''Nothing Sacred'' is a 1937 ScrewballComedy starring Creator/CaroleLombard and Creator/FredricMarch, directed by Creator/WilliamAWellman. Lombard is Hazel Flagg, a young woman from the dull small town of Warsaw, Vermont, who is suffering from a fatal case of radium poisoning. Wally Cook (March), a newspaper reporter who is deep in his editor's doghouse, goes to Warsaw to interview Hazel for a story. Just as he arrives there, Hazel finds out she is ''not'' dying (it turns out her doctor is well-meaning but incompetent). Not wanting to miss the free trip to New York that Wally's paper is offering her, Hazel keeps the secret of her perfect health to herself. She rapidly becomes the most talked-about person in town, while falling in love with Wally, and panicking at the thought of her secret being exposed.

* HypocriticalHumor: From Dr. Downer: "I'm disgusted with you, Hazel! Getting drunk in the middle of a memorial. Shame on you! *hic*

!!Tropes:

* YourDaysAreNumbered: At first, Hazel really did think her days were numbered.

* FlippingTheBird: Used for a pretty amazing joke in 1937. Hazel is attending a fancy stage show where the performers are dressed like great women of history. One is Katinka, "the Dutch girl who stuck her finger in the dike." The MC urges the actress to "show them the finger, babe", and she shows her bandaged but definitely upraised middle finger. (The bit about the "dike" is probably [[DoubleEntendre another joke]].
