Screwball Saturdays at the Library

During the Golden Age of Hollywood, a new type of romantic comedy was born—the screwball comedy. Join us at the Jefferson Market Library this winter for some madcap adventures when we screen some of the best of the genre.

Saturday, February 2 at 3:00 pm
 His Girl Friday (1940), directed by Howard Hawks and starring Cary Grant, Rosalind Russell, and Ralph Bellamy.
When an ace reporter announces she’s leaving the newspaper world behind to settle into domestic life with a new husband, her demanding editor and ex-husband schemes to keep her on staff and win back her heart in the process.

Writer and producer Michele Gouveia will introduce the films.

Presented in the first floor Willa Cather Community Room. All events are free and open to the public.
