About Snowed Under
Alan Tanner's new play opens in a week, but he just can't finish the third act. He's retreated to a snowbound cottage to work, but blonde neighbor Pat Quinn wants to play. Producer Arthur Layton sends Alice, Alan's first ex-wife, to help him stick to business. But then Daisy, his second ex-wife, shows up wanting her alimony. Stranded with two ex-wives, a girlfriend, and a jug of applejack, Alan still has to finish his play!
Directed by Ray Enright, Snowed Under leans on a strong ensemble — George Brent, Genevieve Tobin, Glenda Farrell — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 1936.
