In Reply to: The Miracle of Morgan´s Greek. Sturges worst film? posted by patrickU on December 13, 2008 at 04:12:37:
The combo of Hutton and Bracken was comparable to scraping fingernails on a blackboard, but the film itself is well acted and produced. Betty Hutton's character (Miss Kockenlocker) was meant to stupify everyone who came into contact with her, and Eddie Bracken was the perfect fool. I wish Sturges had cast someone who was more loveable and comedically talented than Bracken. I think the weakest film Sturges directed was Mad Wednesday with Harold LLoyd (a talkie). He only directed 13 films, half of them superb. He set the bar very high for himself, so anything less than a classic could be considered a disappointment.
