Aboard a cruise liner sailing up the coast of South America, Stanwyck’s conniving card sharp sets her sights on Fonda’s nerdy snake researcher, who happens to be the heir to a brewery fortune. But when the con artist falls for her mark, her grift becomes a game of hearts—and she is determined to win it all. One in a string of matchless comedic marvels that Sturges wrote and directed as part of a dazzling 1940s run, this gender-flipped battle-of-wits farce is perhaps his most emotionally satisfying work, tempering its sparkling humor with a streak of tender poignancy supplied by the sensational Stanwyck at her peak.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"header_lvl2 hideSmall\" data-feature-title-field=\"\"\u003eBLU-RAY SPECIAL EDITION FEATURES\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-features-list\" data-special-features-field=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew, restored 4K digital transfer, with uncompressed monaural soundtrack\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAudio commentary from 2001 featuring film scholar Marian Keane\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntroduction from 2001 by filmmaker Peter Bogdanovich\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew conversation among writer-director Preston Sturges’s biographer and son Tom Sturges; Bogdanovich; filmmakers James L.
