Sylvia Scarlett (1935) RKO Pictures

Directed by George Cukor, starring Katherine Hepburn, Cary Grant, Edmund Gwenn, Brian Ahearne. NR, 95 mins.

After the death of her mother, Sylvia Scarlett (Katharine Hepburn) decides that she can help her debt-ridden father, Henry (Edmund Gwenn), by dressing like a young man in order to move more freely in society. Returning to England from France, the pair are conned by smuggler Jimmy Monkley (Cary Grant), but are impressed enough by him to join several of his unsuccessful swindling schemes. Sylvia is unexpectedly brought out of her liberated masculine persona when she meets a breezy bohemian artist.
