EP. 65 — Bringing Up Baby

Amy & Paul dig into 1938’s Howard Hawks screwball classic Bringing Up Baby! They ask if Cary Grant was the model for Christopher Reeve’s Superman, learn how Hepburn modulated her performance to get the comic tone just right, and wonder why weddings were so casual in the 30s. Plus: Cary’s daughter Jennifer Grant shares memories of growing up with her father.
