Synopsis

On the eve of Tracy Samantha Lord's (Hepburn) wedding, her blue-blood ex-husband, C.K. Dexter Haven (Grant), returns. C.K. discovered that a national tabloid plans to do an expose on Tracy's philandering father and has agreed to smuggle a reporter (James Stewart) into her wedding if the magazine kills the story on the elder Lord. But C.K. never expects that the woman he still loves will suddenly fall for the undercover reporter. Now, before the evening is over, Tracy will be forced to take an unflinching look at herself and to realize which of these three men she truly loves.

    can't fail to please

    06 December 2008
    Adapted from a Broadway play by Philip Barry, The Philadephia Story is a classic 1940's comedy seen by many as being not only one of the finest films of its genre but as one of the best films of its era. Katherine Hepburn stars as Tracy Lord, a rich socialite who is about to remarry. Her ex-husband has other plans and turns up at the wedding together with a reporter, forcing Lord to rethink her feelings. Well, a film with such high praise causes pretty high expectations and luckily The Philadelphia Story fulfils these easily. The film is enjoyable from start to finish with brilliant performances by the three main characters, and perfectly-timed humour. Overall, The Philadelphia Story cannot fail to please.
