The Philadelphia Story

John Landis on “The Philadelphia Story”

Jan 27, 2012
Trailer 689 of 689

Another great Cary Grant performance was overshadowed somewhat by the Oscar win of co-star James Stewart, which was widely viewed as a consolation prize for his losing the award for Mr. Smith Goes to Washington. Grant and Katharine Hepburn had previously teamed in author Philip Barry and director George Cukor's earlier Holiday, a sort of dry run for this immensely amusing comedy of manners.

Sorry, but THE greatest TV theme song in my opinion ends in a 3 way tie. Hawaii Five-O, SWAT & The Jetsons.

HA! Sounds to me like John ran out of stuff to say about the trailer!.

I do enjoy this film, even if Hepburn having to be disgraced in order to become "a real woman" is a bit troubling. Still, great performances all around, and some nice clever dialogue...

Another film that I wish I could love, but can't, because Katharine Hepburn's character is so damn unlikable, which is weird, because she's one of my favorite performers. No matter how humbled she becomes, the dialogue just rings hollow to me...

The remake, though starring talented Anthony Michael Hall and gorgeous Justine Bateman, wasn´t half the strong social saire as the original..
