Bringing Up Baby

Cary Grant as a nebbish paleontologist, Katharine Hepburn as a scatterbrained socialite, and a runaway leopard (or two!) collide in this beloved screwball classic. Bringing Up Baby’s artful balance of slapstick, spectacle, lightning-quick wit, and overlapping dialogue is a virtual clinic in classical Hollywood style. Sweet, silly, and a little bit strange, this cinematic confection makes for a perfect Valentine’s Day date.
