Review of His Girl Friday (1940) by Matt G — 29 Mar 2010
Probably one of the greatest films ever made. The fact that it was so relevant and judgmental of the time is why it stands apart from most screwball comedies. The chemistry is amazing and Cary Grant delivers one of his many knockout performances as Walter Burns.
The newspaper aspect is perfect for the fast dialogue and quick witted humor. While itâ??s funny, itâ??s also got a very tragic and serious note to it. The political scandal in which an innocent man is framed and a woman is drawn to suicide is really makes it a more effective movie.
I would say that itâ??s the most well done romantic comedy ever without any debate.
