Born Yesterday
Judy Holliday is so infectiously funny with her ditzy line-delivery and high-pitched voice.
Born Yesterday
"Would you do me a favor, Harry? Drop dead!" - iconic! I think Judy Holliday's performance won me over as soon as she started playing music; her facial expressions and comedic timing are superb and make this film rise above mediocrity! Paul being given two minutes to think things over - sitting on the couch facing the man in front of him, and slowly moving his head in a mechanical fashion to look at the other two, and then speaking - poetic cinema. The only thing I didn't like is, that it drags a bit at times, and Harry's constant yelling gets very annoying.
