a legend, a star, and above all the best actress, she played every facet in acting -drama,love stories, comedy, suspense, and period pieces, she fit and made everything she did work and entertaining, not many actresses can do that...she will be missed and remembered in her fantastic body of work that she left us....
Ms. Hepburn was the best actress of all times, Meryl Streep is more versatile, but Hepburn had elegance and so much glamour, she always will be the best....................
I had forgotten about this Oscar Awards tribute in honor of Kate. I think many of her fans would agree with me that no other role that she had undertaken could ever surpass her magnificent talent in The Lion In Winter. She was Eleanor!!!!!!!
The single greatest actress in Hollywood history. They should have had Cate Blanchett present the tribute! She and Meryl are the only ones that even come close to matching the Great Kate.
Meryl Streep imo (and I know a lot will disagree) owes her reputation to fact that she's the Rich Little of actresses. She's basically a mimic. I have always found her so overrated.
Funny how Katharine and Daniel Day Lewis are both the most awarded Oscar actors in a lead role (Kat-4x and Dan-3x) and maintains are very private life.
Meryl Streep: Super Saiyan God (Being practical, careful and calculator while acting) Katharine Hepburn: Ultra instinct (Not thinking while acting... Feel your character's emotions)
Oh geez, Kate didn't hate Meryl Streep. Kate think Streep's acting is too mechanical, that's all. It actually reminds me of when she told Anthony Hopkins, her co-star in The Lion in Winter, to not think and just do (or something like that).
There will never be another like her - a true legend and THE greatest actress ever! 💞💞 My daughter is named for her - born just 5 months after Katharine died.
a patrician, a sophisticate, an iconoclast!... &, along w/ Vivien Leigh, simply the GREATEST actress in the history of CINEMA...!! & so VERY deservedly & humbly paid tribute 2 in that montage @ her passing! Thank You & so thoughtful, AMPAS!
The Great Kate won four Oscars but none of them were for her best performances. She could just have handily been awarded for "Alice Adams", "Holiday", "The African Queen", "Summertime" and, especially, "A Long Day's Journey Into Night".
I sure as hell hope there are many tears by the end of this clip. If you don't "feel" anything, you're being manipulated into a robot. Katherine Hepburn was an incredible woman & actress.
@1simaddict1 I loved "The Aviator", I actually think it's Cate Blanchett's third best role overall, after Elizabeth and Bob Dylan, of course. But despite not looking EXACTLY like Hepburn, she pulled off a masterclass performance. She truly is the new Hepburn, in my view. I wonder what Hepburn thought of Blanchett, I guess Blanchett's career took off in earnest after Hepburn's death, but it's very likely Hepburn might have seen "Elizabeth", and all the roles leading up to Lord of the Rings.
@jckfmsincty No, I do think the Oscar for Golden Pond and especially the one for Lion In Winter were deserved. Her performance in Lion in Winter, to me, is the best female performance recorded on film. But I do agree her first two should rather have been for any of the films you mentioned. "Alice Adams" and "Summertime" being my personal picks :)
I tend to agree with you about the term "greatest". I admire Katharine Hepburn for her authentic personality. She made being unconventional acceptable and appealing, not to mention attractive. That is why I admire her so much. Lots of people buck the system but they just come off as arrogant and disrespectful of the opportunities they've been given. She was an individual and a character. It's very rare to see both qualities in one person. That's what made her so memorable in my opinion.
Certa vez me perguntaram o que é cinema .. respondi:não sei...porque não teria a pretensão de responder tal pergunta...mas tem uma cena em adivinhe quem vem para jantar na qual Katharine Hepburn está preocupada com a felicidade da sua filha( e de Spencer Tracy) então reflete sobre a situação ...a câmera pega a sua expressão facial ...a sua interiorização... talvez essa cena tenha sido essencial para o seu prêmio de melhor atriz do ano (1967) e então...acredito que isto é cinema...
appropriate to have Julia Roberts do this... Kate said of the new crop of stars that many didn't seem to have star quality, but she felt Julia had it in spades.
