Thank you for another well done video! I enjoyed your review! In my opinion, this film is above average but not great. I haven't seen it in a long time and maybe if I saw it again I would feel differently, but based on how I remember it, I feel that Beah Richards gave the best performance and Katharine Houghton (Katharine Hepburn's niece in real life) gave the worst. This was Katharine Houghton's film debut. I thought her character was annoying. The production seemed quite stagy, but that did not bother me. Katharine Hepburn won a Best Actress Oscar for this film. I don't really have any problem with that, although this performance certainly is not one of my favorites by her.

I agree - Katharine Houghton is the weakest in film. Althouh I do like her, I think her inexperience makes her naive character better. But I understand your opinion.

@@thefilmclassic4210 Another thing that I remember feeling when watching this film is that racial discrimination seemed to be the only potential problem the parents were really focusing on -- not the fact that Joey and John had only known each other for ten days or that he was fourteen years older than she was or that he was so much more mature than she was. I can understand Joey being impressed with John and developing an immediate crush on him when they met, but it is a lot harder for me to understand John falling in love with Joey so quickly and seeing her as a compatible wife.
