Kennedy Center Honors - Katharine Hepburn tribute - presented by Angela Lansbury

[@katharina2537]

Katharine Hepburn was a classic legend ❤️

[@dalekdx]

Fun fact: When she met President George Bush at this event she said to him "You're wrong about abortion."

[@longbranch11207]

Kate was such a great beauty

[@orvincastanares1439]

Wow probably her first time seeing herself in these films especially of Spencer Tracy. She didn’t like to watch her films. Hope it gave her some pleasure.

And also the pictures at 6:05 - 6:19?

[@screenactorsguilable]

I admire Kate much more Meryl Streep. MS is such a scheming opportunist in contrast with a free-spirited independent woman.

[@screenactorsguilable]

@Jannet Lane she embraced it while Meryl somehow proves to be a cerebral performance aiming at attention

[@katharinehepburnfan]

Do you have the picture at 3:35? If so, can you post it on tumblr? :)

[@thedivinemisshepburn]

No, sorry, I don't have any of them. They were also new to me when I watched this fragment.

[@chriscanale9535]

love Kate

[@nealhurwitz]

interesting wealthy woman... OK. :)

[@sunspotdawn1261]

She did not talk back to directors. Her family owned studios. She was related to the REAL KENNEDYS.

[@dalekdx]

No they didn't and no she wasn't. Her mother's family did own Corning glass however.

[@javiervalverde2374]

She did talk back to her directors. She talked back to John Ford during Mary of Scotland (1936) and he didn't like her doing that. It was the first time a woman talked back to him. She didn't back down and he fell in love with her because of that.

[@javiervalverde2374]

She's not related to the Kennedys. She's related to James Hepburn, Lord Bothwell, an enemy of Mary of Scotland. She was a descendant of Scottish nobility.

[@javiervalverde2374]

Her family did not own studios. Only the Kennedys did with RKO

[@sunspotdawn1261]

Wow sounds like Angela hated her.

[@randysills4418]

No, it doesn't... Kate was different than most. I think that is all she was saying...

[@sunspotdawn1261]

Half of this is complete BS. I guess if it had been the REAL KATE HEPBURN IT WOULD HELP.