Meryl Streep and Katharine Hepburn, the two most amazing performers to come out of Hollywood. The difference is Hepburn was the best in the history of cinema when it came to drama, but Streep could do all genres better then most of Hollywood put together. And why do the tributes never get standing ovations! She never received an honorary Oscar and never received a standing ovation for any of her wins, it's simply not fair, and she has never gotten the acclaim she so richly deserves.
He hated Meryl because she's a charector actress. Kate came up in a time where charector acting was considered sub par, you were expected to hone your image on screen and make that for into whatever part you were doing as opposed to now where you're heralded for being able to become anyone.
I agree ,Katharine Hepburn, was one of the greatest actress of all time. But Meryl Streep already has 3 Oscars, and still going strong, she mite tie her.
She should have won Oscars for Alice Adams, The Philadelphia Story and Summertime !! Not to mention Long Days Journey into Night!! In my opinion her greatest achievement.
They had Julia Roberts present this award because Katharine Hepburn loved Julia Roberts, thought she was very talented and said so more than once. When Audrey Hepburn was given a Lifetime Achievement award in 1994 she sent Julia to accept on her behalf because she too loved Julia, thought she was very talented and would be a big star. You mad?
She NEVER said that she did not care about the ceremony . She just didn't know how to behave in those situation when she would have lost. And as for your research Jane Fonda and Meryl Streep cam e a LONG time after she had won at least Academy Awards . She was fully comfortable with who she was. And as for for her hating Jane Fonda, that was her point of view which she was entitled . Most men still hate their wives working and that's what she was pointing out.
@pcalinescu I keep meaning to watch the Aviator......Did you see it? Was it good? I haven't really seen and Cate Blanchett movies and not much of a Meryl fan because I haven't seen many of her movies either. But I do love Death becomes her.
Interesting in that there were 12 movie clips with dialogue spoken by Hepburn in the tribute. She received 12 oscar nominations, but one nominated performance 1935's "Alice Adams" was missing from the clips, instead they had a clip from "Rooster Cogurn"...very odd since all other 11 clips came from nominated performances. Even if for some reason "Alice Adams" was unavailable because of copyright or what not I think they could have found a better film then "Rooster Cogburn" to have put in there. "Stage Door", "Bringing Up Baby", "Little Women", "Holiday", "Adam's Rib", "Pat and Mike"...so on and so on...all better choices than "Rooster Cogburn" for crying out loud!
@NummiSoldier I'm not sure the title, but the words are, "It's a gift to be simple, it's a gift to be free. It's a gift to come down where you ought to be...To be in the valley of love and delight." It might be, "In The Valley Of Love And Delight."
It is the very last moments of Gotterdammerung. Siegfried is dead. The Rhinegold has been returned to the Rhinemaidens. Brunhilde, whose last act has been to set fire to Valhalla, has thrown herself on the Funeral Pyre. The 'Age of the God's' is over, but this beautiful music lets us know that the Age of Man is now upon us.
Agreed. While I love Streep, she would never have been a star in Hepburn's era. She would have been an Irene Dunne, Jean Arthur, or Luise Rainer. Hollywood just wasn't making those kinds of movies back then that would have highlighted Streep's gifts.
Well oscars usually seems unfair eg cate blanchet deserves ist oscar for elizabeth and then aviator was supporting which was right Nd another for supporting in role of bob dylan portyl of a man
@Jacksofhearts Yep, Kate would definitely have disapproved of Meryl... dunno why she disliked her so much - personally i think meryl's the second greatest actress after Hepburn. And Blanchett the only current actress with real odds of being in the same category as those two :)
Their video is beautiful and I have included it in the "Álbum de las Estrellas de Cine", thank you to share it, it can look for it in Internet writing "Banco de Cine" or "Tribute Actress Famous" or "Álbum de las Estrellas de Cine" and look for in the alphabet of the ALBUM for the initial letter of the star of this videotape K KA nº 01
Up in it paginates it where their video is there is a connection to "Listado de Honor" make click and once inside of it pulses in the LISTING of HONOR of the center, the name of its CHANNEL is already logged, congratulation and thank you.
