His Girl Friday

His Girl Friday was a good movie for the time period. Movies at this time were restricted by laws and this movie was able to be entertaining regardless of this. The movie was short and faced paced with the dialogue so even if someone didn't love the movie they would probably not be completely bored with it. The fast dialodue made me want to pay attention because there is no time to look away from the screen. The plot took hold within ten minutes of the movie and the entire movie was only a little over 90 minutes. This made it bearable to watch because it probably would have been boring if there wasn't so much of the plot unfolding so fast.

The acting in this movie was amazing from all the actors especially Bruce and Walter. Walter played a smart guy and he knew how to manipulate people to get what he wanted. He was fun to watch because he counteracted with Bruce and his naive stupidness. Bruce was funny to watch because he was such a nice guy and the whole time Walter was trying to ruin his marriage. Walter talked at a slow pace and countered with Bruce this was noticeable. Another funny character was the fat guy who couldn't stop mentioning his wife. His personality was hillarius to watch and the two scenes with his in it were the funniest two scenes in the movie. This movie didn't seem very romantic but it was a funny movie nonetheless for its time period.
