Screwball comedies absolutely own my heart. I've seen a lot but I'm always on the lookout for more. Would you mind listing your favourites here? Chances are I've seen them but just in case :) Here are my favourites:

Love Crazy (1941)
I Love You Again (1940) - I wish those two were more well-known, they're amongst my favourite movies of all time. The Thin Man also has elements of screwball comedy and I really love the series.
My Man Godfrey (1936)
His Girl Friday (1940)
Bringing Up Baby (1938)
It Happened One Night (1934)
The Awful Truth (1937)
Some Like It Hot (1959)
Libeled Lady (1936)
Hands Across the Table (1935)

Also, I'd be interested in finding more funny movies. I really love the Marx Brothers but I'm more for verbal comedy than physical. Do you have anything to recommend (besides I Love Lucy which I know well)?
