HIS GIRL FRIDAY (1940)

Posted on October 2, 2026October 2, 2026 By The Body House No Comments on HIS GIRL FRIDAY (1940)

SCREWBALL COMEDY * RATING G * RUNTIME 1 HR. 32 MIN.

When Hildy (Russell) shows up to announce she’s quitting the business to marry a dull, dependable insurance man, Walter (Grant) schemes to pull her back into one last story — the sensational case of a condemned murderer — hoping to win back both his best reporter and his former wife in the process. Adapted from the play, The Front Page, the film reworks the lead reporter role as a woman, turning newsroom rivalry into rapid-fire romantic sparring.
