Storyline:
Having been away for four months, Hildy Johnson walks into the offices of the New York City based The Morning Post, where she is a star reporter, to tell her boss, editor Walter Burns, that she is quitting. The reason for her absence was among other things to get a Reno divorce, from, of all people, Walter, who admits he was a bad husband. Hildy divorced Walter largely because she wanted more of a home life, whereas Walter saw her more as a driven hard-boiled reporter than subservient homemaker. Hildy has also come to tell Walter that she is taking the afternoon train to Albany, where she will be getting married tomorrow to staid straight-laced insurance agent, Bruce Baldwin, with whose mother they will live, at least for the first year.
Walter doesn't want to lose Hildy, either as a reporter or a wife, and if he does, doesn't believe Bruce is worthy of her. Walter does whatever he can at least to delay Hildy and Bruce's trip, long enough to persuade Hildy to stay for good. His plan includes doing whatever he can to place Bruce in a bad light, while dangling a big story under her nose, namely covering what the newspaper believes is the unfair imminent execution of convicted cop killer, Earl Williams. Hildy doesn't trust Walter in dealing with her and Bruce in an above board manner, but the lure of what potentially may become the biggest story in years, which includes true love, a bumbling sheriff and a corrupt mayor, the latter's actions largely in light of an upcoming election, may prove to be too much for Hildy to resist, especially if it ends up being an exclusive. Regardless of the story outcome, Hildy will have to decide if the thrill of the chase was worth the anguish on her personal life.

Rosalind Russell was another absolute beauty from the past, stunning ❤❤
By far the best version of The Front Page.
I love this movie and just adore Roz Russell 🧡 every time I see her I automatically think of Auntie Mame
One of the great classics of on-screen comedy, and still a relevant satire on the news media to this day! An unbeatable film.
Cary on this movie is just gorgeous..phenomenal, amazing..unique, in all imaginable ways! He should have won at least 3 Oscars!
The shear speed of dialogue will wipe anybody out! At the end of the movie look at Rosalind Russel at the desk.....she's not crying...she's worn out from all the action! Great movie...Great writing...A definite challenge for all the actors and director...especially so in today's world if performed in Playhouses all across the country
after a thoroughly lousy day, this light hearted movie is what i needed to see.
The best writing I've heard in a long while.
One brilliant line after the next at warp speed. Charles Ledderer wrote the screenplay. My absolute favorite screwball comedy. Howard Hawks best.
"This woman says Earl Williams is hiding under her piazza."
"Well, tell her to stand up."
It's obvious even the sensors couldn't keep up with this dialogue.
The greatest dialog of all time!
Nice to be reminded what great dialogue sounds like- and the performances are stellar
John: this movie is so quick witted and fast talking, even woody allen couldn't compete to make movies like this, even this adaptation of a play.
This movie is so funny. Love Cary Grant movies. The ultimate man 🥰
Love the reference to Ralph Bellamy by name in the script when Grant was telling the saucy lady who to look for in cab..!
I have loved this movie since I was a teen, and it was an oldie even then!
The brilliance of the dialogue and the way it’s delivered by the actors is perfection.
One of the funniest movies with stellar star cast !
I've seen this classic chestnut about a dozen times and never fail to savor its rapid fire wit - especially from the inimitable Russell!
Great color job! Made me notice things I'd not spotted before--
Russel's hat is a scream.
The bridge of Grant's nose is slightly bowed.
THANKS for up-loading this wonderful movie !!! Lots of love to everyone reading this, from Germany, Astrid Eta Anja
One of my favorite Rosalind Russell movies...add in Gary Grant & Ralph Belamy, directed by that genius Howard Hawks..& you got a timeless Hit! This color edition adds a dash of modern to the mix!
Great job colorizing this. Fantastic!!
Rosalind Russell & Cary Grant..yes!! As good a comedic pair as Irene Dunne & Carey Grant in ‘My Favorite Wife’ or ‘The Awful Truth’
What a gem!!!!! made in 1940 !!!! compare it with today's rubbish !!!!
I watched a similar movie called Switching Channels released in 1988 with Kathleen Turner, Christopher Reeves and Burt Reynolds it must be a remake of this movie.
@@josemedeiros007 The Front Page with Jack Lemon and Walter Matthau is also a remake. It's all based on a 1928 play. This is the best version though; Fantastic script.
The only good movie made recently is LOTR'
One of my favorites
My favourite movie of all time.
