Classic screwball comedy directed by Howard Hawks. Written by Ben Hecht and Charles MacArthur. Cary Grant plays Walter Burns, editor of a major Chicago newspaper, who is about to lose his ace reporter and former wife, Hildy Johnson (Rosalind Russell), to insurance salesman Bruce Baldwin (Ralph Bellamy), but not without a fight! The crafty editor uses every trick in his fedora to get Hildy to write one last big story, about murderer Earl Williams and the inept Sheriff Hartwell. The comedy snowballs as William's friend, Molly Malloy, the crooked Mayor, and Bruce's mother all get tied up in Walter's web. The incredible combination of Cary Grant, Rosalind Russell, and Ralph Bellamy in the main roles made this movie one of the all time classic comedies.
