I’m one of those few people who never really liked Katharine Hepburn.
I found her voice and mannerisms grating and her raw boned face and prepubescent boy’s body unattractive.

I LOVE Katharine Hepburn, and The Philidelphia Story is one of my favorites.
To: Mich Patriot
It was a really fun movie to watch.
Hated the remake, tho.
To: Homer_J_Simpson
That is such a great reminder to watch a terrific film.
Thanks again.

I have always loved this movie...
We have a local theater here, that shows old movies on a “big screen” for a few weeks every summer. I’ve dragged my two sons to several of them over the years..
The only two I can honestly say they REALLY liked were:
The Philadelphia Story and,
The Maltese Falcon.
