About this movie

Oscar-winners Spencer Tracy ("Dr. Jekyl and Mr. Hyde," "Bad Day at Black Rock") and Katharine Hepburn ("The Philadelphia Story," "The African Queen") ignite the screen in this hilarious war of the sexes. Tracy is a gruff sports promoter who tries in vain to turn outspoken Hepburn into a competitive athlete. Things get delighfully complicated when they fall in love. An all-star supporting cast includes Jim Backus ("Gilligan's Island," "Rebel without a Cause"), Chuck Connors ("The Rifleman") and the screen debut of Charles Bronson ("The Dirty Dozen," "Death Wish"). Directed by Oscar-winner George Cukor ("My Fair Lady") and nominated for Best Story.
