Rating: 4/5 --
a highly satirical piece, poking fun at Hollywood itself and showing how out of touch it can be

A dubious proposition, but in Sturges's hands a charming one, filled out by his unparalleled sense of eccentric character.

The public will be delighted with the fine humor that is present throughout this symbolic film. [Full Review in Spanish]

Cine-Mundial
...Its endlessly fertile and still-influential fusion of satire, screwball comedy, drama and slapstick remains tartly fresh...

Sturges' dialog is trenchant, has drive, possesses crispness and gets the laughs where that is desired.

Product Description:
Frustrated film director Sullivan (Joel McCrea) is fed up with serving out easily digestible but ultimately meaningless chunks of comedy for the studios. He decides to set off across America to rediscover the daily lives of the Joe Lunchpails as research for his socially responsible next film, O BROTHER, WHERE ART THOU' Giving up all his unnecessaries, he begins his cross-country road trip in hobo's clothes with barely a dime in his pocket to regain his focus.
