Description:
Katharine Hepburn reprises her triumphant Broadway role as a spoiled heir on the verge of marrying a snoot...but not if her ex-hubby (Cary Grant) and smitten reporter (James Stewart) can help it!
Amazon.com essential video:
Re-creating the role she originated in Philip Barry's wickedly witty Broadway play, Katharine Hepburn stars as the spoiled and snobby socialite Tracy Lord in this sparkling 1940 screen adaptation of The Philadelphia Story, one of the great romantic comedies from the golden age of MGM studios. Applying her impossibly high ideals to everyone but herself, Tracy is about to marry a stuffy executive when her congenial ex-husband (Cary Grant), arrives to protect his former father-in-law from a potentially scandalous tabloid exposé. In an Oscar-winning role, James Stewart is the scandal reporter who falls for Tracy as her wedding day arrives, throwing her into a dizzying state of premarital jitters. Who will join Tracy at the altar? Snappy dialogue flows like sparkling wine under the sophisticated direction of George Cukor in this film that turned the tide of Hepburn's career from "box-office poison" to glamorous Hollywood star. --Jeff Shannon

The Great Depression, some things never change. The rich are evil and the poor are sainted. Tracy Lord, the unfortunate name of a recent adult film star, she is kind of a glorious snot ; she'll marry a Nuevo-riche piker to get even with her suave but drunken ex-husband, Cary Grant.
Grant is Cary Grant, but Stewart, a newcomer, holds his own as the young writer skittish about rich folks and women. His long-suffering girlfriend, charming, Ruth Hussey, stands by demurely.

I just watched this again and I simply must advertise my opinion on the whole of it. It's just that it was "almost" there. The classic screwball pairings of Katherine Hepburn and Cary Grant are legendary, but this one was in need of a good rewrite. If you are in a sentimental mood and you have recently viewed your entire collection of 1934-1944ish screwball comedies, then you can't go too far off of the path with this offering, but...
Okay, so let's start at the beginning (not the beginning ... Read More

This is a great classic movie with three of the original movie stars, Jimmy Stewart, Catherine Hepburn, and last but certainly not lest, Cary Grant. The writing is flawless and witty. There is a hidden pearl in the movie in the form of the little sister.

This 1940s film is supposed to be a classic. That's why it interested me. Originally adapted from a play, it stars Katherine Hepburn as a Philadelphia "main line" self-absorbed young woman. Recently divorced from Cary Grant, she is planning a marriage to someone else. But with the help of James Stuart and Ruth Hussy, Cary Grant sets about winning back his lady love.
My recollections of Katherine Hepburn are as an old lady, so it was a delight to see her young and gorgeous self. The role ... Read More
