[Full review in Spanish]. |, April 2, 2008 It's always interesting to watch classic films that have a very different tone and feel to anything that comes out in today's world. Roughest spots in the original versions have been sandpapered or excised, the pressroom's whiskey cynicism toned down to half of one per cent, but the comedy still has enough Hecht-MacArthur kick to make later interpolations smell synthetic.
Cary Grant plays Walter Burns, the editor of the Morning Post., while Rosalind Russell plays his ex-wife and reporter Hildegard 'Hildy' Johnson.
and the Terms and Policies, If you look at the editing for films that come out today, it's smoother and the cuts aren't usually very noticeable. When hard-charging New York newspaper editor Walter Burns (Cary Grant) discovers that his ex-wife, investigative reporter Hildy Johnson (Rosalind Russell), has gotten engaged to milquetoast insurance agent Bruce Baldwin (Ralph Bellamy), he unsuccessfully tries to lure her away from tame domestic life with a story about the impending execution of convicted murderer Earl Williams.

Hawks' big change from the play was the decision to make Hildy a woman. 8.5/10.

Just below that it reads "Ticket Confirmation#:" followed by a 10-digit number. |, August 5, 2020 I guess the term "screwball" couldn't be more well illustrated than by this laugh-out-loud comedy whose characters shoot their overlapping lines in an insanely frenetic rhythm, with Grant and Russell simply hilarious and displaying an enormous chemistry together. | Rating: 8/10 Whether it's the delayed reactions between each of the fast talking characters, or the insane and hectic phone conversations the writers are having throughout the picture, His Girl Friday has plenty of entertainment.
If it wasn't so humorous, it might be a downright horrific examination of true love. By creating an account, you agree to the Privacy Policy In comparison to other comedies close to its release, such as The Philadelphia Story, another one of Grant's remarriage films, I think His Girl Friday has a much lighter tone.
