About This Movie

They Just Had to Get Married is a 1933 comedy-romance film from Universal Pictures. The story follows a maid and a butler who inherit a fortune and face various challenges in their new life among the wealthy.

This film features a cast that includes Slim Summerville, Zasu Pitts, Roland Young, and Verree Teasdale. It explores themes of wealth and social class, focusing on the humorous situations that arise as Molly Hull, a maid, and Sam Sutton, a butler, navigate their unexpected fortune.

As they attempt to join the ranks of the idle rich, they encounter numerous comedic obstacles. The film combines elements of romance and comedy, typical of the early 1930s, appealing to collectors who appreciate classic cinema from this era. Its unique premise of class struggle and comedic misunderstandings adds to its charm for those interested in the genre.

This film has a somewhat elusive presence in the collector's market, with few copies floating around. It was released during a time when many pre-code films were being lost or forgotten, adding to its scarcity. Enthusiasts of early sound comedies often seek it out for its unique charm and the chance to glimpse the social satire of the early 1930s. Its format history can be tricky, as it’s not as widely available in restored versions, which makes finding a good print particularly rewarding.
