Bringing Up Baby
After last year's yuletide screening of
Meet Me in St Louis, our next cinema classic for kids is full of joyous screwball humour.
Katharine Hepburn stars in this inspired comedy about a madcap heiress with a pet leopard who meets an absent-minded palaeontologist (Cary Grant) and unwittingly makes a fiasco of both their lives.
".the real reason to watch
[Bringing Up] Baby with your children us that it's a wonderful introduction to Grant and, especially, the great Kate. Hepburn is not just maddeningly funny here but possessed of an otherworldly enchantment - a couple of times she uncorks a quicksilver laugh that can give you goose bumps."
