... that the quality of Bruce Edwards's repartee with his co-star in the 1947 film serial The Black Widow has been compared to the verbal sparring of Cary Grant and Rosalind Russell in His Girl Friday? Source: "the distinctive quality of The Black Widow emanates from the quality of the dialogue, especially the playfully antagonistic relationship between Colt and Winters, in the manner of the Cary Grant/Rosalind Russell verbal duels in His Girl Friday (1940). In these scenes Edwards is extremely good exchanging sarcastic ripostes with Lindley although he is less convincing as an action hero." (Encyclopedia of American Film Serials)

New article is 3,092 characters long and nominated one day after first expansion. No copyvios detected and duplication detector [1][2] reveal no close paraphrasing issues (AGF books and article scans which can't go through Dup detector). Article is well-sourced. Hook is 197 characters long (under 200 character max.) and is interesting. Ref 3 (verifying the hook) is a reliable source published by McFarland. QPQ done. Looks good to go! —Bloom6132 (talk) 11:04, 26 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
