Role model?!? You want to be an elite marxist who despises the working class and believes in eugenics? Or did you just like the movies her rich family got her into?

@dalekdx 4 года назад

@@smasher.338 Her family did not have a part in Hepburn's decision to be an actor. She and her father wanted her to be a surgeon, but her tough time during her first year at college changed that. Her father thought her being an actor would be short lived. Her parents and her thought women should be able to have an abortion if they wanted one and her mother worked to ensure women the right to vote. As a teenager Katharine performed the play Beauty And The Beast (she played the beast) at her house and charged the people viewing so she could purchase a phonograph for Navajo native Americans. Katharine Hepburn lived a fascinating life and her no-nonsense, fearless independence and outspokenness are indeed worthy of her being considered a role model.

Mary Tyrone, "Long Day's Journey into Night" - truly remarkable performance. Glad you find the subtle nuance in her Christina Drayton.

Lion in Winter should've been #1. Hepburn was ASTOUNDING as Eleanor of Aquitaine. She was so layered, so nuanced, and you didn't know if she was being manipulative or genuine or coldly cunning...or all 3 at once. That was a Tour de Force performance. Her role as Mary Tyrone in "A Long Day's Journey Into Night" was also outstanding and should've been mentioned

First off, "MsMojo"??? I missed this all these months because you labeled a Hollywood Icon as "girls only." *hmph* Second, The Lion in Winter as merely #6??? Outrageous. That was her role for the ages. Also, you had this role featured in the "Top 10 Best Actress Winners", and you had her performance in Guess Whose Coming TO Dinner featured (not ranked) in the "the most Underwhelming winners" list. Yet here, you have Dinner surpassing Lion - Seems like a contradiction of sorts??? (sorry, you're dealing with a fanatic here). Thirdly, wished you had at least mentioned Suddenly, Last Summer, but glad you had Bringing Up Baby where it was. Lastly, while I griped a lot, I did have a lot of fun with this list. I hope you do Bette Davis sometime, she' my favorite Classic.
