Bring a blanket and your favorite candy for a movie under the stars at Cedar Hill. In honor of resident Katharine Hepburn, we will present Holiday (1938), co-starring Hepburn and Cary Grant.

In this romantic comedy, a young man (Grant) falls in love with a girl (Doris Nolan) from a wealthy family. His unusual plan to go on an extended holiday for the early years of his life is met with skepticism by everyone except for his fiancée’s eccentric sister (Hepburn) and long-suffering brother (Lew Ayres). Well-received by critics, Holiday is the third of four films starring Hepburn and Grant.
