When a small-town girl is diagnosed with a rare and deadly disease, an ambitious journalist wants to turn her into a national hero.

Nothing Sacred presents the first use in a color film of process effects, montage and rear screen projection. The backgrounds for the rear projection were filmed on the streets of New York. Paramount Pictures and other studios refined this technique in their subsequent color features.

One of the reasons the film is considered one of the most celebrated screwball comedies is that beneath the humor, it incorporates strongly cynical themes of corruption and dishonesty. This film, along with Hecht's The Front Page (1931) and his 1940 remake His Girl Friday with Cary Grant, caricatures the chicanery that some newspapers resorted to in order to get a "hot" story.
