Christmas in Connecticut – Holiday Classic or Feminist Screwball?

For classic film fans, the holiday season represents a time to wax nostalgic over those classic films that pop up this time of year. Everyone has his or her own must-see favorites. Perhaps you prefer a mainstream flavor like WHITE CHRISTMAS or IT’S A WONDERFUL LIFE, or perhaps you go for something a bit under the mainstream radar like HOLIDAY AFFAIR or IT HAPPENED ON FIFTH AVENUE.

Obikin His Girl Friday. Is this anything?

(Obi-Wan as the intrepid reporter on his last day at work before getting married and moving upstate, insisting he won't miss the job at all and is actually looking forward to being a stay-at-home husband for a while, thank you very much. Anakin as both his editor/boss and ex-husband, throwing one last juicy story his way, ostensibly as a 'one last hurrah' present but not-so-secretly mostly to try to convince Obi-Wan to stay and get back together. There's a murder suspect, Anakin gets Obi-Wan's fiance 'accidentally' arrested, they uncover a sinister plot involving crooked cops and politicians...and obviously Obi-Wan and Anakin get back together. Obviously. )

(In fairness this could also work with the roles reversed. But I like Anakin as the jealous ex.)
