| Review Summary and Plot Commentary about Holiday |
|---|
Linda Seton (Katharine Hepburn) falls for her younger sister's fiancee (Cary Grant), Johnny Case, but decides that her sister comes first. But mismatched timing and partners creates this delightfully serious romantic comedy as Johnny himself begins to see Linda as the better choice.
