It’s Love I’m After is a 1937 American comedy film directed by Archie Mayo and starring Leslie Howard, Bette Davis, and Olivia de Havilland.

Despite constant bickering on and off stage, Shakespearean actors Basil Underwood (Howard) and Joyce Arden (Davis) intend to marry after their closing performance in Romeo and Juliet. But following the show, debutante Marcia West (de Havilland), smitten by Basil’s interpretation of Romeo, visits backstage to declare him the perfect man for her. Basil is initially flattered by her attentions, which enrages Joyce – until they both find Marcia more than they can handle.

Full supporting programme.
