If you read my review of "It Happened One Night" then you know I loved it.

I am not sure if I would have been able to forgive you if you didn't like this & The Awful Truth. :)<br /><br />But those two films (and It Happened One Night) are my top 3 Screwball Comedies.<br /><br />If you like Screwball Comedies then I also recommend three others directed by Hawks: His Girl Friday, Twentieth Century, & Ball of Fire.Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01798552679871435314noreply@blogger.com
