Double Feature - My Man Godfrey/ His Girl Friday (DVD)
Two of the most adored and acclaimed Hollywood romantic comedies of all time make up this excellent double feature. Both are wacky, chaotic yet sophisticated forays into the screwball comedy genre. The male-female teams of Cary Grant and Rosalind Russell in HIS GIRL FRIDAY and William Powell and Carole Lombard in MY MAN GODFREY served as the blueprint for predecessors like Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks.NR"
