114: There's Lots of Nice Coats...
Description
This film was a passion project for George Cukor and Katharine Hepburn. RKO let them do it, but the studio was sorry, when the movie confused audiences in 1935, and made no money. It has attained a bit of a cult following since. Hepburn and her father, Miracle on 34th Street’s Edmund Gwynn are fleeing trouble, and Sylvia dons a male disguise to help her dad. They meet con man Cary Grant, and hilarity and awkward moments of gender identity ensue.
Sylvia Scarlett
Shelly Brisbin with Nathan Alderman, Randy Dotinga and Micheline Maynard
