Screwball sparks fly when Cary Grant and Katharine Hepburn let free in one of the most quickest and funniest movies ever made—a high-wire act of invention that took American display screen comedy to new heights of absurdity. Hoping to acquire a million-dollar endowment from a rich society matron for his museum, a hapless paleontologist (Grant) unearths himself entangled with a dizzy heiress (Hepburn) because the manic misadventures pile up—a lacking dinosaur bone, a leopard at the free, and a number of gender-bending mayhem amongst them. Bringing Up Child’s subtle discussion, spontaneous performances, and giddy innuendo come in combination in a whirlwind of comedian chaos captured with lightning-in-a-bottle brio by way of director Howard Hawks.
