Bringing Up Baby (Two-Disc Special Edition) description
"The love impulse in man," says a psychiatrist in Bringing Up Baby, "frequently reveals itself in terms of conflict." That's for sure. For a primer on the rules and regulations of the classic screwball comedy, which throws love and conflict into close proximity, look no further. A straight-laced paleontologist (Cary Grant) loses a dinosaur bone to a dog belonging to free-spirited heiress Katharine Hepburn. In trying to retrieve said bone, Grant is drawn into the vortex surrounding the delicious Hepburn, which becomes a flirtatious pas de deux that will transform both of them. Director Howard Hawks plays the complications as a breathless escalation of their "love impulse," yet the movie is nonetheless romantic for all its speed. (Hawks's His Girl Friday, also with Grant, goes even faster.) Grant and Hepburn are a match made in movie heaven, in sync with each other throughout. Not a great box-office success when first released, Bringing Up Baby has since taken its place as a high-water mark of the screwball form, and it was used as a model for Peter Bogdanovich's What's Up, Doc? --Robert Horton

Regardless Of What Others May Say......

My daughter and I are great fans of Cary Grant movies. She is only 18 and thankfully has great taste in regards to the golden age of Hollywood movie making and the actors from that time. Cary Grant is one of our favorite actors and we own, Arsenic and Old Lace, Charade, An Affair To Remember and The Bishop's Wife. We recently watched and enjoyed Holiday with Grant and Hepburn, I thought Grant was hilarious when he did his acrobatics. Also we have enjoyed watching in the last month Houseboat, the Philadelphia Story, and My Favorite Wife. So it is not said lightly when we say this movie was irritating. My daughter was home sick one day from school recently and I put this movie in for her(and me). (By the way the only medicine she was on was ibuprofen for the cynically minded)
About thirty minutes into the movie we turned it off. The rate at which Hepburn talks is incredible and irritating; though this is a true screwball comedy, I found that the intelligence level of Hepburn's and Grant's characters belittling of their caliper of an actor. Though Grant plays a scientist that is so engrossed in his work that he is innocent in his social graces, I thought he could have done more with his implied intelligence to stand up to Hepburn's character.
By writing this I realize I am the minority of opinion, but I will not let my high regard for Grant and Hepburn as actors be my only reason I like this movie. It is possible we will watch this again in the future, if so I may update our opinion of the movie.
