It Happened One Night
Dir.: Frank Capra | 105 minutes

It Happened One Night

USA 1934 | 105 minutes | English | Hebrew subtitles

Gable is a journalist who meets heiress Colbert while she is running away from her father. It Happened One Night is considered the pioneer of romantic comedies, and certainly set the standard for the entire genre: witty dialogues, an elliptical narrative structure, a relationship that gains momentum and some fun anarchic element. Here, with an acting pair who would become superstars, on the knees of the humor that Lubitsch brought from Europe, Frank Capra created the all-American romantic comedy. The result is a classic that is an entertaining today as it was 90 year ago.
