Review of Man's Favorite Sport? (1964) by Bill B — 11 Jul 2012

Fun little Howard Hawks homage to his own classic screwball comedies, along the lines of "Bringing Up Baby". Rock Hudson is good as the fishing expert author who's never actually fished but is forced to compete in a fishing tournament.

Although Rock is certainly no Cary Grant, Paula Prentiss is terrific and actually does compare favorably to Katherine Hepburn as the mismatched wakly love interest. It's not a classic, but it's a funny charming little romantic comedy.
