I know it's been discussed in the Hawks thread but I think it deserves it's own.
Just caught this on TV. Amazing, I laughed out loud alot.
I can totally see the Cary Grant -> George Clooney similarities.
What makes it is the dialogue and the actors. Had to be groundbreaking in the 40s, stepping on eachothers lines.
Like Hudsucker Proxy? You will love this.
Alot of praise here but I can't honestly find something negative about it.
One of my favorites.
One of Tarantino's favorites.
I remember when I first read Pulp Fiction, Tarantino said the dialogue in the first scene was fast, like His Girl Friday.
Shortly after, I caught His Girl Friday on TCM and LOVED it. It was a heck of a lot funnier than I thought it would be. It's great.
fuckin hilarious. i love this movie. always have.
i taped over it.
Loved it to pieces. Hawks' was better than Wilder's.
Couldn't get into it cause some ass next to me decides to be the loudest person in class at all times. He loved to let me know when he was laughing even when I was blatantly ignoring him.

I so fully agree. Grrrooowrr.
This is a great, funny, sexy, perfectly paced souffle of a movie. It should be seen by everyone.
i liked it but i didnt love it. i thought it started out great, but then was really dragging in the final act. it put down the funny. i prefer Bringing Up Baby for sheer madcap awesome from start to finish.
I loved "His Girl Friday." But check this out... http://www.thezreview.co.uk/comingsoon/h/herguyfriday.shtm I don't know about that, though.
