The first-rate supporting cast includes Gale Sondergaard as the governor\'s treacherous wife and the frog-voiced Eugene Pallette (Friar Tuck in <em>The Adventures of Robin Hood</em>) as a padre in cahoots with the masked one.
Flynn\'s confidence and cocky charm makes for a perfect Robin Hood, and his easygoing manner is a marvelous counterpoint to Rathbone\'s regal bearing and courtly diction.
To give away the plot machinations driving the farce would spoil the fun, beyond confirming impersonations, mixed signals, and misunderstandings as the turns in a consistently rollicking ride that makes good use of Charles Coburn and screwball character veterans Eugene Pallette, William Demarest, and Eric Blore.

So I end up waiting for the great character actor Eugene Pallette to brighten the proceedings, and he is far and away the most interesting character in the latter part of the story.
The movie is only sporadically funny, and it seems to get most of its mileage with the racial stereotype that Scots are penny-pinching, though my favorite gag along this line has a servant answering a guest's question as to what the difference is between grouse and duck.

Lombard's zany sweetness however, he can't resist, and so he helps her win the contest and goes on to take a job as the family butler.
Buttling for this family should be a piece of cake, except that the daughters are both spoiled brats, the mother (Alice Brady) is a scatterbrain with a very untalented musical protege (Mischa Auer), and the father (Eugene Pallette) is a tempermental boor who constantly complains of his family's lazy ways.

Godfrey takes the job, but he soon realizes that the Bullocks are virtually insane — mother Angelica (Alice Brady) is a babbler who sees pixies when suffering hangovers, and her protégé, artist Carlo (Mischa Auer), has no discernible talents other than a voluminous appetite and the ability to imitate a monkey.
Meanwhile, sister Cornelia plots petty revenge on Godfrey because he pushed her in an ash pile, maid Molly (Jean Dixon) spends her time making fun of the family, father Alexander (Eugene Pallette) is entirely befuddled and also sounds like a bullfrog, and Irene is lovelorn for Godfrey, caring for nothing else when he's nearby.
Godfrey was directed by former film-animator Gregory La Cava, who understood how to balance a screwball comedy between the absurd set-pieces and hilariously sharp dialogue.
