Katharine Hepburn Dvd Collection

Katharine Hepburn fans, I know you’ll want to own the Katharine Hepburn Dvd Collection. The movies you’ll cherish in this collection (Morning Glory / Undercurrent / Sylvia Scarlett / Without Love / Dragon Seed / The Corn Is Green) cover the amazing Katharine Hepburn’s career – from early on to later.

Co-Stars include Cary Grant, Douglas Fairbanks Jr., Adolphe Menjou, and Walter Huston. But, come on,when Lady Hepburn’s on the screen, who notices co-stars? I’ve always been mesmerized with the cool, captivating, effortless, and rapid-fire way she delivered her lines. Totally and completely mesmerized.

The video above is a fantastic “tribute” done by a Katharine Hepburn fan. There are beautiful pictures of Katharine Hepburn that even I’d never seen before – and I honestly thought I’d seen every picture ever taken during Hollywood’s Golden Age.

The music is spot on perfect as well.

Without a doubt, Maureen O’Hara’s one of the most beautiful actresses ever. Absolutely stunning. The hair, the voice, the figure, the face – a place for everything and everything in its place.

I’ve said it before, and I’m bound to say it again – I wish actresses today would try to capture the magic, mystery, class, and sophistication that actresses yesterday possessed. A few, in my opinion, do (Keira Knightley, Angelina Jolie, Natalie Portman, Scarlett Johansson, Hilary Swank, and Reese Witherspoon to name a few.) But for the most part, they’re way too blatant and brassy.

There’s just something different about Maureen O’Hara, Audrey Hepburn, Elizabeth Taylor, Ava Gardner, Grace Kelly, and Rita Hayworth. And that something different is very attractive.

To be sure, the same can be said about actors yesterday vs. actors today! There aren’t very many Clark Galbes, John Wyanes, Cary Grants, or Clint Eastwoods walking around today.

So many girl-y boys! If John Wayne walked through Hollywood today, he wouldn’t know whether to date or punch half the actors.

Eh, too much cranberry sauce – makes me mean.

Summertime, and that means it’s time for the clothes to come off! Unless you’re Cary Grant, apparently. I think the man must’ve slept in his suit. I guess there’s something to be said for leaving things to the imagination. Not much, but something.

More to come soon – along with some hot wallpapers! I’m working on a gorgeous Lana Turner one right now. What a face. She had the Keira Knightley thing going on long before Keira did.

Personally, I haven’t much use for Jane Fonda – but the posters pretty cool in spite of her.

Welcome to a new blog that we hope will be nothing but fun! Please check out our About Page for more info.

I hope to hear from other Hollywood buffs who agree that it was at it’s best Yesterday.
