling from ear to ear.  Jean Arthur is extraordinary in this film, don't ask me to explain why, she just is.  She's funny, sexy and relate-able and her chemistry with Joel McCrea is electric.  The story takes place during a housing storage in Washington DC and Jean Arthur allows for two male renters to stay in her spare room.  Comedy ensures and romantic sparks fly in a George Steven's film.  Grade: A
