F Bomb in Four's A Crowd

[mrslovesmr]

Last night we were watching Four's A Crowd with Errol Flynn, Olivia deHavilland and Rosalind Russell. Although the movie was made in 1938, about thirty-nine to forty minutes into it, the father bursts into Olivia deHavilland's room, sees her dancing around, then seems to say "what the f*** is going on?" He repeats it a few moments later. Did we hear correctly? 😟

No, you didn't.  Maybe Walter Connolly's rather gruff delivery of his lines misled you.  The exact dialogue (starting at 8:29 in this clip) is:

Connolly: "Well, what is this?"

De Havilland (offscreen): "Hello, grandpa."

Connolly: "Well, what's going on here?  What is this, a ballet school?"

It appears you are unaware of the production code.
