Join us for a showing of Adam’s Rib on June 16th at 10am in the Community Meeting Room! Coffee, tea, and popcorn will be provided.
A courtroom rivalry finds its way into the household when prosecuting lawyer Adam Bonner (Spencer Tracy) faces off against his wife, Amanda (Katharine Hepburn), who happens to be a defense attorney. Working on opposite sides of a lawsuit where a woman (Judy Holliday) has shot her cheating husband (Tom Ewell), Adam and Amanda are both determined to win the case, and their home becomes the setting for comical showdowns, with neither spouse willing to relent. This classic 1949 romantic comedy showcases the dynamic chemistry between Hollywood legends Katharine Hepburn and Spencer Tracy. Directed by George Cukor, the film explores themes of gender equality and marital conflict with wit and charm.
This program is intended for older adults. Thank you.
