Oh, so right @Susan Louise --  you and hubby have great taste.  A comedy to end all comedies.  I love the way Howard Hawks the director had them speed up the dialog, so that just like in real life sometimes, people were talking rapid-fire, talking over each other, etc.

 

Cary Grant and Rosalind Russell seemed to be having the time of their lives playing a conniving editor (him) and an ace reporter (her).  That brilliantly staged scene in the restaurant with poor, innocent Ralph Bellamy--  he never had a chance!

This film features some of my favorite movie dialogue.  "All About Eve" is another favorite with many memorable lines.

I love Cary Grant movies. I wish leading man look like that now.
