George Cukor's 1940 screwball classic has all the fixings of the perfect movie. From the Oscar-winning screenplay by Donald Ogden Stewart to the ultimate dream triumvirate of Cary Grant, Jimmy Stewart and Katharine Hepburn, <I>The Philadelphia Story</I> is a delightfully fast-talking, wise-cracking romp. The action centres on snarky socialite Tracy Lord's second marriage, and the chaos caused by members of her dysfunctional family when her ex-husband (Grant) reappears. Hepburn is at once hilarious and heartwarming in this gem of comedic filmmaking.
