His Gal Friday







My gold standard for film dialogue is Howard Hawks' His Gal Friday, starring Rosalind Russell & Cary Grant. Every time I watch this film (second in viewings by me right behind Mel Brooks, The Producers, 1968 ) I feel like the operator just strapped me into the roughest and best ride in the amusement park. I know what's coming and it never fails to thrill me.

This is one of my family's favorite movies. Well acted, hilarious and, as you said, easy to watch repeatedly.
