Hollywood Blacklist: The End of HUAC (1938-1975)
"This is the best of all the Tracy-Hepburn comedies—and one whose unabashedly feminist screenplay seems more incisive with each passing year."—Michael Wilmington, Chicago Tribune
Husband-and-wife attorney team Adam (Spencer Tracy) and Amanda (Katharine Hepburn) Bonner clash in the courtroom when a woman is arrested for attempting to kill her husband after she discovers him with his mistress. Adam thinks he has an open-and-shut case, but Amanda isn't so sure of the verdict. Director George Cukor (The Philadelphia Story) directs this classic comedy with an Oscar nominated script from blacklisted screenwriter and actor Ruth Gordon (Harold and Maude) in one of the wittiest battles of the sexes ever.
