It Happened One Night – 90th Anniversary

Opposites attract with magnetic force in this romantic road-trip delight from director Frank Capra (It's a Wonderful Life), about a spoiled runaway socialite and a roguish man-of-the-people reporter who is determined to get the scoop on her scandalous disappearance. Among the most gracefully constructed and edited films of the early sound era and featuring two actors at the top of their game, It Happened One Night is regularly cited as one of the greatest films of all time. –BFI
