"Bringing Up Baby" (1938) Classic Movie Recommendation

Chet and Dee marvel at the screwiest of screwball comedies, directed by an all-time great and starring two of Hollywood's biggest stars--all before they had won over audiences and critics. Real life didn't offer much to laugh at in 1938. The country was mired in the Great Depression and fascism was on the rise in Europe. Hollywood, long under fire from the Catholic Church and Congress, had submitted to self-censorship. The movies made lemonade from lemons in the form of madcap comedies depicting the idle rich ensnared in ridiculous situations brimming with sexual tension. "Bringing Up Baby," a wild story that tosses an awkward professor, a ditzy but determined society girl and an assortment of oddballs together, along with a pair of leopards and a wire haired terrier, offers a perfect rendering of the formula. The movie didn't do all that well in its initial release but has since earned wide acclaim. Chet and Dee will tell you why you need to do yourself a favor and check out this classic.
