Witty and brash, the fast-talking dames in film comedies of the 1930s and 1940s offered moviegoers a new, independent version of American womanhood. In this volume, Maria DiBattista paints portraits of the grandest fast-talking dames of the era, including Katharine Hepburn, Irene Dunne and Barbara Stanwyck, and discusses what their films had to say about men, happiness and the power of speech.
