The list is compiled from domino harvey's post on criterionforum (as identified by Duane Byrge and Robert Milton Miller in The Screwball Comedy Films: A History and Filmography, 1934-1942) and the wikipedia page of Screwball comedy.

Screwball comedy is a film subgenre of the romantic comedy genre that became popular during the Great Depression, beginning in the early 1930s and thriving until the early 1950s, that satirizes the traditional love story. It has secondary characteristics similar to film noir, distinguished by a female character who dominates the relationship with the male central character, whose masculinity is challenged, and the two engage in a humorous battle of the sexes.
