His Girl Friday (1940) is a fast-paced screwball comedy directed by Howard Hawks and starring Cary Grant and Rosalind Russell. Set in the world of newspaper journalism, the film follows sharp-tongued reporter Hildy Johnson and her manipulative editor ex-husband as they battle wits, deadlines, and each other over one last big story. Famous for its rapid-fire dialogue and battle-of-the-sexes energy, the film remains a smart, funny portrait of ambition, love, and professional obsession — and a landmark of classic Hollywood comedy.
