736 - It Happened One Night (1934)

Director Frank Capra returns to the podcast with his Oscar-hording smash hit romantic comedy starring Clark Gable and Claudette Colbert.  A glamorous heiress is on the run from her father as she embarks on a cross-country trek to get back to her playboy husband.  But a hard on his luck newspaperman knows a good story when he sees one, and takes her under his wing.  And wouldn't you know it?  These two hate each other!  Which is to say: they desperately love each other and just don't know it yet.
