Science on Screen: Bringing Up Baby (1938)

 
Real Art Ways’ new season of Science on Screen® invites you to experience the pairing of a feature film and a mind-expanding talk from a notable area scientist. This year, we will be presenting this series at the Connecticut Science Center. 

Harried paleontologist David Huxley (Cary Grant) has to make a good impression on society matron Mrs. Random (May Robson), who is considering donating one million dollars to his museum. On the day before his wedding, Huxley meets Mrs. Random’s high-spirited young niece, Susan Vance (Katharine Hepburn), a madcap adventuress who immediately falls for the straitlaced scientist. The ever-growing chaos, including a missing dinosaur bone and a pet leopard, threatens to swallow him whole.
