I loved her. I worked in a little shop in Englewood NJ in the early 80’s and she came in with her assistant and I just stared at this amazing woman. I remember she bought two pillows and some scents and I wrapped everything nicely and she was so grateful and polite. I called the owner and she had written a check for the purchase and my boss just said, that check will not be deposited. I went home that day just wishing I had her as my grandma. I will always treasure that experience and still to this day, I get so sad knowing that she is no longer around.

My father, as a joke, always called my sister Katharine Hepburn, and I knew her to be a Hollywood actress, but I never really watched her films or knew too much about her life. I was always more enthralled with Lana Turner; however, I recently saw a documentary of her life on Netflix and I was drawn to her story and her life. The more I saw her throughout the documentary, the more I was drawn to her. She was so enigmatic, smart, and beautiful. I've now seen, in a matter of two days, three of her films, and I gotta tell you, I'm in love with her acting. What a wonderful actress and person. Quite enchanting 🙂

I’ve had very few heroes in my lifetime, but Katherine Hepburn is one of them. She embodies the energetic, uncompromising, creative, vulnerable and courageous life, without qualification. A terrific line from Frank Sinatra‘s My Way applies to Kate: “I faced it all and I stood tall and did it my way.” I can’t wait to do a movie review in the next month or so to one of my favorite movies of all time: Philadelphia Story. My God, she is simply a dynamo in that, confident and witty and yet vulnerable.

I have only watched seven minutes of this and I love it already. The introduction was clever and fun to watch. Her home was in Hartford and that's where "Listen To The Song Of Life" is carved into a fireplace. The house in Fenwick was the family's summer home. She did adopt her brother's birth date, except for the year. She told people she was born in 1909 and she was actually born in 1907. I just finished watching and I think this is the best documentary I have seen on Katharine Hepburn in the 40 years I have been a fan of hers.

When I was young, she said the most wise thing in an interview - a woman can't have career and also raise children. It impressed me deeply, and I thought a lot about it. I think what she meant was that she understood what children need to grow up to be happy, healthy people - the undivided attention and loving care of someone. And that her career took so much of her time and considerable energy, she thought she wouldn't be able to do a good job. I chose a career and never regretted not raising unhappy, unhealthy people.

Katharine Hepburn once stated that after her beloved older brother died accidentally i.e. not a suicide, she didn't have children because she had to help raise the other four younger siblings since she was now the oldest! My feeling is that she regreted not having a child with Spencer because once her friend Cynthia McFadden who got married at Fenwich had a baby, they named him Spencer after Spencer Tracy who had two children from his marriage to Louise.
@magdap37911 ай бұрын
Stevie Nicks said pretty much the same thing. Even in this day and age women still have to choose between a successful career and raising children, you never hear a man with that problem, he’ll just get a wife to do it. Women who claim to “have it all”…maybe ask their kids a couple of years from now. And women who tried to delegate the duties to a “house husband” always ended up with an insecure, unfulfilled man cheating on them or competing with them, to prove their manhood. Gender defined roles, it seems, will never completely go away, women will always be on the losing side because their presence is so crucial in a child’s development. Why do psychoanalysts always ask “Now, tell me about your mother?”

I remember watching a documentary in which she said something that really resonated with me. It was something about psychology and looking inward and how ultimately it was a dead end. Like most people who accomplished anything noteworthy on this planet, she was born with a surplus of energy that most of us are not allotted, but it makes sense. The movers and the shakers of this world don’t waste their time overthinking & reflecting, they’re too busy doing & working. Think of the Einsteins, the Carnegies, the Kennedys, the Taylor Swifts and the Elon Musks of this world - not the kind of personalities you’d find at a therapist’s office, moping, crying and complaining. Like all of you reading this, I’m going into the ground as fertilizer only, my presence will not change this planet or society one bit, but her saying this somehow inspires me to DO more and reflect less, because, like she insinuated, self reflection paired with no action leads absolutely nowhere.

I’m sorry, I will be the one voice in the wilderness here. This as a 67 year old woman who grew up very much a fan of nostalgic Hollywood and Katherine Hepburn. Until I realized what a selfish woman she was. Morally she was a horrible, entitled terrible woman. That she had the audacity to call Spencer Tracey’s widow to ask her if they could be friends, the long suffering wife who raised his children, one who was disabled, without him because he abandoned them is the height of audacity. Then she “couldn’t believe it.” I never knew she did that. I thought Tracey’s wife’s reply, “You see, I always thought you were a rumor.” Was BRILLIANT. What a class act. I have far more respect for Spencer Tracey’s wife than I do Katherine Hepburn.

I will never ever understand why some people want to say she and especially Tracey were gay. It's so evident they were into each other honestly. Just because she wore pants before they became stylish is no reason at all. She had love affairs with several leading men and hers with Howard Hughes was well known. Plus she almost married him. People are obsessed with who is or isn't gay anymore. These two were most certainly straight. Give it up😐

In the final analysis...words said by Spencer in GWCTD, it really isn't our business. I think she was perhaps wanting to be a man , and therefore dressed like one. Acted like one in some roles. She just didn't care what people thought of her that way. I saw her in a Ckive James interview...there she was in slacks, and these unattractive almost boots on. For some reason she hid her neck,was extremely sensitive about how her neck looked, but openly admitted in that interview and others her obvious need to be masculine. In several interviews she blanatly states she wanted desperately to be a boy as a child, and also wanted to be a man. The interviewer hears the implications of what she's saying, but no interviewer Ever asked well then are you gay? It would have been the follow up question, but none Ever asked it. It shows the tremendous respect everyone felt for her. So was she gay? Perhaps. Obviously. Maybe. I don't think sex was that important to her...just a gut feeling I get. I do believe she did love Spencer, and he her.
@ilianaveltcheva90802 жыл бұрын
Far from every somewhat (or even very) masculine woman is a lesbian, so maybe she wasn’t. She might have been though. What’s sad is that either way, she couldn’t win. If she was gay, she never got to be herself 100% + she was being judged for the “affair” the studio concocted for years on end. If she was straight, she was unfortunate enough to fall for a married man and got judged for acting on it far more harshly than he did. Self-righteous Christians are still slinging mud at her in this very comment section (with the fervour of someone who got cheated on or is cheating), so imagine how bad it was back then. For KH to manage to still live on her terms and accomplish so much anyway is quite remarkable. Basically, she couldn’t win, except she did 😊

It seems oh, so very important to you to "establish" she and Tracey were 100% straight, though. You're conjecturing about them the same as those who wonder otherwise. None of us knew her. Your belief isn't more definitive because you're more comfortable with it. What's so hard to understand about this interest? If your favorite star was from your hometown, you'd feel an added attachment, for instance. People conjecture because it's inspiring to think someone you admire might have that in common with you. Simple as. You seemingly believe there's something wrong with being thought gay or bi, so that's solely your problem. There are people KH knew, who were actually friends and colleagues - meaning knew her much better than either of us - who believe or understand or say they were outright *told* by KH that she was involved with women too. Odds are they know better than us, who just watch her wonderful movies. Everybody is just trying to get through life, with some enjoyment and sanity. Lighten up.

This is damn near unwatchable due to the unskippable ads every 3 minutes. Shame, as its a great topic and seemed well made.
