In real life, it’s dangerous to part ways with a human being - however evil - in this manner. It’s not productive to unnecessarily antagonise anyone who has ever been closely associated with us. But in a film, it’s indispensable!

Katharine Hepburn was a remarkable actress and professional. What I admire most about her is that in the 1930’s she was label box office poison, a gamut of emotions from A to B. Yet she was able to transform her early misfortunes in her career to a longevity of a success and admiration moving forward. It shows how if we play our cards smartly, we can turn our mistakes in majesty.

YES! 100% agree! To be honest, I’m not the biggest fan of Joey’s character. I get that she represents the beauty of young love, but at best she’s naive and at worst she’s shockingly insensitive to the feelings of others the way she rushes through everything. Or maybe I’m just a little cold to poor Katharine Houghton who’s simply outclassed by the massive talents she’s surrounded by like Tracy, Hepburn, and Poitier (I mean this as a simple fact, not an indictment of her ability). Despite all of that, I bristled when Hilary called this woman a “child” and simply loved Christina going full mama bear and defending her daughter and her choices.

Virginia Christine was picked specifically for this role. Yes she was Mrs. Olsen of the Folger's Coffee commercials but she had a long and distinguished career behind her. Both Hepburn and Tracy just loved great actors and loved working with them. To be chosen for one of their films was an honor itself and often catapulted actors to top careers. They always worked on closed sets because they were genuine artists. Kate's Oscar in this case surely was for both of them.

Director Stanley Kramer was fond of Virginia Christine; he cast her in two of his most successful films: JUDGMENT AT NUREMBERG and this one.

That's something that doesn't happen very often in film or in reality. The truth doesn't sit just right with most people. Also this brilliant movie can boast a cast of some of the finest actors in the business. Tracy, Poitier, Hepburn, Richards and Kellaway have been on my list of favorites since i first viewed the film back in the seventies. I'm almost certain they will remain there the rest of my life. Also the most important aspect of this wonderful picture, hands down, is this scene. Possibly the greatest scene ever filmed. I suggest a Lifetime Achievement Award or A Best Leading Scene Oscar for it's performance.

Katharine Hepburn is the ultimate role model for class and elegance. I’ve looked up to her ever since I first saw her in The African Queen. IMO this is the greatest scene of her whole career. She proves something that so many people these days seem to have forgotten: you can burn the heck out of someone without a single use of profanity.
