The CinePearl Take

His Girl Friday is a classic-era English film that blends comedy of remarriage, comedy drama and romantic comedy — expect charming banter and a love story that keeps you smiling and character-driven, emotional storytelling. Howard Hawks directs and the script comes from Ben Hecht. Pat West and Harry C. Bradley are among the leads. Made in United States, it is a natural pick for anyone exploring English-language films. Released in 1940, it has had time to build an audience and word of mouth. At 90 minutes, it keeps a brisk pace.
