Bringing Up Baby

Bring Up Baby was a very interesting movie and was funny at times. The falling of David and Susan always happened in pairs so near the end of the movie you could expect one to fall if the other had already. The predictability sort of took out of the movie at part such as when David slid down a rock cliff, you knew Susan was close behind. A part where this pairing is done well is when David and Susan attempt to wade through the creek/river. They both fall at the same time unlike in other times when it will be one after the other. This makes it a surprise and not a prediction. Another thing in the movie that stuck out was the barking of the dog. The dog was not in any way beneficial to the production of the movie. Its constant and monotonous barking made people want to strangle it or beat it to a bloody pulp. This hating of the dog creates hostility in the viewer so that he/she ends up not enjoying other parts in the film and makes them only be able to think about when the dog will be gone. Making the viewer angry is not something that a director should want his movie to do. It simply makes people hate the movie and thus hate the director for making it. It more than likely makes less people go to see the movie if bad things spread around communities about it. Overall I found the movie to be just O.K., it had its funny parts, but it also had its extremely annoying parts.
