DVD Reviews of Bringing Up Baby (Two-Disc Special Edition)

DVD Review: Silly, Funny Stuff
Summary: 5 Stars

Cary Grant is hilarious as an awkward professor. He is matched in talent by a giddy, girly - and very pretty - Katherine Hepburn. The entire cast, underscored by a live leopard, is superb. The entire scenario is so ridiculous, one can't help but laugh.

DVD Review: Bringing Up Baby (Two-Disc Special Edition)
Summary: 4 Stars

If you like Katharine Hepburn & Cary Grant then you will like this old style comedy. Also the dog adds a little humor to the plot but it's good they didn't give him too big of a part.
The plot is a screwball one with Cary Grant trying to get money for the museum and then at the same time retrieve a dinosaur bone from the dog which has hidden it. Meanwhile Katharine Hepburn has decided to marry Cary Grant and does some screwball things to keep him from his wedding. They both always seem to be in sync with each other throughout the movie.
It may not have been a great box-office success, but it is a very good movie to watch and have a good laugh.

DVD Review: The greatest screwball comedy
Summary: 5 Stars

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.

DVD Review: Laughter is the best medicine and this is the pharmacy
Summary: 5 Stars

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.

DVD Review: Great seller and item
Summary: 5 Stars

Item arrived very quickly, sooner than expected, and was in excellent condition. Would order from this seller again!

"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