I enjoyed this very much, A Classic.
The director insisted that his actors deliver dialogue at 120 wpm or faster and I love how the zingers hit, fastball.
Anyone notice Cary saying " Archie Leach" cut his throat? He didn't even smile when he said his real name!
Thank you for uploading this movie.
Such a crime to think that people today, in 2025, will never experience the black & white masterpiece Howard Hawks created. It’s like taking a Rembrandt and adding fresh color, because they are too dark. Insane.
No actors today could act at the wise Crack pace. Pure Gold.
One of my favourite all time flicks BUT I think I will stick to it in glorious black and white.
So will I. It looks much better in black and white...
Rosalind Russell's face kept switching from pink to gray all through the second half.
Excellent movie!
Thank you for the Movies, !!!
Good dìalogues great film great cary grant and Rosalind Russel
Love colorized movies. They did Ted Turner an injustice when they took down his colorized classics. It brings everything to life. People act like the people back then lived their lives in black and white
This movie is pretty good about the colorizing. I notice the early colorizing seems to have the colors bouncing back and forth outside of the lines that they're supposed to be in. When that happens I prefer to watch the black and white if I can find it. I have an art degree so it's a matter of when the color is put somewhere it's got to stay there.😂
There's colorizing, and then there's Ted Turner colorizing. Maybe you liked them, but they did everyone else a favor by taking those day glo movies down.
lol as a kid i really believed that my parent’s generation & before DID live in b&w - like all of their pictures & movies! i remember feeling really sad for them especially since my ‘70’s generation was so BEAUTIFUL! 🌈💕Anyway. i know it’s irrational but colorized versions comfort me & make me happy. And here we are. 🤟🏼🕊️
I prefer black and white ✌️
No offense my friend ✌️
I love this film,but I have the black and white version,I think it’s better
Whoa, those colours will make you blind. :-)
I generally want to see the movie as originally made, but I'll watch this movie over & over! It does make an important point about journalism and corrupt government. Great story & great acting. Originally a play, I believe, on Broadway, called The Front Page, 1928. The original play is far superior to this movie.
I think they slowed down the audio. I remember when I watched long time ago I could hardly keep up with tge rapid speech
Archie Leach was Cary Grants real name. He makes reference to it at 1:23:50
I caught that too!
He improvised a lot during the shooting.
I would prefer it in the original black and white
I totally agree. Directors like Hawks used lighting to create tones and shadows that are lost when colorized.
Gosto muito de filmes colorizados podemos ver melhor nossos artista favoriros só é melhor idioma original com legendas diversas❤
He will lose that check if he puts it in his hat. That's not a good idea.
There is bits missing from this, a few seconds or so at a time.
Colorizing just doesn’t seem necessary to me. Black and white is relaxing.
I don't mind the colorization of this great movie but sometimes the characters' hands are the same color as their clothing.
Yes, noticed the hands too
Just a great movie! Are there different versions or have I got this one mixed up with another and if so which one? I was thinking of an ending where Cary Grant tried to make it up to Bruce and gave him his watch, saying it was the only thing he could give to try to make up for all the fuss. When Bruce and Hildy have left on the train he calls the railroad and asks them to stop the train at the first possible station and arrest the thief that stole his watch! 🙂
Which movie is that if not this one?
"I can't plead insanity. I'm just as insane as everyone else." Said 60 years too early, or prophetic?
What on earth , how did she get white flat shoes on at 1:03:00 ? she was wearing black high heels a second before .
How is it that the characters often are so grey?
Should be able to appreciate it in its original format when listening to the dialogue was more important
Still can.
I love colorized movies. It enhances the actors. Their work I tolerate bw movies if it's a classic. Most bw movies give a stick figure vibe.
GREAT movie with just mediocre colorization.
1:03:00 Ohps, there‘s a mistake! Watch Hildy‘s shoes…😃
I always wonder if the food they served on the set were decent , warm and delicious , specially when they are fine dining 😊
A lot of fun spotting Howard Hawks movie mistakes and Easter eggs - some are pretty obvious. In this one, Cary Grant says "That's what Archie Leach said before he cut his throat." A lot of goofs are in the cuts and continuity. For instance 39 minutes in, when Rosalind Russell enters a room and opens the same door twice. Some of the funniest goofs are John Wayne's hat in Rio Bravo. And in the same movie, Bing Russell (Kirk's father) comes back from the dead.
