Inhalt
On screen she played society girls, Spencer Tracy's sidekick, lionesses in winter. But the best character Katharine Hepburn ever created was Katharine Hepburn: a Connecticut Yankee, outspoken and elegant, bristling at Hollywood glitter. Hepburn won her 4th Oscar aged 74 and across seven decades in the public eye, she was a cut above the usual screen queen. Now, her biographer (author of »The Men from the Boys« and »Where the Boys Are«) looks beyond the legend to consider apart the life and the persona of Katharine Hepburn, from her movies, her loves, her bisexuality and her extraordinary life in the golden age of film-making. This interpretation also shatters the legend of her romance with Spencer Tracy -instead, Mann establishes a pattern of relationships in which the sex-averse Hepburn played emotional caretaker to a series of alcoholic, closeted homosexuals that, in addition to Tracy, included director John Ford.
