This year, we will be presenting this series at the Connecticut Science Center.

Film Synopsis Harried paleontologist David Huxley (Cary Grant) has to make a good impression on society matron Mrs.

Random (May Robson), who is considering donating one million dollars to his museum.

On the day before his wedding, Huxley meets Mrs.

Random’s high-spirited young niece, Susan Vance (Katharine Hepburn), a madcap adventuress who immediately falls for the straitlaced scientist.

The ever-growing chaos, including a missing dinosaur bone and a pet leopard, threatens to swallow him whole.

Program 3:00 pm: Professor Bhart-Anjan Bhullar from Yale’s Department of Earth & Planetary Sciences will lead a discussion on the rich history of paleontology in Connecticut. 3:30 pm: Professor Bhart-Anjan Bhullar is the Associate Professor of Earth & Planetary Sciences at Yale University and the Associate Curator of Vertebrate Paleontology and Vertebrate Zoology for the Yale Peabody Museum in New Haven.
