Review of His Girl Friday (1940) by Simon D — 13 Dec 2015

Another very overrated film. This frequently appears in the lists of greatest movies ever made and I can't fathom the reason at all. Is there really anybody out there who laughs at a group of trilbied blokes firing NYC accented lines at each other so fast that they are scared they're gonna run out of film.

I don't and couldn't find anything else to laugh about in this "classic comedy" either. The critics should really move on, like the world of comedy has.
