Film Screening and Discussion- His Girl Friday

February’s theme is “the course of true love never did run smooth”

This week’s film is the most scintillating screwball comedy in Hollywood history: His Girl Friday.

“Hildy, the journalist former wife of newspaper editor Walter Burns, visits his office to inform him that she’s engaged and will be getting remarried the next day. Walter can’t let that happen and frames the fiancé, Bruce Baldwin, for one thing after another, to keep him temporarily held in prison, while trying to steer Hildy into returning to her old job as his employee.”
