As with the song challenge, I'm making this an "of all time" series.
My favorite movie is The Philadelphia Story. I love classic films and this one is the one I go back to over and over again. For me, it's the story of people who belong together despite utter craziness. It stars Katherine Hepburn, Cary Grant, and Jimmy Stewart and it's the film that brought Hepburn's career back after making a few flops.
In the film, heiress Tracy Lord (Hepburn) is divorced from C.K. Dexter Haven (Grant) and is marrying a guy named George in what is said to be the wedding of the year. Spy magazine sends reporter Mike Connor (Jimmy Stewart) to report on the wedding and things get wacky. It's not just a comedy, there is heart to this movie, but it's not sappy sweet either. It's just wonderful.
Here's the trailer.
Also, Tracy's sister sings "Lydia the Tattooed Lady" in one scene and that's something you don't see everyday.
