profoundly understands the comic bluster and bravado of its two lead actors. For Katharine Hepburn, Susan Vance is like an early version of what would be her archetypal character: Boisterous but overwhelmingly naïve and clumsy, thoughtlessly drawing David Huxley into some wild conundrums. I prefer the vehicles that encourage Hepburn and Grant to discover one another on a more equal footing, but this imbalance doesn’t dilute the loveliness of their inbuilt rapport.
