The inimitable Rosalind Russell and Cary Grant star in this quintessential screwball comedy from 1940. On the eve of her second marriage, fast-talking reporter Hildy Johnson (Russell) is convinced to take on one last assignment by her editor and ex-husband, Walter Burns (Grant). When she discovers that her subject—a man on death row—has been wrongfully convicted of murder, her razor-sharp reporting instincts take over. Hildy and Walter embark on a whirlwind mission to save the prisoner from the gallows, and along the way, become more hopelessly romantically entangled than ever. With its rapid-fire dialogue, delightfully slapstick comedy and scorching chemistry, His Girl Friday launched one of the most genre-defining relationships in film history.
