Finally! A movie I honestly really enjoyed. I loved the film Bringing Up Baby, and it was even in black and white! I have never liked a black and white film before, so this is definitely a big deal for me. I think that what held my attention the most was the constant action. Between Susan's constant nagging and the all the action with the leopard, my attention was consistently held. Another aspect that may not seem very common that really drew my attention was the wardrobes. I love the style of clothing during that time period and I found Susan, played by Katherine Hepburn, to have a great sense of fashion. On a website called Movie Diva, they talk about the creator of Hepburn's wardrobe and how great it was:
I think that Howard Greer did a fabolous job of assembling Katherine’s wardrobe and I think that fashion in the 1930’s is the greatest thing ever and if I could choose to obtain a style from any era it would be that of the 1930’s.Katharine Hepburn’s wardrobe is by Howard Greer, who blended his on-screen
work with a salon in LA where he designed dresses for private clients,
sometimes the same ones he dressed in the movies. Hepburn’s wardrobe is quite
chic and she wears two extremely eccentric veils, one as an evening accessory
with her lame dress in the supper club scene, and one aggressively (leopard?)
spotted one in the final one. Bringing Up Baby’s most memorable costume however,
is the silly negligee that David is forced to don after his shower.
