Description
BBC R4 - Ben Hecht And Charles Mcarthur's 'The Front Page'
Adapted by John Fletcher
Produced by Foz Allan
Broadcast February 14, 1998
Coded from tape at 128/44.1

Hecht & Mcarthur's very funny play about crime and corruption seen
through the eyes of 1920s' Chicago yellow journalism.

This is a good production. It's sharp and biting like the stage play - and
not softened as the movies made from it were. And better in some ways
than a stage production, which would have trouble accommodating the
driving music and readings from Hearst's newspapers.

This is well up there with the best of the BBC's dramatic output.
