Rating: - THOROUGHLY ENJOYABLE FAST PACED GRANT FILM!
I bought a box set containing this film and four other Grant classics, This being the second one I've watched is the best so far. This film is full of quick fire dialogue that is funny and intelligent. Grant and Russell are exceptional, but the entire cast is burning on all cylinders in this 70 years fresh "screwball" comedy.

You can't get dialogue more whip smart, faster, and ... Read More

The director Howard Hawks put together one of the best comedies ever committed to film! Grant & Russell were married but now divorced before the movie starts. He's the editor of a newspaper & she's the ace reporter. They can't stand each other but they're the perfect team.
This is considered to be of the ... Read More
Rating: - "I often wish you weren't such a stinker!"
Cary Grant is such a great comedic actor! He doesn't even need to say anything - those facial expressions! Hilarious!
Walter Burns (Cary Grant) is the editor of the Morning newspaper and boss of his ex-wife, Hildy Johnson (Rosalind Russell). Hildy is an ace reporter who decides to get married and get away from the newspaper business to lead "a normal human life."
