Comedy in which an eccentric upper-crust family invite a tramp to be their butler, soon discovering that he is both richer and more worldly than they., One of the landmark “screwball” comedies of the 1930s, My Man Godfrey offers the radiant Carole Lombard in her definitive performance as flighty young heiress Irene Bullock, who on a society scavenger hunt stumbles on Godfrey (William Powell), an erudite hobo residing in the city dump. Godfrey becomes the family’s butler, much to the dismay of Irene’s father Alexander (Eugene Pallette), who thinks his household is crazy enough without another apparent lunatic under his roof. Halfway through the film, we discover that Godfrey isn’t a penniless bum at all, but the scion of a wealthy Boston family. Having been burned by an unhappy romance, Godfrey dropped out of life, taking up residence in the dump. Here his faith in humanity was restored by his fellow indigents, who managed to survive and remain optimistic despite the worst deprivations. Meanwhile, however, he wants to straighten out the Bullock family, who he feels are a basically decent bunch beneath all their pretensions and eccentricities — and along the way, of course, Irene determines that Godfrey will be her husband. While Godfrey’s ultimate “solution” to the exigencies of the Depression seems more of a placebo, My Man Godfrey is all in all a totally satisfying jolt of 1930s-style wish fulfillment., A madcap socialite heiress hires an erudite homeless man to be her butler, much to the dismay of her father, but it turns out that the man isn’t a penniless bum at all, he’s a member of a wealthy Boston family.
