We shoulda done this episode in our Katharine Hepburn voices, ‘cause we’re talking as fast as we can to keep up with Howard Hawks over here! Wendy Mays of the Pet Cinematary podcast (#LadyPodSquad) joins us for a conversation about the 1938 classic screwball comedy Bringing Up Baby, starring Hepburn and Cary Grant and directed by Howard Hawks. Listen in as we attempt to explain (and remember) this crazy plot, tell silly stories from the set, and dive into Hepburn’s role as one of the earliest Manic Pixie Dream Girls in cinema.
Is Baby a human baby? (Nope.) Do Luke and Lorelai have a Grant and Hepburn dynamic? (Yep.) Would Kyla, Taylor, and Wendy like to hang out with a leopard? (Debatable.) You’ll never know if you don’t listen in—feel free to turn it up to 1.5 speed to make us sound like Hepburn!
Other pop culture we ref: Glitter, The Thin Man, The Shining, Elizabethtown, Breakfast at Tiffany’s, (500) Days of Summer, The Awful Truth, Orlando Bloom, If I Stay, Pretty in Pink
