Romantic Rampage Coming to Roxy Sun
Katharine Hepburn revealing her
talent as a comedienne, with Cary
Grant opposite her, in “Bringing Up
Baby,” is offered as the outstanding
laugh show of the screen by RKO
Radio. Backed by a sparkling cast
headed with Charles Ruggles and
May Robson, the stars “go to town"
in uproarious fashion..
The story is based on the go-
getter activities of Miss Hepbum, a
madcap heiries with a remarkable
propensity for creating trouble. Al
though Cary Grant is a studious pro
fessor, interested only in completing
a huge dinosaur skeleton and in pro
moting a million dollars to carry on
the work of his museum, Miss Hep

Along with its dizzy flood of mirth,
the "Bringing Up Baby” is notable
for its new aspect of Hepburn. Here
tofore distinguished for her dramatic
portrayals, the star is said to reveal
extraordinary talents for fun-making,
and to establish herself as one of
filmdom’s top comediennes.
Cary
Grant, who has already made a name
for screen comedy in ‘Topper” and
“The Awful Truth,” is ideally cast
in another amusing role opposite
Miss Hepburn, and all of the sup
porting players were chosen in large
measure for their comedy ability.
The film has novel backgrounds.
One of the most unusual is a vast
hall in a natural history museum,
with an exhibit of a skeleton model
ed from a brontosaurus—a pre-his
toric animal some 80 feet long —
which represents Grant’s life work.
