The perfect Valentine's Day treat starring two great lovers of the screen, "It Happened One Night" was the first-ever film to capture ALL FIVE major Academy Awards (Best Picture, Director, Actor, Actress, and Screenplay)--a feat only two films since have achieved. Also the first romantic screwball comedy, it spawned a whole film genre that is still wildly popular today. A spoiled heiress, running away from her family, is helped by a man who's actually a reporter looking for a story. But can he escape the bonds of love long enough to actually finish his story? And meanwhile, will the heiress return to her suitor or marry the lowly reporter? Check the paper's social column to find out...
