I have just finished watching Adam's Rib and am still smiling while writing this review. This is a charming, romantic, comedy about the battle of sexes fought mainly by the two protagonists, played to perfection by Ms. Katherine Hepburn and Mr. Spencer Tracy. Adam's Rib, directed by George Cukor, starts with a house-wife following her husband to the mistress' place and fires shots at him in anger. The husband survives and the wife is charged with an attempted murder. Adam(Tracy) and Amanda(Hepburn) are a happy lawyer couple who till now have managed to keep their profession out of their personal lives. Adam, a public prosecutor, gets the case to prosecute the wife while Amanda takes it up to defend the wife. Their arguments in the courtroom by day, gradually mounts tension in their domestic lives in the evening.
