The incomparable screen team of Spencer Tracy and Katharine Hepburn take on the law--and each other--in Adam's Rib, one of their all-time greats. Witty, intelligent, and laugh-out-loud funny, this courtroom comedy establishes their reputation as the strongest, most brilliant, and long-lasting couple on the screen. Attorney Amanda Bonner (Hepburn) is moved to defend a dizzy blonde (played to perfection by Judy Holliday) who has shot her two-timing spouse. But Amanda doesn't know that her own husband, Adam (Tracy), a sharp assistant district attorney, has been assigned as prosecutor in the case. Level-headedness quickly turns to single-mindedness as the trial gains momentum--and the counselors just may need some counseling to keep the case from overruling their marriage! Hepburn's Amanda Bonner is like the one and only Hepburn herself: beautiful, intelligent, funny, rebellious and determined. Tracy, the very model of the easygoing, smart, obstinate modern man, is the perfect complement. Together, they make this courtroom battle of the sexes a true comedy classic.
