Review of His Girl Friday (1940) by Al P — 11 Apr 2010
Time for me to anger some people: the fact that Cary grant is offscreen for a large portion of this movie was a damn good decision. His performance is fine, but the character goes from funny to loathsome so quickly that I was glad not to have to spend too much time with him, and when he turns back up for the final act I was pretty irritated.
Hildy is someone to root for, and I was engaged with the crime story, but I did not want Grant and Roz to end up together. What a creep.
