Howard Hawks' 1938 movie stars Cary Grant as David Huxley, a shy paleontologist who is trying to secure money for his museum when he runs into scatterbrained heiress Susan Vance (Katharine Hepburn). The pair soon encounter multiple leopards and a yappy dog who's determined to steal David's prize dinosaur bone.
Actor Walter Catlett, who portrays a bumbling constable, gave Hepburn comedy tips during filming, as the actress had done mostly dramatic work.
Actress Virginia Walker, who played David's fianc茅 Alice, later married Hawks' brother, William Hawks.
