Bringing Up Baby (1938)

Bringing Up Baby (1938) is a classic screwball comedy directed by Howard Hawks, starring Katharine Hepburn and Cary Grant. The film follows the misadventures of Dr. David Huxley (Cary Grant), a mild-mannered paleontologist, who is trying to secure a donation for his museum while also finishing a years-long project involving the assembly of a brontosaurus skeleton. His life is turned upside down when he meets Susan Vance (Katharine Hepburn), a free-spirited and eccentric heiress, who immediately takes a liking to him. Susan’s pet leopard, Baby, adds to the chaos as she ropes David into a series of hilarious and increasingly ridiculous situations.

Over the course of the film, Susan’s relentless pursuit of David, combined with a series of misunderstandings, causes him to miss important appointments and leads to trouble with both his fiancée and his professional life. As David is dragged from one crazy scenario to another, including chasing after Baby and trying to avoid the law, the two gradually begin to fall for each other. Bringing Up Baby is celebrated for its fast-paced dialogue, comedic timing, and the dynamic chemistry between Hepburn and Grant, making it a defining film of the screwball comedy genre.
