It Happened One Night (1934) Feb 28, 2019

Show notes

For our debut episode of a bonus series we're calling Extra Milestone, Sam Noland joins us as we celebrate the 85th anniversary of Frank Capra's It Happened One Night, which was released on February 22, 1934 and stars Clark Gable and Claudette Colbert. Largely hailed as the first screwball comedy and an early precursor to the modern rom-com, this is one film you'll definitely want to cross off your cinematic bucket list, or perhaps revisit.

Intro music composed by Howard Jackson and Louis Silvers.
