Bringing Up Baby

Bringing Up Baby, with Katherine Hepburn and Cary Grant, is the ideal "screwball comedy".  A film from the era of the Great Depression, this film is filled with comedy that will transcend all generations.  This sub-genre within comedy was created with the purpose of helping people to forget the financial troubles prevalent during that time, something that people today can greatly sympathize with.  This story is aborably ridiculous and has the ability to make anyone briefly forget their troubles...   and even forget that Hepburn's character is an A-grade bimbo.  In no other movie could that portrayal of a woman be excusable, so the comedy must be great!


RATING:

V - 3
A - 6
S - 8
A - 6
E - 8

Total = 31/50
