“I’m a newspaperman!”: 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.
Mask
The film Mask aims to show the precious family relationships that are being lost today, the hypocritical people wearing masks, and the phenomenon that is increasingly common in today's society, where people forget their friends for the sake of money and fame, in a humorous and adventurous way.
