“His Girl Friday”: Howard Hawks Softened A Political Satire Into A Proto-Feminist Romcom
"His Girl Friday" set the bar for romcoms and gave us a feminist heroine before feminism was cool.

Joana, a 30-year-old woman, returns to the rural settlement in Paraná where she spent her childhood to work as a teacher.
