Review of Bringing Up Baby (1938) by Monny M — 04 Mar 2017

Hepburn and Grant are every bit as great as their legacy says in this wonderfully and hilariously absurd escapist comedy. Of course the endless screwball patter and clever slapstick works, but it's all so quietly graceful underneath its chaotic exterior.

Stars hang from falling scaffolding, actors work closely with dangerous animals, political correctness is pushed aside...quite simply, this is the kind of comedy you can't make anymore, and that's truly a shame.
