Ball of Fire
In Howard Hawks’ 1941 comedy, Barbara Stanwyck plays a stripper with a penchant for snappy patter and Gary Cooper is the bookish grammarian who decides she’s a suitable case for study. Cooper is surrounded by a like-minded bunch of fussbudgets based on the seven dwarves making Stanwyck’s character a very unlikely Snow White. Billy Wilder wrote the story and collaborated on the screenplay with Charles Brackett. Danny Kaye starred in a musical remake, A Song is Born.
