Bringing Up Baby (1938)

It’s the mother of all screwball comedies…that’s right, we’re covering Bringing Up Baby (1938)! In celebration of Katharine Hepburn’s 117th birthday, we cover this classic romantic funny flick starring fabulous leading lady Katharine and one-of-a-kind leading man Cary Grant. With our guest host Colin Campbell, we break down the art of the screwball comedy and walk through our favorite laugh-out-loud scenes of this tale about a flighty heiress roping in a high-strung paleontologist to care for her pet leopard, Baby, while he attempts to secure a $1 million donation for his museum from her rich aunt. This beloved Howard Hawks film has inspired endless films through today and we are thrilled to finally give it its chance to shine! Huge special thank you again to Colin for sharing your wonderful insights! Can’t wait to have you on again :)
