Perdonad las molestias, gracias.
La filmografía aún continúa abierta, seguramente sufrirá modificaciones con el tiempo, ya que mi idea ha sido desde el principio listar películas de las que hubiera enlaces para que la filmografía fuera útil, para que sirviera para descargarlas y verlas, no para comerse las ganas. He procurado encontrar enlaces para todas y, la verdad, es que ahora mismo no pondría ni más ni menos de las que están, ya veremos dentro de un mes. Por ahora, prácticamente todas las películas citadas pueden descargarse, he logrado mi objetivo en un 95%.
Supongo que para algunas personas habrá ausencias y para otras sobrarán películas. La decisión ha sido dura, con algunas he dudado mucho y algunas han quedado fuera y otras dentro; es una lista totalmente subjetiva y adaptada a mis opiniones sobre la screwball y sus rasgos. No es nada definitivo ni me considero una experta en este tipo de películas, pero el haber visto muchas me permite hacer una criba bastante ajustada.
Espero que os guste

UNO. Las screwball-comedies (en cristiano: comedias románticas alocadas) aparecieron en Hollywood a mediados de los años 30, en plena Gran Depresión, como una forma de escape a la difícil situación socioeconómica que vivía la Unión Americana. |
