Review of His Girl Friday (1940) by Nathan A — 29 Jan 2009
"Diabetes! I ought to know better than to hire anybody with a disease!" Sarcastic comments and fancy word work spray around this movie like machine gun fire! And its all so slick you'd think people actually talked like that.
What if my boss and I interacted like that...? Boss: "Listen, you insignificant, square-toed, pimpled-headed spy..." Myself: "No you shut up and listen, you great big bubble-headed baboon!" Boss: "Sir, you are a cock-eyed liar!" Myself: "The last man that said that to me was Archie Leach just a week before he cut his throat!" That would be a funny sight indeed.
Did you know; Cary Grant's real name was Archie Leach.
