      A classic screwball comedy neuro comedy

      In the history of American film, "Bringing Up Baby" has a peculiar process of becoming famous. When it was released that year, the film failed to win the favor of the audience, and the box office was unfortunately lost. As a result, director Howard Hawks was fired by Raidenhua. In order to avoid having a negative impact on her reputation, Katharine Hepburn paid compensation to terminate the contract with Raidenhua, thus avoiding appearing in the company's next film "Mother...

      I really want to strangle the heroine and make her shut up!

      This idea came up halfway through

      the movie ... I ca n’t see the outstanding features of this movie at all. Although it is more than just boldly saying "I can make 100 of this kind of movie", but the plot of this movie It's too bad.

      I haven't seen a funny and humorous movie, and I haven't seen a beautiful and cute heroine, but this one in the movie is really not cute, even me, a kind-hearted person. It's time to show the ugly side of human nature. I

      really don't...

      This is a comedy

      The person I fell in love with recently, his favorite actress is Katharine Hepburn, and his favorite movie is Bringing up Baby. I watched this movie today.

      There is no doubt that it is a great movie! First, as an absurd comedy, it is absurd and funny; then the celebrity is cute and cute enough, and the beloved queen Katharine also has such a charming look, and the voice is still awkward (!); then the plot is compact and full of tension. , The editing is compact but there is no extra...

      Bringing Up Baby (1938)

      This is another translation that has nothing to do with the plot movie of. "Nursing Story"? Damn it, there is no baby-related plot in the movie. The "Baby" in the English name refers to the jaguar that has always been called Baby. It...

      Lively Qi Tan

      Indeed, as stated in the synopsis, this drama is absurd! The leopard actually came out, and it is also an "important role" to promote the development of the plot.
          At first, I didn’t understand the relationship between this play and parenting. I saw the original name in English and found out "Bringing Up Baby", and "Baby" is the name of the little leopard, that's it!
          Unexpectedly, Catherine Hepburn starred in such a "nonsense" wealthy daughter. In this film, Gary Grant also...
