It has been done much better with Lemmon and Dennis. We have no sympathy nor empathy for the characters. Surprising no chemistry between Martin and Hawn, even after they fall in love again. John Cleese, as often in his roles, steals the comedic limelight.

The Farmer's Wife
(1928)
Hitchcock funniest film
3 April 1999
Very funny. I never realized Hitchcock could do slapstick. Surprised to find the story and characters easy to follow and identify with even with the near lack of title cards. The best silent Hitchcock film I have seen and maybe the funniest film he ever made.
