The conniving Harringtons, father and daughter, Harry and Jean, (Charles Coburn and Barbara Stanwyck) orchestrate a meeting on board a cruise ship with Charlie Pike (Henry Fonda), the wealthy, but naive, heir to a brewery fortune, in an attempt to cheat him at cards. Their plan is doomed to failure when Jean Harrington falls in love with her prey. But when Charlie is informed of her gold-digging ways, she must plot to re-conquer his heart. One of
Preston Sturges’ most clever and beloved romantic comedies,
The Lady Eve balances broad slapstick and sophisticated sexiness with perfect grace.
