The movie bears reviewing because there's always something new in the confetti of one-liners, while its depiction of the Fourth Estate remains relevant.
Cary Grant's performance is truly virtuoso -- stunning technique applied to the most challenging material.
Casting is excellent, with Cary Grant and Rosalind Russell in the top roles.
It takes you by the scruff of the neck in the first reel and it shakes you madly, bellowing hoarsely the. while, for the remaining six or seven. Before it's over you don't know whether you have been laughing or having your ears boxed.
Sassy, screwball classic with a feminist twist.
Have the movies ever talked this quickly, before or since?
One is tempted to throw away any semblance of persuasion and simply demand that you go see this movie.
The ultimate lesson of His Girl Friday--that it's tougher to manage a marriage than a newspaper--looks in 2008 like pure nostalgia.
It's exactly the type of craziness that good newspapers thrive on. Stop the presses.
One of the best screwball comedies, a remake that improves on the source material due to Hawks brilliant idea of changing the protag's gender thus turning it into a romantic "newspaper" film; Cary Grant, Rosalind Russell, and Ralph Bellamy at their best
O ritmo frenético com que os excelentes diálogos são trocados (algo inovador para a época) e o timing cômico impecável de Grant e Russell garantem a permanência deste filme na lista de clássicos inquestionáveis.
A double espresso is needed to keep up with the rapid-fire exchanges of Hawks' no-holds-barred muckraking comedy.
I've tried to love His Girl Friday, really I have.
Perhaps the funniest, certainly the fastest talkie comedy ever made.
