With Katharine Hepburn and Cary Grant. I had no idea what it was about before watching but was pleasantly surprised that there was no Jewyoke accents. What I did find unusual was their speech. It was so fast I could grasp only 2 of 3 words they spoke. From beginning to end it was speed speak, was this the norm of speech back then? Besides documentaries this was the first film I saw from back then besides the 3 stooges and such. I wouldn't rate this film great but would throw in an okay for historical perspective.
Was this film special or was that how normal US people spoke back then?
