Preston Sturges, the visionary American screenwriter and director, revolutionized the comedy genre with his witty dialogue, zany characters, and razor-sharp satire in classic films like "The Lady Eve" and "Sullivan's Travels." Renowned for his rapid-fire pacing and irreverent humor, Sturges' cinematic legacy continues to inspire filmmakers to push the boundaries of storytelling and entertain audiences with laughter and insight.
"I did all my directing when I wrote the screenplay. It was probably harder for a regular director. He probably had to read the script the night before shooting started."
