Man's Favorite Sport?
Year: 1964
Director:
Howard Hawks
Man's Favorite Sport?
Cary Grant
turned down the lead role because he was 59 and leading lady
Paula Prentiss
was only 24.
Filming began late in 1962 but the movie was not released until 1964.
This film was meant to be an homage/remake to Hawks'
Bringing Up Baby
, and Hawks even wanted
Katharine Hepburn
and
Cary Grant
to star in the movie.
