1940 - B & W - Comedy/Romance - Starring Cary Grant, Katherine Hepburn, James Stewart, & John Howard - Directed by George Cuckor
C.K. Dexter Haven (Cary Grant) hires a tabloid writer & photographer to visit his ex wife Tracy just before she is to be married to her current beau. This happens 2 years after Tracy kicked Haven out. What ensues is a quirky love triangle filled with jealously and lots of booze. Tracy must decide who she wants to marry as the wedding is about to commence.
My Review:
This is a true gem. The cast is excellent as they work so well together in bringing this story to life. Grant and Stewart are 2 of my favorites, and seeing them on screen together in this is a work of true comedic art. My favorite part of this movie is when an inebriated Stewart pays a visit to Grant's place and attempts to carry on a conversation. This is a lol moment, but not the only one. Katherine Hepburn is masterful, and a beauty as well. She makes the love triangle so good, that you really don't know who she will choose. I give this 5 stars for the great cast chemistry, classic laugh out loud moments, and the fact that movies are not made this way anymore.
