HIS GIRL FRIDAY (1940) Classic Comedy Starring Cary Grant & Rosalind Russell
HIS GIRL FRIDAY (1940) Starring Cary Grant, Rosilind Russell and featuring Ralph Bellamy & Gene Lockhart. This screwball comedy film was directed by Howard Hawks. It was released in the U.S. by Columbia Pictures on January 18, 1940.
The film centers on a newspaper editor named Walter Burns who is about to lose his ace reporter and ex-wife, Hildy Johnson, newly engaged to another man. Burns suggests they cover one more story together, getting themselves entangled in the case of murderer Earl Williams as Burns desperately tries to win back his wife.

The screenplay was adapted from the 1928 play The Front Page by Ben Hecht and Charles MacArthur. This was the second time the play had been adapted for the screen, the first occasion being the 1931 film which kept the original title The Front Page.
The 1988 film "Switching Channels" was loosely based on His Girl Friday, with Burt Reynolds in the Walter Burns role, Kathleen Turner in the Hildy Johnson role, and Christopher Reeve in the role of Bruce.
His Girl Friday is in the public domain because the copyright was not renewed; the play it was based on remained under copyright for several decades until it expired in 2024, fully releasing the film from remaining copyright. This film is being presented for entertainment and historical purposes.
