Cary Grant and Katharine Hepburn sparkle in George Cukor’s sophisticated comedy of manners from 1938.

Grant plays Johnny Case, a self-made man who dreams of escaping work for a life of freedom and plans to take a year-long holiday, an idea that shocks his wealthy fiancée but delights her spirited older sister Linda (Hepburn). Brimming with pithy dialogue and irresistible chemistry, Holiday is a comedic masterpiece from Hollywood’s golden age, and one of Cukor’s best.

"Capturing the turn from the Roaring 20s to the Great Depression, George Cukor's film, starring greats Cary Grant and Katharine Hepburn, wears its sadness on its sleeve, but is also incredibly fun." — Noah Gittell, Washington City Paper
