Kick-Back Friday: #18

Need breakneck-speed dialogue and funny-looking women's hats? Here's your movie: Howard Hawks's His Girl Friday, a sexed-up remake of the journalistic screwball comedy, The Front Page.

Hawks evidently encouraged (or simply tolerated) ad libbing and private jokes on the set by his two stars, Cary Grant and Rosalind Russell. For example, see if you can spot Cary Grant reference his real name.*

Closed captioning is highly recommended, if not urged.

*...which is?
