Here comes the bride! And the ex-husband. And a gossip-rag columnist on assignment. Here comes Katharine Hepburn, Cary Grant and James Stewart in one of the great comedy romances, a witty, luminous tale about a faultfinding, bride-to-be socialite who gets her comeuppance and an unexpected Mr. Right.The stories behind The Philadelphia Story (directed by George Cukor) are Hollywood legend. After being labeled box-office poison, Hepburn rekindled her stardom with a beguiling reprise of her 1939 Broadway role. Top-billed Grant demanded and got a then-colossal $137,000 salary - donating it to British War Relief. And Stewart won his only Best Actor Academy Award as the wisecracking and champagne-illuminated scribe. (Writer Donald Ogden Stewart won the film's second Oscar for adapting Philip Barry's play). In 1998, the success story continued when it made the American Film Institute's 100 Best American Films list.
