[Accessory Reel] Bringing Up Baby (1938)


Listen Later

Chaos has escaped its cage—our Accessory Reel for Bringing Up Baby is live, and it’s sprinting headfirst into mayhem with a leopard on the loose.

This isn’t just a romantic comedy—it’s a masterclass in controlled chaos. Cary Grant’s buttoned-up scientist collides with Katharine Hepburn’s unstoppable force of charm, impulse, and catastrophic optimism, where logic collapses and laughter commits repeat offenses.

In this reel, Tata and Mamie spotlight the escalating absurdity, the physical comedy that refuses to sit still, and the quiet brilliance beneath the madness—timing so precise it feels accidental, and performances so wild they somehow stay perfectly in step.

Blink and you’ll miss the pratfall. Look away and the plot has already run off with the dinosaur bone. Pour a glass, suspend reason, and embrace the beautiful disorder—because in Bringing Up Baby, dignity is optional, love is inevitable, and chaos always wins.

Press play on the Bringing Up Baby Accessory Reel—where the wine flows freely, logic takes a holiday, and you’ve officially been Booby Trapped.
