"I don't feel like anyone really feels like anything." PURE GOLD.

40 years later and her words are still as wise and relevant.

This woman was a force of nature. Here's to nearly a century of Katharine Hepburn

I love her accent. It's so "classic Hollywood". You can tell she belongs to the first half of the 20th century.

She aged very great. She was fascinating and unique and kept the same opinions until she died in 2003. We need more people like Hepburn.

Love her to pieces! "I feel fine! If you don't ask for details!" Great answer.

Her forceful honesty is remarkable! Poor Morley is trying to say how laudable old age is and she rightly points out how the elderly are dumped into homes. She is one person who had the blessings of a strong family and wealth, able to avoid that anonymous death faced by many.

Katharine Hepburn was blunt and candid and I love her for that.

Both Hepburns are respectable. They are both my inspirations.

"I feel fine if you don't ask for details." Love it!

Yes Katharine Hepburn belongs to a time where the ART OF BEAUTY was important. The films were beautifully done with incredible balanced artistic scripts.

I could listen to her speak all day. An amazing person brimming with wonderful stories. Besides, she has a wonderful, sparkling New England accent, a joy to hear.

"Yes my children are all very shy. They don't go to parties unless they're sure they'll be the bride or the corpse."

Katharine Hepburn was always so candid and honest; I always admired her, along with Bette Davis and Elizabeth Taylor, and the reasons why these three actresses were among my favorites had to do not only with their remarkable talents, but their forthrightness...they said what they wanted to say, and if somebody didn't like it, too damn bad!!! I love it!!!

And to think that she had one more Oscar to win at this point.

She is too too right about how older people when seen as a bother are just put into a nursing home and for the most part forgotten about and that is indeed a sad sad thing to say about how our society is being now.....

In these 5 minutes she's more honest and fascinating than most in a day of conversation

I love how blunt she is. She tells it like it is. And I love her accent! It's fun imitating her accent. She's lovely!

She looks amazing, I believe she aged quite well and her outgoing athletic look about life is refreshing for an actress. She was a tough one and I doubt anyone could compare to her today. I love that she didn't really go along with the "Glamour Girl" look during the studio system era and that she did her own thing. She's a great ideal for an independent woman.

I fucking love her, she is a true idol. Listen to common sense, that's all she's saying.

I love this woman. She will be missed. When she died an era of hollywood and class ended.

Candid, indeed, but also very intelligent and wise. No wonder she bent Hollywood to her will. I just watched ''The Philadelphia Story'' and it takes less than 5 minutes to see what a great actress she was. R.I.P. Katharine Hepburn

i love her, she is soo hilarious, honest, staright forward, kind and just sweet.

It is comforting to know that Kate Hepburn and I have one thing in common- we both feel like if we're not careful the world will find out we are a bore. Amazing to think that even a legend has the same insecurities as mere mortals. What a fascinating person she was... just by being herself.

There was a woman I worked for as a landscaper, whose voice completely represented this incredible woman... she said to me in Katharine's trembling voice, you must get out of that tree..

Omg, she's right on about the aged and movies! But you notice he changes the subject, no one wants to talk about what happens to old people but I'm sure he found out to a certain degree. If she ever saw the movies today shed drop dead on the spot!

Strong heart, strong set of beliefs, and a solid head on her shoulders. Sounds like a very strong person to me. Nothing fake about her. I like that.

She may have thought it was cheap of her to not go to the Academy Awards. I think it was pretty damn cool of her.

There are 2 legends for me... the 2 Hepburns... Audrey Hepburn and Katharine Hepburn... Both were a class in their own and above the rest... Truly inspirational ladies... Such a blessing that we had them!

She just be chilling! Lol that's Katherine Hepburn for you!

I don't think any actor/actress today could be as honest, direct, and frank as Katherine is here. And although this fear of being honest could be because of the increasing lack of privacy experienced by said actors/actresses, or the much faster rate at which statements they make are spread and criticized today, I'd love to watch an interview with an actress in which she has the courage to speak her mind and say something like "Aging is horrible, just kills us when it's time".

She was so right & so brave & so right & so brave... What a character, what an artist, what a woman!

Katharine Hepburn, was a FAB Actress or I'd rather say THE ACTRESS. Her movies are all full of meaning, and they are a delight to watch. I love her, and her acting. Katharine the most GREAT!

Utterly Magnificent. I love her attitude about just everything. Her humility and honesty is very refreshing. I think she's inargueably, one of the most iconic figures in cinema.

This is just great! Thank you loads for uploading this!! She was the best, no argument.

Katharine The Greatest!

They don't make them like that any more.

So unafraid of what others thought. What a remarkable woman.

I have always so admired and loved this beautiful, in so many ways, woman.

If only celebrity or people in general were still this humble and truthful.

Her voice is perfection.

The greatest American Actress ever. Sorry Meryl!

she was truly unique!

I could honestly watch her interviews all the livelong day💖💕💞😊...what wisdom and compassion, and just friendliness...Love Kate and wonder if she and Bette Davis were friends.

