He asks Jonathan what he would like to wear, only to have the shower door fly open as a shower-capped Valentine Ransome pokes her head out and asks for a bath towel. Butch stutters and stammers, grabs a brassiere by mistake, and finally hands Val a towel before fleeing pell-mell from the room.<\/p>\n<p>So begins the series of nutty happenings in RKO\u2019s 1937 screwball comedy Breakfast for Two, starring <a title=\"Barbara Stanwyck\" href=\"http:\/\/www.moviesunlimited.com\/musite\/findresults_actor_smart.asp?search=Barbara+Stanwyck\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Barbara Stanwyck<\/a>, <a title=\"Herbert Marshall\" href=\"http:\/\/www.moviesunlimited.com\/musite\/findresults_actor_smart.asp?search=Herbert+Marshall\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Herbert Marshall<\/a>, and <a title=\"Eric Blore\" href=\"http:\/\/www.moviesunlimited.com\/musite\/findresults_actor_smart.asp?search=Eric+Blore\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Eric Blore<\/a>. Filmed and released immediately after Stanwyck\u2019s Oscar-nominated performance in Stella Dallas, Breakfast provided a respite for the actress after the emotionally-draining role of self-sacrificing mother Stella, and its breezy daffiness is nothing short of entertaining. And \u201cdaffy\u201d is the perfect word to define this movie\u2013after all, how else could you describe a film with a gigantic \u201ctalking\u201d dog named Peewee, the wildest wedding this side of a <a title=\"Preston Sturges  \" href=\"http:\/\/www.moviesunlimited.com\/musite\/findresults_director_smart.asp?search=Preston+Sturges++\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Preston Sturges <\/a>flick, and a heroine named Valentine?<\/p>\n<p>Despite her flowery name, Stanwyck\u2019s Val is no shrinking violet\u2013she\u2019s a ball-busting Texas heiress determined to reform the wastrel Jonathan (Marshall), save his failing business, rescue him from the clutches of ditzy blond debutante \u201cactress\u201d Carol Wallace (<a title=\"Glenda Farrell\" href=\"http:\/\/www.moviesunlimited.com\/musite\/findresults_actor_smart.asp?search=Glenda+Farrell\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Glenda Farrell<\/a>), and make him prime husband material. She is aided in her quest by Butch (Blore), who decides almost immediately that Val is just the woman for his boss, and through a series of comical mishaps, the playboy and the businesswoman find their happy ending.<\/p>\n<p>The film is a gender-skewed take on the Taming of the Shrew trope: Jonathan is a misogynistic dilettante whose behavior is eventually modified through the exertions of the wily Val. And she certainly has her work cut out for her, because with every fiber of his being, Jonathan seems to loathe the female sex. When Butch tries to talk to him about his financial problems, he impatiently dismisses him: \u201cStop nagging. You\u2019re being feminine and I don\u2019t like it.\u201d To Jonathan, any sign of femininity is a weakness, and though he obviously enjoys the company of women in a sexual sense, he has little respect for their abilities.<\/p>\n<p>Because of this, Val\u2019s dominant personality disconcerts Jonathan and puts him off-balance throughout the film. He doesn\u2019t know how to react to her; she doesn\u2019t waver and simper like the typical women he consorts with\u2013she is his equal and, in some ways, his better, and that simply does not compute. Jonathan\u2019s reaction after Valentine buys the company is predictable: he believes she \u201ctook him home\u201d to pump him for information about the company\u2019s financial situation. Val remains calm in the face of his anger, which only serves to infuriate him more: \u201dYou\u2019re the type of woman who wants to wear the pants! All right, MISTER, wear them! Trip over them! And break your neck!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For her part, Val has inexplicably formed an attachment to Jonathan, and she takes ownership of him from the start. Initially, Val views him with humor and indulgence\u2013she has decided to marry this man-child, but she accepts that she must first bring him to heel. When her uncle Sam (<a title=\"Frank M. Thomas\" href=\"http:\/\/www.moviesunlimited.com\/musite\/findresults_actor_smart.asp?search=Frank+M.+Thomas\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Frank M. Thomas<\/a>) tries to talk some sense into his niece, Valentine confidently brushes off his concerns:<\/p>\n<p>Sam: \u201cAh, come on! Who cares about a crazy bronco that\u2013\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Val: \u201cI\u2019ve seen you turn many a crazy bronco into a fine horse, Sam.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Sam: \u201cYeah, but human flesh hasn\u2019t got the sense of horse flesh!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Val: \u201cSometimes they both need a whip to put some sense into them. First you have to slip a bit in his mouth and \u2026 make him like it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>To that end, Val does everything in her power to goad Jonathan to \u201ctake it like a man.