 the definitive 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.\n\n"My 
 Man Godfrey" was nominated for 6 Academy Awards in 1936, including Best 
 Director, and was the first film to be nominated in all four acting 
 categories.  It oddly was not nominated for Best Picture (which still 
 puzzles people to this day), and even more strangely, failed to win any 
 awards.\n\n https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2009/10/26/18626784.php
