Howard Hawks delivered the best screwball comedy ever made (in my opinion) with Bringing Up Baby. The film has been very underrated until recently (except for France where I think Truffaut and others brought light to it), but now has been given a spotlight that I think is much deserved. The absurdities in this film are so well dealt with by Hawks, that I cannot help but be captured every time I am able to see it. Absolutely genius.

If I were to make a list of the best comedy films of all time, "Bringing Up Baby" would be #1 on the list. Followed by "Arsnic And Old
Lace" and "Way Out West".
This is a perfect example of the screwball comedies of the late 30s and early 40s.
Grant makes a perfect straight man for Hepburn`s character. Other reviews blow by blow details of the film, I`ll just say that if
laughter really is the best medicine, this should cure just about anything.

Bringing Up Baby- The best screwball comedy of all time! I wrote a speech on this movie this summer and it earned me an A. I felt that earned me the right to finally purchase one of my favorite movies. If you haven't seen it yet, it's high time you see it. It is definitely worth it!

Katharine Hepburn is extremely annoying in this movie. The plot seems to come from nowhere. Overall bad movie... it gets better toward the end though... still a VERY stupid movie.

Editorial Review:
Product Description:
All the earnest paleontoligist (Cary Grant) wants is an intercostal clavicle to complete his brontosaurus skeleton. What he gets is an out-of-control toboggan ride with a scatterbrained heiress (Katharine Hepburn) nuts about him (or maybe just nuts). Riding along are a dog named George a leopard named Baby a snooty society matron with a spare million a caretaker on the sauce and more. In this giddy romp directed by Howard Hawks Grant ends up in a negligee Hepburn ends up in a bottomless evening gown everyone ends up in jail and Bringing Up Baby ends up as the most glorious laughter-inducing movie ever!Running Time: 102 min.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: COMEDY UPC: 053939640724
Amazon.com essential video:
"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
