DVD review from The Movie Snob.

Nothing Sacred (D). I picked this 1937 "classic" up in a bargain bin somewhere and finally gave it a view last night. It is barely watchable. Blond bombshell Carole Lombard plays Hazel Flagg, a small-town Vermont girl who is erroneously diagnosed as having terminal radium poisoning. (No one ever stops to ask how she could get exposed to that much radium in the one-horse town of Warsaw, Vermont.) Frederic March is a New York City reporter desperately in need of a scoop, so, hearing of Flagg's plight, he whisks her back to the Big Apple where she becomes a big sensation. The problem is that she actually knows that the diagnosis was wrong, and it's just a matter of time before she is revealed as a fraud. Although I take it that this is a fairly well-regarded "screwball comedy," I thought it was tedious and unfunny. Fortunately it was only 75 minutes long.
