I guess that Katharine Hepburn and Spencer Tracy did several movies together as well as having a relationship that spans years up until this death in 1967.
This movie is one of the best, I think. It is about a journalist who comes to a small time to do a piece on a national hero who recently died. It is a good mystery as to what happened. But as the journalist learns about this man he also falls for his wife.
This movie also does a very good job of explaining why people fallow and admire fascists. Power and money isn't all of it. Sometimes money just isn't enough.

I'm not a big fan of hers but she is a great actress.

@celticeagle I love a lot of the older actresses like Katherine Hepburn - especially when she was older, Katherine Ross, Lauren Becall, Loretta Young, Rita Hayworth, Vivien Leigh, Betty White, Doris Day, Dyan Cannon..so many that were fantastic.

Money is not enough to be happy even though not having money to pay bills is a source of stress.

I've never heard of this one either. Did you see Guess Who's Coming to Dinner? I've seen it several times.

Oh, yes. Not really into such silliness. I like more dramatic ones.