She was her own person. That’s wisdom and strength. ♥️

A woman who has earned her power.

"But this becomes the style. It doesn't mean much" is a great point

Honest, direct, humble, and strong! She is the only star who dont sugar coat her personnality. What you see it what you get. She did not take too seriously this legend statut and was a real human being.

Love Kate. She's my icon, a true legend and my favorite actress.

her voice.... i just love that voice

She's an amazing actress. Always love her movies. What I admire about her, she's not Hollywood. She also does Broadway. I like the fact she does her own housework and gardening.

She's BEAUTIFUL!!! Awesome woman..I remember when she died :(

What a brilliant woman. I think it says something that her female peers, that is to say, other actresses, women like Lauren Bacall, Bette Davis, Joan Crawford, Vivien Leigh, judy Garland, Marlene Dietrich, Judy Holliday, Tallulah Bankhead are all on record as absolutely adoring her. Find me another actress who was so universally admired by her peers as this one was. That says something about her character right there.

The last time I saw her I was a child, and I always loved her and her movies. Now in the middle of my life, I see how unbelievably fabulous of a person she really was, and how much I wish she was around now. ❤❤❤

The greatest actress on screen. The greatest off all. And a fascinating and remarkable woman. Love Kate. xoxo ❤

Its so refreshing to hear an actor speaking honestly rather then rambling on with useless platitudes like they do today. RIP Miss Hepburn.

Katherine Hepburn...Wonderful actress, and a wonderful lady..simply the best! thanks for sharing :-))

I love her final statement about what her life could have been had she not pursued acting ;)

Legend & full of Class always!

Wonderful human being. We need more people like her in this world!

classic..she spoke her mind, god bless her

loved her in golden pond...surely gonna c more of her movies!

Katherine is spot on about today's movies.

Goodbye, Morley. You were one of the best.

Kate (Katherine) Mulgrew is remarkably similar to Katharine Hepburn in voice, facial structure, and body language. O.o

wow. that was fabulous.

Man, they don't make em like Kate any more! What a star!

She was ahead of her time.

Wow! What a true personality. Refreshing compared to all the air-head actresses of today. Thanks for posting.

Wow. I just came here to show someone how she sounds compared to snl's Wiig. I can say, I am now more impressed by this Legend. I was unaware how opinionated and how stealthy she was. She doesn't need to cuss to get her mind across. Class and strength......…..this is K. Hepburn.

A true legend to the end. Always admired her honesty. She certainly WAS NOT a bullshitter! (Old Australian saying). Strong woman who wasn't afraid to voice her opinions and lived life her own way. Similar to the great Lauren Bacall. Women of real substance!

I absolutely adore her.

Fascinating woman. I think she was one of our best.

one hundred percent on the money, everything she states. I'm in total agreement

Loved hearing her talk about life-anything-she was great

I'm named after her! I should a picture of her when she was younger to my friend and she said that I almost look like her!

Everything she is saying is nothing but the truth that nobody wants to hear. Everyone is so politically correct nowadays for fear of offending anyone. I love how people were back in the day, so raw and honest.

what a fearless lady. And I mean "lady" in the true sense. Intellectual, beautiful, free and combative. None were her equal in her day and the torch is passed to whom? A challenge to all human beings: Katherine Hepburn! Listen to the audio content only of this recording and I challenge anyone to guess her age. She sounds like she's in her 30s, in spirit.

I love her

I just absolutely adore her!

absoloutly love her. real icon :)

thats a positive way to deal with advertisements....I like your way of thinking :)

She was THE actress of the 20'th century. Unlike most others her career spanned over 50 years and she remained tremendously respected throughout her life. Does anybody know if there's some truth in the rumor that she thought that Meryl Streep is nowhere near one of the all time great actresses?

@lorrainewands And that was 1979, can you imagine what she would think of movies today? I am hearing her say "total schlock!"

I had just turned 2 yrs they day before..this interview.

I love her honesty

She's 💯 right. I wouldn't have thought so but now that I'm old, wow, this is the truth. She was a renegade for her time. Or any time, really. I wish I had half her energy & confidence. And that CT. accent, which is imminently listenable.

I really Admired her. She’s my Most Favorite Actress.

I'm a little reluctant to love Katherine Hepburn, because I am rigidly on team Bette Davis, but then I see this little snippet of an interview and I'm head over heels.

She looks more beautiful in that one shot than she ever did i nher entire life. Truly. SHe is so happy with being praised like that. it\s like shes finally allowed herself to be proud. She isnt gloating like it was a fight, but shes smirking in a way thats like "I did it.. I really did it didn't I." :)

Cool Kate!!!

THANK YOU! EXACTLY!!

I love her......How honest and tells how it is.....Just like Bette Davis......They just do nit make them like them anymore......Just don't.

So earthy. So real and grounded.

Love her!

She was so beautiful all the way to the end, there's nothing more attractive than a woman who's confident at any age

Angry attitude is a method of defense. I loved her!!!

fascinating

she is completely fabulous.

her warble is fantastic
