Bringing Up Baby

Howard Hawks directed this comedy starring Cary Grant and Katharine Hepburn.

One of the best movie comedies ever.

Grant plays a nerdy professor who is drawn into the life of a wacky heiress who changes him forever. A totally screwball comedy if there ever was one.

Grant and Hepburn are wonderful together. Lots of abusrd situations but it all works. The stars shine in this one.

Remade (sort of) as "What's Up Doc?" with Ryan O'Neal and Barbara Streisand.

Don't miss this one.

Twentieth Century

Love those screwball comedies...from His Girl Friday to Bringing Up Baby. But this one could be the grandaddy of them all.

Made in 1934 and directed by Howard Hawks, Twentieth Century stars John Barrymore at his funniest and Carole Lombard who matches him laugh for laugh.

Broadway producer with an ego the size of New York turns shopgirl Lombard into a star but when she decides to leave him, he tries every trick in the book to win her back. He has plenty of time, as they travel across country on a train called the Twentieth Century.

Taken from the original Broadway play, this returned to Broadway some time ago as a musical called On the Twentieth Century.

Played for laughs, it provides more than enough.
