In the golden age of Hollywood's past,
A film dared to challenge the strictest cast,
"The Miracle of Morgan's Creek," a comedy bold,
Tackling censorship head on, its story told.
Set in a small Midwestern town,
Where Trudy's antics turn things upside down,
With war as the backdrop, humor as the key,
The film explores society with satire free.
Sturges' sharp dialogue and quick pace,
Bring laughter and wit to the screen's embrace,
Flawed characters, yet sympathetic still,
Navigate through chaos with comedic skill.
Betty Hutton shines as Trudy so sly,
Eddie Bracken as Norval, a loyal ally,
Through twists and turns, they find their way,
Challenging norms, they have their say.
Despite its flaws and dated feel,
"The Miracle of Morgan's Creek" holds appeal,
A case study in breaking censorship's chain,
A film that dares to entertain.
So let's raise a glass to Sturges' creation,
A comedy gem that defies expectation,
In the history of film, it stands tall and proud,
A testament to creativity, bold and loud.
