  Ever since I heard that Anthony Hopkins accent for Hannibal Lector was inspired by Katherine's, I can't unhear it.

  on an early morning in summer 1978, i was jogging on empty Santa Monica beach, when an elderly woman with large "i-don't-want-to-be-recognized-sunglasses" was jogging up to me. when we came closer i thought to myself, that  i know this woman (she could have been easily be  my grandmother) after we had passed each other i thought: THAT WAS KATHARINE HEPBURN! , and i turned around to look after her. ...and, i don't make this up, she also had turned to look after ME, with her sunglasses lifted. we were both so shocked, that we continued our way... ;-)  i was 22 years old at the time. i will never forget. .... :-)

  The good ol days when the audience listened instead of jumping at the chance to laugh at every word that comes from the guests mouth.

  A friend of my grandmother’s grew up in Hartford and she has a wonderful Katharine Hepburn story about one of her classmates. One of her 8th grade classmates was hitchhiking home (which was done in those days) and he was picked up by Miss Hepburn. He moved to get in the back and she scolded him and pointed to the fur coat in the front seat and said “oh, just throw that old thing in the back and come sit up here in the front with me” <br>I can just hear the words coming out of her mouth, can’t you?

  A wonderful woman who was her own self and cared not a damn for social conventions or affectations.

  She did show herself here to be.....a strong woman very sincere in who she is. Should she ever have had felt &nbsp;guilty of being from a privileged family.? NO. &nbsp;She has that look of beauty that could not be interepitted any other way no matter what age. ...