The philadelphia story colorized please
Been waiting for the one too. So many way lesser movies have been colorized.
Noooo.
Good movie, I watched a similar movie called Switching Channels released in 1988 with Kathleen Turner, Christopher Reeves, and Burt Reynolds, it must be a remake of this movie.
Continuity?
At 1 hour exactly, the
gun was dropped on the
table...
I didn't see anyone
move it from there...
Will look again....😁
🇬🇧💕🇺🇲☺️🇬🇧🦉
Rosalind was so beautiful
La musica del inicio se parece a la banda sonora de tom y jerry de los años 40. De hechoe estoy seguro que es esa.
I know this movie too well to not know when you cut stuff out. Thumbs Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay Down.
The colorization is really horrific. Color oozes in and out of people like some kind of insane taxidermy experiment.
❤❤🎉🎉🎉الله يرحم هذه الاجيال
💀💀💀💀💀🤦🏻♀️
???
15 min's : Look at all
the studio lights reflected
in the glasses on the table☺️.
🇬🇧💕🇺🇲☺️🥀🦉🇬🇧
👏👏👏👏👏
trying to guess the year by how young Cary Grant looks and what fashions are in the newsroom on the ladies! from Rosalinds comment about Hitler it seems to be the late thirties?
In the description it says 1940.
Well, before US joined the war, that's for sure.
This coloration fades into goulful gray then back into human skin color 25 times a minute
I don't really understand all the good reviews. The colorization was very poorly done, with grey constantly asserting itself, there was some choppy editing , and they kept flashing their logo across the screen. Very sad to see done to such a fantastic movie.
Admittedly, the colorization of this film is not perfect. Many people would think so. However, if engineers worked on each frame one by one as before, it would take a huge amount of time and money. You won't get your money's worth unless you sell expensive software. In my personal opinion, if you can watch it for free, even if it's incomplete, automatic colorization by AI is enough.

Oo... pink smoke
❤
I guess it makes for comedy but a slick newsman guy lying and scheming...well, it is exactly like happens now
האם קשה לשים תרגום?
I refuse to watch a colourised movie.😠
So the machiavellian editor ruins a marriage and wins the girl over in the end through manipulation, pretty screwed up honestly
A total mismatch..Carry perfect.
Coloured and using telephone...in 1940's
الترجمة بالعربي تتكر مرتين شيء مزعج
🤠😘🥰
Wonderful movie....yet I dislike the movie because of the horrible colorization...
There are few issues in the area of film preservation that arouse more anger than the issue of colorization. That is because it is an issue involving taste, and, to put it bluntly, anyone who can accept the idea of the colorization of black and white films has bad taste. The issue involved is so clear, and the artistic sin of colorization is so fundamentally wrong, that colorization provides a pass-fail examination. If you "like" colorized movies, it is doubtful that you know why movies are made, or why you watch them. 1. Black and white is a legitimate and beautiful artistic choice in motion pictures, creating feelings and effects that cannot be obtained any other way.
2. "Colorization" does not produce color movies, but only sad and sickening travesties of black and white movies, their lighting destroyed, their atmospheres polluted, their moods altered almost at random by the addition of an artificial layer of coloring that is little more than legalized vandalism. Roger Ebert

Colorizing defaces Art.
No reason to colorize. It is not an improvement.
Yes,no one believed me, he cannot come to earth, but he is here
1940/////
Jesus died on the cross for the whole world to save the whole world through condemnation accept Christ as your lord and savior or you cannot enter the kingdom of
World Lord❤
Christian myths and legends.
Horrible color sorry I’m old school n that why I have the app Watch TCM TCM like it used to be when it first aired
Yeah I prefer the black and white myself I feel like it brings the atmosphere of the movies more
Grant played a very obnoxious character. It took away from the movie for me. Didn't really enjoy it because of him.
But of course..that's the character he had to play!
He was a superb actor...exactly because he could play completely different roles..
You are brainwashed. It's just a comedy. Relaxe and stop be an activist for these 1,5 hours.
Cary Grant played a horrible person. He was loud and obnoxious in every scene he appeared in.
Well, you can always cancel him😂😂😂😂
why does American culture resemble a commercial?
Hate colourizing.
Oh, what a waste of Carry Grant in this film. With an actress whose voice is atrocious. I will not watch any further : I reached 7:20 minutes. Done.
本片的最后1分钟在哪儿？where is the last minute?the Runtime of this movie should be 1 h 32 mins
