Bringing up baby

I thoroughly enjoyed bringing up baby.
I love to read the original stories before the become films. I am a firm believer in the idea that no matter the changes from book to film as long as the fellings are correctly portrayed they can be equally good.

Some of the differences; such as the circumstances of the engagement and the quirky/hillarious encounters between David and Susan. Really make the story work on screen.

These particular scenarios remind me greatly of the romantic comedy of today. In that aspect movies like bringing up baby have left their print on film today.  It is unfortunate that the classic knee slap quirks of this era seem to have been diminished and lost for crowd humor. Neither is superior to the other, it just seems more genuine when the laughter comes from a simple place.
