Product: Holiday (1938)
Rating: 2.0
Romantic Snooze
For those of you who found "The Philadelphia Story" a witty rom-com about the upper crust will enjoy this film immensely. For those who found it a ponderous bore should avoid "Holiday" at all costs. "Holiday" is the more excrutiating of the two films with characters even less interesting. Despite their Herculean efforts to breathe life into this inert material neither Cary Grant nor Katharine Hepburn makes you care much about their characters. The fault lies not only with an uninteresting script but also with the lackluster direction of George Cukor, probably the most overrated director this side of Vincente Minnelli. Yawn!!!
