It Happened One Night

This classic romantic comedy, directed by Frank Capra, follows the story of a spoiled heiress who runs away from her family and ends up being helped by a charming but out-of-work reporter. Starring Clark Gable and Claudette Colbert, the film is celebrated for its witty dialogue and engaging chemistry between the leads. It became the first film to win all five major Academy Awards: Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Actress, and Best Adapted Screenplay.
