Here's the thing about Katharine Hepburn, something that makes her great in a way that's usually overlooked. Three of the greatest male stars of all time -- Jimmy Stewart, Humphrey Bogart, and Henry Fonda -- all won just one Academy Award. And each of them were playing with Hepburn as their female lead. She brought their considerable talents the same way she brought out our appreciation for her. What a phenomenal woman she was.

WaIter White Well, yeah I agree partially. Still, though. I'm saddened by the fact that we've no longer retained culture through the classic art forms: television, film, music, novels. To me, technology is a tool as opposed to an art (and thus culture). I understand that there are few exceptions of young people who are trailblazers in today's high culture. But it seems like they're few and far between. Our country feels neutered in terms of culture. I'm very aware of the massive artistic revolution that's present in young Americans. But sometimes it feels phony to me. It feels self conscious instead of seamless. But even the small things we've seemed to lose. Our sense of dress, manners, hospitality, hard work ethic. These things are still there and being taught, sure. But they're seemingly becoming more exclusive for those who can afford those luxuries. The rest, in my opinion, seem to be spoonfed this generic, standardized, almost sterile culture. You're probably right, though. I shouldn't be focusing on TV and other main forms of "culture" when making an evaluation. But the only thing that irks me is that even today's "mainstream" forms of culture pale in comparison to yesteryear's "mainstream" forms of culture.

@waiterwhite198

9 жыл бұрын

***** Read your comment all the way through and figured I'd reply with a thought provoking rant. "To me, technology is a tool as opposed to an art" I don't get this statement because it insinuates that the internet is what is being presented as the art? The internet is the tool & platform that people utilize to create and distribute art. Just as they used the camera as the tool to film this movie you love. Technology has always been the "thing" to get us to the "great thing". Nothing has changed there except it's MORE accessible and you DON'T have to afford some luxury like in the old era. If you think great film making is gone then you're not looking in the right places. First thing is that most great film has simply transitioned into great television. Amazing performances aren't taking place on the big screen anymore. It''s all in the comfort of your home. Amazing episodic serialized programs with the most realistic performances like Breaking Bad and Walking Dead. If you love classics then check out Mad Men as it's a great TV series that is shot like a classic film. This stuff rivals anything I've seen in the early 1900s. Let's face it the acting in these old films is mostly horrible. Your issue is that you're looking through rose colored glasses due to nostalgia. Whereas your biased views are more about the happy giddy childhood memories that these films remind you of, more so than the actual program itself. Nostalgia is the BANE of our existence as it chains us to the past. We spend so much time trying to chase that feeling of our revisionist history that we lose opportunities to create actual happy memories TODAY. Trust me... we all do it!! Nostalgia has a funny way of making you think your childhood was all about being a kid and laying on the floor watching Katharine Hepburn with a smile on your face. When in reality your brain is conveniently leaving out all the bad memories of childhood. Just because something has a transatlantic accent doesn't make it classy. This was simply an accent to bridge the gap between America & Europe so they would THINK we were classy like them. Although Hepburn is a classic to remember, this isn't the case with a lot of movies from that time and this era was filled with negative things. You want it to go back to a world of giant corporate industries completely screwing actors, musicians, and artists out of their hard earned money? The early 1900s was not glorious class like you think. In fact it was wrought in horrible racism and unjust contracts and/or laws. Artists are still doing everything they did before, but with the internet they have way more access to people than ever before. Self made artists. The struggling artist can now be recognized for their great work. The struggling film makers can now reach millions of people on KZread. Now everyone finally has the chance to be an artist and have it MATTER. Your other comment about "manners, hospitality, and work ethic" being something you either can or can't "afford" doesn't make much sense either. These are traits that any human can have and many do to this day. None of this has changed and humans have not changed in this specific regard since the dawn of time. I see polite, hard working, and hospitable people on a daily basis (myself included). You're clearly just surrounding yourself with negativity or live in an area with a large percentage of assholes. Open your mind more!!!

Philadelphia Story has remained my favourite movie for forty years. I was not born when it was made but I have loved this movie since I first saw it in the early seventies. Cary Grant, Katharine Hepburn and James Stewart are top notch. I could watch this movie forever and a day...

She was such an amazing actress, that someone won an Oscar for playing her. :P

Between the story, the screen writing, the directing and the quality of the actors I don't believe there was a better movie ever made.

The women of this era were so strong. The 1950s and 60s sunk women into objectification and something to be looked at.

She was really beautiful, but was so talented and had such presence, that you almost didn’t notice her beauty.

That's the fun thing about learning a new language. I'm a native English speaker, and I want to learn German, and I'm going specifically for the Viennese accent/dialect.

I love the transatlantic accent so much!!! I'm pretty sure the first official time I heard it like properly was gone with the wind, ahhh I wish people still talked like that. It just seems so sophisticated, and charming. Now we got roadmen (uk), and chavs 😂 if anyone doesn't know what that is, you could put that online and see what they sound like.

@hanks864 Her accent is colloquially called the Locust Valley Lockjaw. It used to be the upper-class American accent associated with elite residents of NY metropolitan area. President Roosevelt and Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis also spoke with this accent.

Americans sounded slightly British

You're both wrong, early modern english had most in common with the west country accent, spoken in the south west of england, and East Anglian (spoken in the outskirts of east anglia). North eastern American / new england (especially maine) shares the most similarities compared to any other american accent. Even more than those, the maritime accents spoken on the edges of Canada are even more alike. Just because you speak with rhoticity really doesn't mean shit, the different accents spoken in the uk are more representative of older english. Besides, that's only in comparison with an 17th-18th century southern english accent, even back then they spoke differently in the north so northern-english english might have kept more of it's own original sound. In fact, Scots english has probably changed the least over the years.

It's called Transatlantic accent.

such cool accents

I just thought that was how they spoke back then, and that it was never an actual accent from back then. I've heard it many times (my aunts and uncles brought me up with the classics so I am very familiar with the way they speak).

I LOVE THE ACCENT
