On this episode of Public Domain Theater, Casey and Matt discuss the classic screwball comedy. Topics include sexual dynamics of the 40s, Auteur Theory (of course), and how much the press has changed over time. If you love romcoms, you’ll appreciate the His Girl Friday with us.
Since YouTube has caused our stream problem, we might just post directly to Substack from now on. If you want to keep watching these, you should subscribe!

Casey and I thought it would be fun to live-stream classic movies while commenting on the art and history of said movies. We created Public Domain Theater specifically because movies in the public domain wouldn’t violate YouTube’s copyright policy.
