Product Description

Very funny comedy from the early 50's starring Judy holliday (Born Yesterday) as aspiring model Gladys Glover who attempts to boost her career by promoting herself on a New York billboard. Also starring Peter Lawford (Never So Few, Ocean's Eleven & Exodus) and introducing Jack Lemmon ( The Apartment, The Odd Couple, The Front Page). Life magazine described this at the time as "one of the films to come out of Hollywood", and although it's now quite old, it is still very funny.

While hardly in the 'Born Yesterday' or 'Marrying Kind' category of cinematic excellence, 'It Should Happen to You' is still marvellous fun. Garson Kanin wrote the script which is always reassuring, but it is so fluffy that it is almost nonexistent. Wonderfully naive, eternally hopeful and delightfully vivacious Judy Holliday is the luckless model who rents an enormous billboard space at Columbus Circle on Manhattan to advertise her name. A satire about the need to be famous for fame's own sake, a diagnosis for an illness which is all to wellknown in this age of reality shows, but it doesn't really go anywhere in the context of the film. Lemmon delivers a rather shaky debut performance, and Lawford is his usual charming, lascivious self.
Buy it for Holliday though. Anyone in his right mind would.
