Made in 1957, "Desk Set" has the distinction of being the last comedy that Katherine Hepburn and Spencer Tracy costarred in. It is also one of the first movies (and probably the last) that tackled the subject of computers and unemployment.

Plot: Written by Ruth Gordon and Garson Kanin, Adam's Rib is a peerless comedy predicated on the double standard. Spencer Tracy and Katharine Hepburn play Adam and Amanda Bonner, a husband-and-wife attorney team

Katharine Hepburn: Remembering a Film Icon
Katharine Hepburn had definite ideas about just about everything, including how to arrange logs in a fire. So reveals biographer A. Scott Berg, who received these instructions from her while in her home to conduct an interview: “Not too close to each other. Make them fight for the flame.”

The Immigrant Who Best Captured Christmas -- And America
State of the Union (1948)- In the midst of a wobbly patch in his marriage to wife Mary (Katharine Hepburn), wealthy aviation executive Grant Matthews (Spencer Tracy) strays with the alluring, powerful Kay Thorndike (Angela Lansbury), who's inherited her father's string of newspapers and sees in Grant the ideal "dark horse" candidate for President. Once convinced to take the plunge however, Grant must confront all the double-dealing and dirty compromises that fuel the business of politics. Ultimately this new reality forces a re-assessment of Grant's whole life, professional and personal. Frank Capra, the unparalleled purveyor of populist Americana, sets his sights on the smarmy, corrupt practices that get people elected to high office. Though some will focus on minor dated touches, the film's underlying message still sounds prophetic.
State of the Union: Watch it for yourself and see what you think.

1932 - Katharine Hepburn as Antiope

1932 - Katharine Hepburn as Antiope
in ''The Warrior's Husband'',
Morosco Theatre,
217 West 45th Street

Katharine Hepburn, at 24 years old; started in Broadway theater before making films, her first play was in 1928.
She lived most of her life (60 of her 96 years) in a townhouse on East 49th Street. between 2nd & 3rd Avenues.

The Theatre: New Plays in Manhattan:
Mar. 21, 1932

The curtain rises on the terrace of Hippolyta's Palace in Pontus, capital of the Land of the Amazons.

Antiope

What manner of men these strange Greeks be is soon discovered by the Amazons when Theseus (Colin Keith-Johnston) runs away with Antiope (a blonde thin-cheeked girl named Katharine Hepburn). Theseus also manages to abduct, with Antiope, the Girdle, symbol of feminine supremacy. A sort of home-made and reverse Lysistrata, The Warrior's Husband terminates in a more discreet revel than the authentic Greek revel provided.

Praise, too, for Miss Hepburn as the volatile but vulnerable warrior and for Mr. Johnston is indicated...
