His Girl Friday (1940)
Drama/Comedy/Romance · 1h 32m · 1/3/2006
Description
Based on the 1931 play "The Front Page" by Ben Hecgt (Notorious, Angles Over Broadway) and directed by Howard Hawls (Bringing Up Baby, Gentlemen Prefer Blonds), this fast-paced screwball comedy stars the impeccable Gary Grant as Walter Burns, the unscrupulous editor of a Chicago tabiold. Rosalind Russell co-stars as Hildy Johnson, ace reporter and ex-wife of Burns. Covinced that the newspaper can print any article that will save the life of a man sentenced to hang for a murder he didn't commit, Burns needs Hildy to write the front-page story. Unfortunately, Hildy has just announced that she's quitting the newspaper business and about to remarry. Witty, rapid-fire dialogue replaces sight gags as Burns attempts to charm the conflicted Hildy into returning to her job ... and to him!
