Curtis H “The Philadelphia Story” turned in some very strong performances from its already solid cast. Katharine Hepburn did an absolutely fantastic job as Tracy, and it felt as though she was made for that role. I must say, however, what really stood out was James Stewart’s stellar performance as Mike. The chemistry between Tracy and Mike was electrifying, and Cary Grant did a great job at playing the nuisance ex-husband. Ruth Hussey and Virginia Weidler were also very memorable. I enjoyed many scenes from “The Philadelphia Story”, and it got quite a few chuckles out of me. It was an emotional rollercoaster that I wanted to stay on. This film does a great job at engaging with the audience as it led up to the main event, and it was good fun to watch everything unravel at once. Now, where “The Philadelphia Story” loses a few points, was with the unexpected ending. I’m someone who cannot stand for certain things, and even though it was a different time, I still cannot fathom making the same choice as Tracy. It was as though the film was trying to teach women to stand by their man no matter what, and that you should accept each other’s faults. I would be fine with this, had it not been for the first scene of the film. Nevertheless, “The Philadelphia Story” was a very exciting and enjoyable watch. I’d give it an 8/10.
