Actresses of the 1930s and 40s - like Rosalind Russell, Katharine Hepburn, and Myrna Loy - are remembered for roles and performances that were smart and sassy. Maria DiBattista, a professor of English and film studies at Princeton University, recalls the lively and sharp dialogue of the "screwball comedy" era in her new book.
