Thanks for linking to the article. I really love a lot of her examples with Katherine Hepburn (a great choice for examples since she was labelled Box Office Poison and had her contract bought out and everything), but it is true that a lot of them are silly plots. As today's are too. And some aren't hits (Bringing up Baby was a huge flop and Desk Set only moderately successful). I think the charm is what is often lacking today in the writing.
