The Philadelphia Story (1940): Cary Grant, Katharine Hepburn and James Stewart


     Directed by George Cukor, based on the play by Philip Barry, The Philadelphia Story (1940) remains an undisputed Classic. Sparking with witty dialogue, the story concerns a socialite whose wedding plans are jeopardized by her ex-husband and two tabloid reporters. Cary Grant and Katharine Hepburn are excellent in the lead roles. James Stewart won a Best Supporting Actor Academy Award for his performance. The rest of the cast is great as well, including Ruth Hussey, John Howard and Roland Young.
