Screwball komedisi

Screwball komedisi, Amerikalıların bulduğu bir komedi türüdür. Bu tür ABD'de yaşanan Büyük Buhran döneminde yani 1930'ların başından 1940'ların başına kadar popülerliğini korumuştur. Bu türün birçok ikincil özelliği film noir türüyle benzerlik gösterir ama film noir'dan farklı olarak erkek ana karakterle olan ilişkisinde kadın karakter baskın bir durumdadır.^[1]

^ Ken Dancyger, Jeff Rush (2006) Alternative Scriptwriting, Fourth edition, Chap. 7 Working with Genre I, The Screwball Comedy, pp.84-5 quotation:
The screwball comedy is funny film noir that has a happy ending... The premise of the film is about the struggle in their relationship. During the course of the struggle, which is highly sexually charged, the maleness of the central character is challenged. The female is the dominant character in the relationship. This role reversion is central to the screwball comedy.
