Time spent watching films, even crappy ones, is time well-spent.

The Affairs of Cellini (1934)

Cellini is the court goldsmith, but works a lot harder at wooing every pretty woman he sees than at his craft. He's also well-known as an indiscriminate murderer, but somehow he always manages to wrangle a pardon for his crimes. When the duchess sets her eyes on him, his good luck finally takes a turn.

This is just a lot of fun. Frank Morgan as the Duke is particularly funny as a wanna-be philanderer who can't manage to put anything past his wife.
