2.0

Overrated for a "classic". The trials and tribulations of bored rich people with too much time on their hands in the 1920's.
Half of this could have been avoided if they kept it in their pants and discussed things properly.

Half a star taken away from this masterpiece for the jarring and horrible racial slurs and sexism that cropped up on occasion.
