Desk Set (1957)
Director: Walter Lang
Starring: Spencer Tracy, Katharine Hepburn, Gig Young
Synopsis:
An efficiency expert is hired to modernize a TV network's reference department, but the existing staffers view him and his project with suspicion.
Impressions:
Spencer Tracy and Katharine Hepburn go really well together. No real surprise there. This film isn't anywhere near as problematic as Adam's Rib, so you can enjoy Tracy and Hepburn's chemistry a lot more. It's interesting seeing a look at IT integration in its early days and while the movie seems to lean on the Luddite side, it actually proves to be more balanced in the end. It's a fun movie and worth seeing.
