Ben Hecht and Charles MacArthur adapted their Broadway play of the same name – itself based on the unproduced play" Napoleon of Broadway" by Charles Bruce Millholland – with uncredited contributions from Gene Fowler and Preston Sturges.
Along with Frank Capra's" It Happened One Night", also released in 1934( which coincidentally has the same music over the opening titles)," Twentieth Century" is considered to be a prototype for the screwball comedy.
" Howard Hawks' rapid- fire romantic comedy established the essential ingredients of the" screwball" – a dizzy dame, a charming, but befuddled, hero, dazzling dialogue, and a dash of slapstick."
Its success propelled Lombard into the front ranks of film comediennes.
The film was added to the National Film Registry of the Library of Congress in 2011.
