Sweet and funny, it’s the perfect capsule of that time period.

Some of my favorite films, like The Philadelphia Story, are incredibly artificial constructions. They creak, like plays when you see them filmed. I don’t know why but I’ve always preferred that kind of thing: extreme artificiality on film.

Then for The Philadelphia Story, one of the reasons I loved it—and I said to Margot to watch it for Barbie because Katharine Hepburn describes herself as being a Grecian statue or something—is she’s unflappable and then she starts falling apart, and that’s actually where she finds herself.
