Bringing Up Baby / USA / 1938

‘When a man is wrestling a leopard in the middle of a pond, he’s in no position to run.’

True then, and true now. Coming in at a paltry 33 on The Guardian’s recent list of the 50 Funniest Movies as voted for the British public (who preferred Shaun Of The Dead, Shrek and The Big Lebowski), this is about as perfect as filmmaking gets- flawless in terms of script, photography, characterization and particularly special effects: the use of split screen is practically flawless. But how in the hell did they get the leopard and the dog to fight like that?
