So, 'Just like a Woman' from 1939 – it’s this quirky little comedy that really embodies the era’s lighthearted spirit. You’ve got these private detectives, all working for a jeweler, chasing down a gang of thieves in the vibrant backdrop of Argentina. The pacing’s a bit uneven, but that just adds to its charm, you know? The performances feel genuine, with that vintage flair. What really stands out is the way they blend humor with a bit of intrigue, creating a unique atmosphere. It’s not something you see every day, and the practical effects, while modest, are delightful in their own right. A gem for sure, especially for those who appreciate the nuances of pre-war comedies.
Finding 'Just like a Woman' can be a bit of a treasure hunt; it’s not as widely circulated as some other films from the era. Most copies floating around are either on VHS or in lesser-quality DVD formats, which adds to the thrill of tracking it down. The scarcity of decent prints means that collectors tend to hold on to their copies tightly. Its charm and unique setting pique the interest of those who appreciate the lesser-known works of that time.
