The Palm Beach Story

The captivating Claudette Colbert stars as the frustrated wife of struggling engineer Joel McCrea. In a seemingly amicable agreement, Colbert hops a train to Palm Beach where divorces come easy. Desperate to escape a group of obnoxious millionaires on the train to Florida, Colbert hides out in a sleeping car where she meets, unbeknownst to her, one of the world's richest men (Rudy Vallee) who is relentless in his attempt to romance her. Upon their arrival in Palm Beach, Colbert is met by her husband who has come to claim her back only to find that Vallee's man-crazy sister (Mary Astor) is after him! The foursome's story unfolds through intensely humorous dialogue, flirtatious situations and a splendid soundtrack.Starring: Claudette Colbert, Joel McCrea, Rudy ValleeDirected by: Preston Sturges Disc 1Run Time: 1 Hours and 28 MinutesMPAA Rating: Not RatedAudio: Dolby Digital 2.0 Mono (English)Subtitles: English SDH, French, SpanishPicture: Full Frame (1.33:1)ColorOther DVDs with Claudette Colbert:So Proudly We Hail, Midnight
