I don't see that you can appreciate the American cinema without recognizing his genius. To me however the great American Comedy is "His Girl Friday". I suppose it's all a matter of personal choice and preference though and I'm certainly not going to try to argue anyone out of loving the hell out of SLIH..

You got to be. One of my favorite movies of all time. Marilyn's walk. Tony Curtis doing Carry Grant. Joe E. Brown's last line "Well, nobody's perfect," a very early nod to the acceptance of homosexuality. That movie was a cinema milestone, no doubt. It marked the end of the 50s, which ended in around '62-63. In other news, just watched "The Defiant Ones" on cable (again) yesterday. Amazing flick. So deep. [1] Are you kidding me? You got to be.
