It Happened One Night Ratings & Reviews

  • KylachamJune 15, 2025
    Frank Capra doing what Frank Capra does best. A really sweet romance, in which Gable gets to showcase his effectiveness with both comedy and suavity. Though the plot is light the character-driven interactions make for a very pleasant movie experience.
