Synopsis: After his divorce, a newspaper editor realizes he has lost not only his wife but also his best collaborator. Determined to stop her from remarrying, he offers her the opportunity to conduct an exclusive interview with a death row inmate. This film is an original adaptation where journalist Hildy is a woman, allowing the director to add a battle of the sexes element to the scoop rivalry between Cary Grant and Rosalind Russell.
Reviews: "Prodigious." (Cinema Guide, Télérama Ed.) "Anchored by stellar performances from Grant and Russell, 'His Girl Friday' is possibly the definitive screwball romantic comedy." (Rotten Tomatoes)
