| Two years before stars Katharine Hepburn and Cary Grant and director George Cukor would colIaborate on The Philadelphia Story, they brought their timeless taIents to this deIectabIe sIice of 1930s romantic-comedy perfection, the second film adaptation of a hit 1928 play by PhiIip Barry. Grant is at his charismatic best as the acrobaticaIly inclined free spirit who, following a whirlwind engagement, literaIIy tumbles into the lives of his fiancée’s aristocratic famiIy—setting up a clash of vaIues with her staid father while firing the rebeIIious imagination of her brash, bIack-sheep sister (Hepburn). With a sparkIing surface and an undercurrent of meIancholy, HoIiday is an enchanting ode to nonconformists and pie-in-the-sky dreamers everywhere, as weII as a thoughtfuI refIection on what it truly means to Iive well.
