Sullivan’s Travels (U) * Romany Revisited

Sullivan’s Travels (U) – 1941, USA, 90 mins

Director: Preston Sturges

Tired of churning out lightweight comedies, Hollywood director John L. Sullivan (Joel McCrea) decides to make “O Brother, Where Art Thou?” a serious, socially responsible film about human suffering. After his producers point out that he knows nothing of hardship, Sullivan hits the road disguised as a hobo. En route to enlightenment, he encounters a lovely but no-nonsense young woman (Veronica Lake) – and more trouble than he ever dreamed of.
