VID: A Sophisticated Song (Cary Grant & Katharine Hepburn)

Vid Title: A Sophisticated Song
Length: 1:43
Song: Hugh Laurie - Sophisticated Song
Source: Cary Grant / Katharine Hepburn pairings (Holiday, Bringing Up Baby, The Philadelphia Story)
Warnings: Adorableness, pratfalls

Summary: Cary Grant + Katharine Hepburn = Hijinks


Direct link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9us-wBUZpI0

Notes: Premiered at the Vividcon Challenge show in 2011. The theme was "Blast from the Past".

What to say about this vid? It's something that I picked at on and off for several months. There is actually a completed earlier version that I gave to my mother (who introduced me to these two wonderful actors) for Christmas (because I was broke and nothing says "I love you" like a vid you're not entirely satisfied with. When the challenge theme was announced, I saw the opportunity to finally finish the vid and make it better. Which I did, mainly by adding in a lot more Katharine Hepburn, because AWESOME.

Many thanks to my stupendous betas (so many of you): [personal profile] echan , [personal profile] niqaeli , [personal profile] jmtorres , [info]diannelamerc , and [info]lizbetann .

I love this! Perfect song choice and such a great tribute - I love these movies so much. Particularly loved Cary Grant fainting in Kate's arms.

I love that bit. It's my very favorite part of the vid and I was so happy when I put that together in my brain.

Bringing Up Baby is my litmus test of how awesome a person is. If they do not love it, they may not, in fact, be awesome.