@lolaalex59 No. You're wrong. I listened to Julia and it sounds nothing like it. I know "In The Valley..." I sang it at school, and was singing it along with this clip, note by note.
No it's people like you with bad grammar who end up commenting on a video ABOUT Katharine Hepburn. She never said that she was always right . She merely had an opinion just like you have. And as for her acting abilities suffering from her views., you are just ill informed about her great actress she was. Ugh.

The Philadelphia Story was one of her best. That was real Hollywood.
"Southbend, sounds like dancing doesn't it?"
What a career! 4 Academy Awards for Best Actress with 12 nominations! More than any other actress in history! You go Kate!!! 😘
Topped only by Meryl Streep!
@@Elizabeththegreatest Streep has 2 Best Actress Oscars & 1 Best supporting Actress.
Meryl Streep beat her in terms of nominations, but no one has beaten her in terms of numbers of oscars won!
She didnt go to any of it the real goat
@@user-gi8pk9uc7q Kate just never bothered to collect hers.
A godess. Seriously, what an elegant, classy and talented actress she was. Her legacy will be remembered.
The Queen of Hollywood cinema.. Whatever film she acted.. she got the credit..and easily overshadowed the Heroes of that film...
“I could PEEL you like a PEAR and GOD HIMSELF would call it JUSTICE”
Chills. Just, all the chills.
Nobody could make venemous dialogue sting like kate
The Lion in Winter.
Ms. Hepburn was related to Eleanor of Aquitaine, through her marriage to both Louis II AND Henry II!
"That's my good fortune. I know enough about men to have steered clear of them,"
Love, love, LOVE that line.
@Noo Noo even heterosexual women share this sentiment lmao
I didn’t,lol,& here I’m am about ready to croak & never had an ounce of her wisdom!
What a comfort how she had a long, healthy and wonderful life
What a wonderful Tribute to a amazing woman.
a legend, a star, and above all the best actress, she played every facet in acting -drama,love stories, comedy, suspense, and period pieces, she fit and made everything she did work and entertaining, not many actresses can do that...she will be missed and remembered in her fantastic body of work that she left us....
R.I.P. Katharine Hepburn1907 - 2003
Cate Blanchett absolutely nailed her in The Aviator
Cate Blanchett is the best thing ever
You are absolutely right
It's a shame that The Aviator smeared the reputation of Hepburn's family.
she was the greatest ever. none could catch up with her
also bette davis
She deserves more than 4 oscars atleast record of six ,one for the philadephia story and other for alice adam's or adam's rib
Ms. Hepburn was the best actress of all times, Meryl Streep is more versatile, but Hepburn had elegance and so much glamour, she always will be the best....................
Greatest actress of all time. she should win oscar 10 times or more.
An intelligent, moral and talented woman, uncommonly found represented in Hollywood and the public eye.
My all time favorite actress. She is always a wonder to watch.
I had forgotten about this Oscar Awards tribute in honor of Kate. I think many of her fans would agree with me that no other role that she had undertaken could ever surpass her magnificent talent in The Lion In Winter. She was Eleanor!!!!!!!
Spencer Tracy was a doll.
Astonishing woman, astonishing actress, astonishing career. No one comes even close to being as unique.
Iconic through History most actresses will fade away
Lion in winter was astounding acting.
GOD! she was the most beautiful creature on the planet. And all these years later still.
Haha idk about that? You're saying she was the most beautiful woman as an old lady?
Even how old a person is.. She is still beautiful!
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder!
The single greatest actress in Hollywood history. They should have had Cate Blanchett present the tribute! She and Meryl are the only ones that even come close to matching the Great Kate.
and Bette Davis well both tie
well also I think Julia is like her as they both dominated the rom com genre in their prime
Meryl Streep imo (and I know a lot will disagree) owes her reputation to fact that she's the Rich Little of actresses. She's basically a mimic. I have always found her so overrated.
