Re: 100 films: His Girl Friday
I've always like His Girl Friday, though I'm not a big fan of Rosalind Russel. Although she plays a woman in a mans world, she's a bit to husky to be charming. Jennifer Jason Leigh plays essentially the same character in Hudsucker Proxy, and is much better.
Howard Hawkes might not be greatest american director, but he's probably in the top five. He made Bringing Up Baby, also starring Grant, which might not be greatest comedy every made, but its probably in the top five.
