His Girl Friday

This 1940 film is based on a play "The Front Page" about an editor and his ace reporter. Well when Howard Hawks decided to adapt the play he decided that the ace reporter should be played by a woman. This decision has led to one of the funniest movies ever filmed. With rapid fire overlapping dialogue this film was a game changer.  I watch this film at least once a year and I always discover something new. Check it out and prepare to laugh.

Carey Grant will be all over this list so don't think you have seen the last of him.
