william powell get knock on the head during an ocean cruise . it seem he have amnesia for the past nine year and be a penny pinching and thoroughly unlikable man marry to myrna loy . now that he become his real self ( which be strong and masculine ) he fall in love with loy . but she plan to divorce him . so he have to win her all over again . and deal with his past a a gangster . very funny movie . fast moving and well direct and act . but it all because of loy and powell . those two be absolutely incredible on screen they play off each other brilliantly and their quick and non stop dialogue and one liner be just fantastic . i prefer this one over the thin man series they do in the thin man they be always drink and it be play for laugh . this one doesn not have that . unfortunately it also doesn not have that adorable dog asta . still and this quick and lot of fun . an excellent hollywood comedy that ( strangely ) be almost forget today . well worth see .
