Introduction by Marianna Cappi

(USA 1940) directed by Howard Hawks, starring Cary Grant, Rosalind Russell, B/W, duration: 92’, DCP Original version, Italian subtitles

On the eve of her second wedding, journalist Hildy Johnson is persuaded to accept one last assignment by her publisher and ex-husband: it will be an opportunity for a sensational scoop but also for a comeback. In an ingenious reversal, Hawks replaces the male protagonist of the famous play The Front Page with a woman and directs one of the best screwball comedies ever, abetted by a sublime cast in which the unmatched Cary Grant stands out.
