These are Dad's film previews for the
Screwball Comedy sub-genre. Enjoy!
Screwball Comed films are often a
subgenre of romantic comedy film that flourished in the
1930s and 1940s. It is defined by rapid-fire, witty
dialogue, a fierce battle of the sexes, eccentric
characters, and farcical situations. These films famously
featured assertive female leads, class conflict,
fish-out-of-water situations and a clever subversion of
traditional gender roles. |
