Review of His Girl Friday (1940) by Evan M — 24 Apr 2011
One of the all-time greatest comedies. Rapid-fire screwball dialogue has never been delivered with more nuance or comedic effect as Cary Grant and Rosalind Russell deliver it in His Girl Friday. The atmosphere, the high stakes, the multiple story lines brilliantly intertwined, this 40s classic from Howard Hawks is a master class in just about every field of sound era comedy. The finest hour for screwball subgenre 'the comedy of remarriage'.
5/5.
