Katherine Hepburn 100th Anniversary Collection
- Who's watched: M & G
- Mentions: none
- Commentary: The Collection contains the following movies:
The Corn is Green
Morning Glory
Sylvia Scarlett
Undercurrent
Without Love
Of these, Mom's favorite was the first. Neither of us was particularly thrilled with the middle three, although we both thought it was appropriate that Hepburn, at one point in her career, played a woman who masqueraded as a boy. Mom liked the last more than me. I was disappointed because it was one of the few Tracy/Hepburn movies I hadn't seen and the description intrigued me...but, I don't know, their chemistry seemed off in this film, as though they were having a long personal argument underneath the script. It was distracting. Mom really liked the character that Hepburn played in this movie, which didn't surprise me...I think Mom imagined herself as "that type".
