97. Bringing Up Baby (1938)



This movie was too cute! I'm not sure that I've ever seen a movie with Katharine Hepburn. She's hilarious! Great comedic timing, and amazing ability at physical humor. I'm starting to notice a trend with the older movies (even though there's only been two... there's much more physical humor.

Bringing Up Baby was about a paleontologist (Cary Grant) and a socialite (Hepburn). Hepburn somehow gets a leopard as a pet, and the hijinks ensue. I was amazed at how they were able to use a real leopard in the movie, it was so well behaved! I thought leopards were dangerous and hard to control?

I'm not entirely sure why this is in the top 100, but it was pretty cute, and I enjoyed it enough to give it 4 stars.
