Both based on plays by Philip Barry. Both adapted by Donald Ogden Stewart (with Sidney Buchman for Holiday).
Both directed by George Cukor. Both starring Katharine Hepburn and Cary Grant. And both are romantic comedies with a class warfare angle.
Of the two I prefer "Holiday". It has a layer of warmth, seen in the relationships between Hepburn and brother Lew Ayers, and between Grant and his friends Edward Everett Horton & Jean Dixon. That warmth is something TPA doesn't try to provide. So I have more feeling for "Holiday".
Which do you prefer?
