Adam's Rib [VHS]

Spencer Tracy, Katharine Hepburn

MGM (Warner), 1996

Just Too Great Comedy!
I love this movie. I've seen more time than I can count and still have a great time with it. Spencer Tracy and Katherine Hepburn follow up their comedy Woman of the Year with another great movie. Both husband and wife are lawyers and they come upon a case where a ...

Desk Set [VHS]

Spencer Tracy, Katharine Hepburn

20th Century Fox, 1998

Movie review for this that I wrote for one of my MLIS classes
*** Warning - this is a total spoiler. *** Released on May 1, 1957, Desk Set is an excellent portrayal of librarians. Bunny Watson played by Katherine Hepburn is the head librarian in the research center of a broadcasting company. She is depicted as a very ...

Suddenly Last Summer [VHS]

Elizabeth Taylor, Katharine Hepburn

Sony Pictures, 1997

Catholic+pagan=breathtaking
way back when, in school, one of my professors proclaimed this Williams's best play. i agree with him wholeheartedly (with "Streetcar" up there, with its very similar theme/themes, ie. human frailties and those who prey on their fellow human creatures). its ...

Philadelphia Story [VHS]

Cary Grant, Katharine Hepburn

Great movie!
This movie is a must see. Katharine Hepburn and Jimmy Stewart are great. It was a great deal to buy it on Amazon and I highly recommend it for anyone that loves film or classics.

Keeper of the Flame [VHS]

Spencer Tracy, Katharine Hepburn

MGM (Warner), 1998

Political Drama
Very different from other Tracy/Hepburn films, both in style and substance. I have viewed this multiple times and thoroughly enjoy it. Strong political theme has kept this from being one of the top films of the era.

Love Among the Ruins [VHS]

Katharine Hepburn, Laurence Olivier

20th Century Fox, 1989

Wonderful movie!
I, too, want to cast my vote for this wonderful movie to be released on a DVD. I have a VHS tape and am so afraid something will happen to it and I will lose this movie. It is an all-time favorite with a great, romantic story, comedic touches, wonderful cast - it's ...

The African Queen [VHS]

Humphrey Bogart, Katharine Hepburn

CBS/Fox VIdeo, 1997

Well worth the wait.
One of the greatest motion pictures of all time "The African Queen" finally gets released on a modern format. Years went by since the advent of DVD and one title that was mysteriously not to be found on store shelves was "The African Queen". Humphrey Bogart and ...

Grace Quigley / Movie [VHS]

Katharine Hepburn, Nick Nolte

MGM (Warner), 1993

Parting is Such Sweet Sorrow. . . .
At a time when Dr. Jack Kivorkian has made his way back into the headlines and there is soo much controversy over the morality of mercy killing, "Grace Quigley" lends a comical twist to the issue. Grace Quigley (Katharine Hepburn) seeks out a hit-man (Nick Nolte) to ...

Rainmaker (1956) [VHS]

Burt Lancaster, Katharine Hepburn

Paramount, 1998

"He's a Dream"
Katherine Hepburn really plays it up as an old maid trying to repel the the jesting, jabbing, goading of her male family members in an effort to get her to find a man and marry. A part of her is content to remain the way she is--that is until she tastes the magic of ...

The Lion in Winter [VHS]

Peter O'Toole, Katharine Hepburn

MGM (Video & DVD), 2000

Ultimate Dysfunctional Family @ Christmas Movie!
I think that this is probably the best acting I've ever seen... Hepburn and O'Toole are marvelous, though in no small part because the script is one of the best ever written. While one could watch this movie at any time of the year, I choose to make it part of my ...

Song of Love (1947) [VHS]

Katharine Hepburn, Paul Henreid

MGM (Warner), 1998

Great Portrait of a Musical Era
I must differ with a previous reviewer --- "Even a subdued Hepburn seems to be more than a match for the men in this movie, although as portrayed in the film Schumann and Brahms are a pretty clueless pair." I don't quite get that statement. "More than a match"? ...

Summertime [VHS]

Katharine Hepburn, Rossano Brazzi

Homevision, 2000

Still a Gem
Fell in love with this movie as a kid...okay, maybe I didn't "get" it all back then, but I sure did fall in love with Venice. So, when I became that "spinster schoolteacher", it even became more of an iconic film for me! I finally travelled to Venice in the Fall of ...
