Interesting remix of "His Girl Friday"


His Girl Friday is a classic screwball comedy of the 1940s. I've always enjoyed it because of the rapid-fire and witty repartee between the Rosalind Russell and Cary Grant characters. So I was startled to find this remix in which all scenes with dialogue have been deleted:
A radically shortened version... - all the action without the dialogue - hard cuts for sound and picture only - strictly in chronological order - Produced by Valentin Spirik - Public domain footage from archive.org
Try it for a few minutes; even if you don't know the original, the result is interesting. If you want to see the entire movie, it's available free online AT THIS LINK.
