Make it a Valentine’s Day to remember with this special event screening of Howard Hawks’ 1940 screwball comedy classic, projected on 16mm as part of our ongoing Film On Film series!

When hard-charging New York newspaper editor Walter Burns (Cary Grant) discovers that his ex-wife, investigative reporter Hildy Johnson (Rosalind Russell), has gotten engaged to milquetoast insurance agent Bruce Baldwin (Ralph Bellamy), he unsuccessfully tries to lure her away from tame domestic life with a story about the impending execution of convicted murderer Earl Williams. But when Hildy discovers Williams may be innocent, her reporter instincts take over.

“A crackling, ingenious, and almost bewilderingly lively film.” – Guardian
