The Someday Cinema Series will screen the sublimely ridiculous Bringing Up Baby (1938) starring Cary Grant and Katharine Hepburn, at 1, 4, and 7 pm Sunday, November 17, at Edmond Town Hall Theatre, 45 Main Street in Newtown.

Tickets are $3, and the 1 pm matinee will be shown with captions for the benefit of the hearing impaired.

Cary Grant plays David, an uptight, humorless, and intellectual zoologist hoping for a large donation to fund his projects. He soon collides with Susan Vance (Hepburn), whose charming yet scatterbrained personality stretch the limits of his self-control.

Add a leopard named Baby, and a dog named George who loves to bury just about everything, and the result is a quintessential American screwball comedy, deftly directed by Howard Hawks.

Audiences of all ages will enjoy the delightful fast-paced comedy.

This month’s film is privately sponsored. The series is presented by Newtown Cultural Arts Commission

The last film of the season, The Shop Around The Corner (1940), is scheduled for Sunday, December 15. Due to the chance of schedule changes, visit tiny.cc/2019somedaycinema for up to date information.

Three screenings of Bringing Up Baby, the second of four movies pairing Katharine Hepburn and Cary Grant, will be next Someday Cinema Series offering.
