    David Huxley, an archeologist gets mixed up with Susan Vance, losing a precious bone. In searching for it he falls in love with nutty Miss Vance as they track down a baby leopard who gets confused with one which has escaped !

Brilliant crazy comedy one of the funniest ever made which ends with all the splendid cast in jail. Grant and Hepburn make a great screwball team chasing a bone, a dog and a baby leopard.

 

The movie wasn't a box office success and ended Hepburn's RKO contract.
