The Taipei Golden Horse Film Festival Executive Committee has launched three annual events since 2018: the Golden Horse Fantastic Film Festival (GHFFF) in April, the Golden Horse Classic Film Festival (GHCFF) in July&August, and the Taipei Golden Horse Film Festival (TGHFF) in November.
【Golden Horse Classic Film Festival: Screwball Comedy (GHCFF)】
2025 GHCFF will take place from July 18th to August 7th.
2025 Golden Horse Classic Film Festival will proudly present "Screwball Comedy: Love at First Fight", a fresh angle to examine cinematic arts, apart from film directors, nations, movements and stars. It is also the first time for filmmaker Ang Lee to take part in curation.
The Mandarin translations of Screwball Comedy come with varied tastes: wacky, neurotic, or absurd. They all express certain quality of this movie genre, which features precise performing rhythm and witty dialogues, drifting about elegance, sophistication, nuttiness and rebellion, and it also brings about sharp examinations on society and love. The Festival will introduce 30 remarkable films made between 1932 to 1952, which is also the era when this genre is most creative and dynamic.
In addition to the first-ever "Grand Slam" movie in the Academy Awards' history It Happened One Night, there will be films made by renowned directors like Frank Capra, Howard Hawks, Ernst Lubitsch, Preston Sturges and George Cukor; featuring all-time movie stars like Cary Grant, Clark Gable, Carole Lombard, Claudette Colbert, Spencer Tracy, Katharine Hepburn, James Stewart, Gary Cooper and Barbara Stanwyck.
Come enjoy the performances delivered by these beautiful people, with sarcastic humor and sparks, all in one place only on big screen.
