It is funny and entertaining in the patient, well-crafted construction, and gentle way movies used to be made.
No in-your-face shock value, gratutious profanity or layered social commentary as is de rigeur by the current crop of rudderless filmmakers.
Like the vast majority of movies from the truly Golden Age, it respects its audience and in doing so, life itself.

Hollywood did have to censor the last line of the play when they made this into a movie. On stage, he said something a bit stronger than "I'm the son of a sea cook!"
