Errol Flynn in rare comedy role, Dec 4 2009
By stickinsect - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Fours a Crowd (DVD)
Four's A Crowd is a fast paced romantic comedy in much the same vein as "His Girl Friday" and "Bringing Up Baby". Errol Flynn plays a public relations expert who takes on the job of improving the reputation of a cantankerous old millionaire. Olivia de Havilland and Rosalind Russell are rivals for Errol's affections, with competition from Patric Knowles. It's great to see Errol in a change of pace to his usual roles in swashbucklers and westerns. He handles this role with much enthusiasm, energy and charm. It's a pity his film career gave him little opportunity to further develop his comedic talent.The picture and sound quality on this DVD are a far cry from Warner's usual high standard. No restoration is evident with practically every frame showing scratches, stains, white flecks and other debris, and with occasional pops and drop outs occurring in the sound. For the most part the picture is sharp and shows good detail, but some scenes look decidedly off-focus. Blacks are solid, whites clean and there is good range in gray scale. The DVD contains a theatrical trailer for the film, there are no subtitles or scene selections, and the disc is region free. Entertainment value 6/10, picture quality 5/10, sound quality 7/10.

This is one of the most underrated comedies of the 30s. Errol Flynn on top of his form, gorgeous, charming and funny. His comic timing is perfect, he could be as a great as Cary Grant or Gary Cooper, if he would be given a chance to play more roles like this. Olivia de Havilland is great also. Solid supporting cast, cheek-to-tongue dialog, quick pace. Be warned, though, that DVD is bare bones: no extras, no captions, no scene selection even.

change of pace, May 17 2010
By Kate - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Fours a Crowd (DVD)
This movie has been long waiting for any Olivia and Errol fans. It is a shame these two did not do more comedy together. They are really fun to watch. The movie is typical 30's screwball comedy, so popular at that time. it is fast paced and witty humor though out. What i don't like is there are no extras of the making of it, and Warners did not take the time or care to restore this film as much as others like "The Adventures of Robin Hood". Still this is very much worth watching. Olivia and Errol out of their usual costume dramas, and into something contemporary for its time.I highly recommend it. Also look for the little terrier in the movie. It is the same dog who played Asta in all the old Thin Man Movies, Bringing up Baby and many more
