Add to ORKGA collection of print books and DVDs from one of Hollywood\u27s most beloved eras: the screwball comedies of the 1930s and 40s. A precursor to today\u27s Romantic Comedies, screwball comedies -- such as It Happened One Night, The Philadelphia Story, and His Girl Friday -- are known for their clever dialogue and female-driven plots, in sharp contrast to the slapstick comedies of the same era, popularized by the Marx Brothers and The Three Stooges.https://egrove.olemiss.edu/jdw_exhibits/1007/thumbnail.jp
