IT HAPPENED ONE NIGHT (1934) - ♦♦♦♦

Directed by - Frank Capra

Written by - Robert Riskin (based on a short story by Samuel Hopkins Adams)

Starring - Clark Gable, Claudette Colbert

"A spoiled heiress running away from home is helped by a reporter looking for a story. The perfect balance of sexual charge and romantic charm makes this one of the most loved and influential of the classic Hollywood screwball comedy genre, and perhaps even the most interestingly different film in Capra’s illustrious filmography. The script ensures a good entertaining pace, while the a-list match of Gable and Colbert shares some great chemistry both in a romantic and comedic way. Some scenes are particularly memorable, like the walls of Jericho sequence and the piece where the two need to hitch a ride."