\u201d When, after his initial outburst, Jonathan decides that he cannot fight her and win back his company, Val insults him and questions his manhood. When Val purchases Jonathan\u2019s house, and he finds her in the home gymnasium, he peevishly tells her that he\u2019ll be leaving as soon as he can remove his personal belongings, \u201cunless, of course, you counted on getting them, too.\u201d Val\u2019s nonchalant reply\u2013\u201dNo, thanks. You need your clothes in order to look like a man\u201d\u2013incites Jonathan\u2019s rage, just as she intends. He\u2019s putty in her hands, and you know that eventually, Val will get her way. She is just that determined.<\/p>\n<p>This is not to say that Jonathan does not get under Val\u2019s skin, too. She\u2019s going to make a man out of him even if she has to beat him into acting like one \u2026 which she does, handily, in one of the funniest scenes of the film. When he confronts her in the gymnasium of his home\u2013which he has just discovered that she bought out from under him\u2013Blair accuses Val of tricking him so that she could get her hands on the family business. An exchange of insults follows, and Val throws down the gauntlet by picking up a nearby boxing glove and smacking Jonathan across the face with it. When he bemoans that her womanhood prevents him from being able to smack her right back, she tells him, \u201cDon\u2019t let that stop you!,\u201d and the fight is on. And by the end of it, both Jonathan and hapless bystander Butch are sporting black eyes.<\/p>\n<p>The lesson here? Don\u2019t mess with Barbara Stanwyck. She\u2019ll kick your ass.<\/p>\n<p>When Carol becomes a problem, Val makes short work of her, too. Carol is determined to marry Jonathan herself, but Val attempts to circumvent Carol\u2019s plan by naming Jonathan vice president of the company, so that he need not wed Carol for her money. But Jonathan figures out Val\u2019s intent to reform him and decides to do whatever it takes to ruin her plans\u2013even if it means going through with marriage to the insufferably witless Carol. In response, Val implements an increasingly zany series of distractions to interrupt not one, but TWO ceremonies, from a group of loudly squeaking window washers to Uncle Sam\u2019s claim that Carol is the mother of his children \u2026 and Butch even gets in on the act with a faked marriage certificate!<a href=\"http:\/\/www.moviefanfare.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/Two.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-21932 alignright\" title=\"Two\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/www.moviefanfare.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/Two.jpg\" width=\"427\" height=\"210\" srcset=\"https:\/\/onecinephile.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/Two.jpg 610w, https:\/\/onecinephile.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/Two-300x147.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 427px) 100vw, 427px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I guess it\u2019s no surprise to say that, in the end, Val\u2019s plan is effective; in his desire to thwart her, Jonathan perversely becomes a responsible leadership figure within his own company, to Val\u2019s endless pleasure and pride. The dizzy blonde is sent packing, Val\u2019s bucking bronco is effectively tamed, and they all live happily, crazily, ever after.<\/p>\n<p>Breakfast for Two may not be as well-remembered as some of its screwball counterparts of the 1930s, but it is nonetheless charming and genuinely funny, helped immensely by a smart script and an effective cast (notably the ever-entertaining Blore and a hilarious turn by Donald Meek as the Justice of the Peace whose premarital spiel keeps getting interrupted). And Stanwyck, in what could be considered the first truly \u201cscrewball\u201d role of her career, is easily the highlight of the film, handily demonstrating the comic timing and innate sense of fun that she would bring to future screwball classics like <a title=\"The Mad Miss Manton  \" href=\"http:\/\/www.moviesunlimited.com\/musite\/product.asp?sku=D56230&amp;loc=buzzsearch\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">The Mad Miss Manton <\/a>(1938) and <a title=\"The Lady Eve\" href=\"http:\/\/www.moviesunlimited.com\/musite\/findresults_title_smart.asp?search=The+Lady+Eve\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">The Lady Eve<\/a>\u00a0and Ball of Fire (both 1941).<\/p>\n<div><em>Brandie Ashe is a freelance writer and editor from Alabama.\u00a0<\/em><em>Brandie and her blog co-authors, Carrie and Nikki, moderate <\/em><a href=\"http:\/\/trueclassics.wordpress.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"><em><strong>True Classics<\/strong><\/em><\/a><em>, where they share their collective love of Alfred Hitchcock, screwball comedies, Cary Grant, and all things old-school animation.