What about jodie foster?
I think the person who done the tribute should have been Lauren Becall since she and Hepburn were close friends
Funny how Katharine and Daniel Day Lewis are both the most awarded Oscar actors in a lead role (Kat-4x and Dan-3x) and maintains are very private life.
One of the all time best. Thanks for posting this.
There's a shot early in this clip--Clint Eastwood and his late Mom. Priceless.
Meryl Streep: Super Saiyan God (Being practical, careful and calculator while acting)
Katharine Hepburn: Ultra instinct (Not thinking while acting... Feel your character's emotions)
I love Meryl Streep, but Kathraine Hepburn is magnificence personified.
Hepburn and Brando hated each other but they're still my two idols... Sad we lost'em within a year
Oh geez, Kate didn't hate Meryl Streep. Kate think Streep's acting is too mechanical, that's all. It actually reminds me of when she told Anthony Hopkins, her co-star in The Lion in Winter, to not think and just do (or something like that).
There will never be another like her - a true legend and THE greatest actress ever! 💞💞 My daughter is named for her - born just 5 months after Katharine died.
she was classically beautiful and very talented 😍 what an elegant actress back in the days 💕
@1simaddict1 I like to think of Blanchett's Oscar as Hepburn's 5th Oscar really.
a patrician, a sophisticate, an iconoclast!...
&, along w/ Vivien Leigh, simply the GREATEST actress in the history of CINEMA...!!
& so VERY deservedly & humbly paid tribute 2 in that montage @ her passing!
Thank You & so thoughtful, AMPAS!
What a wonderful, beautiful and spunky lady indeed.....
The Great Kate won four Oscars but none of them were for her best performances. She could just have handily been awarded for "Alice Adams", "Holiday", "The African Queen", "Summertime" and, especially, "A Long Day's Journey Into Night".
She was without question a pioneer!
I sure as hell hope there are many tears by the end of this clip. If you don't "feel" anything, you're being manipulated into a robot. Katherine Hepburn was an incredible woman & actress.
Oh fuck, i am crying so hard. I love you Kate, forever.
She's voice is perfect.
What an amazing woman.
A pioneer of acting 💙💙 such a class act
@TheHachmom -- I would have had Meryl Streep do it, she has the same calibure. Julia is a mere fledgling to
introduce a legend like Ms. Hepburn.
@1simaddict1 I loved "The Aviator", I actually think it's Cate Blanchett's third best role overall, after Elizabeth and Bob Dylan, of course. But despite not looking EXACTLY like Hepburn, she pulled off a masterclass performance. She truly is the new Hepburn, in my view. I wonder what Hepburn thought of Blanchett, I guess Blanchett's career took off in earnest after Hepburn's death, but it's very likely Hepburn might have seen "Elizabeth", and all the roles leading up to Lord of the Rings.
She got a standing ovation every single time she showed up at the ceremony to receive one.
She only attended the Oscar's ceremony once, and it was to pay tribute to a friend.
I loved her! Thinking of you Mrs. Hepburn.
@jckfmsincty No, I do think the Oscar for Golden Pond and especially the one for Lion In Winter were deserved. Her performance in Lion in Winter, to me, is the best female performance recorded on film. But I do agree her first two should rather have been for any of the films you mentioned.

Would've been cooler if Cate Blanchett presented the award. She played Kate afterall. (even won an Oscar for it)
@AdArmand That line is, hands down, the very highlight of her career.
Simply sublime
Thanks! :D
appropriate to have Julia Roberts do this... Kate said of the new crop of stars that many didn't seem to have star quality, but she felt Julia had it in spades.
Great in lion in winter

Glenn Close also!!
Watch Bringing up baby, Katharine not only did drama. And she is the best for so long.
He hated Meryl because she's a charector actress. Kate came up in a time where charector acting was considered sub par, you were expected to hone your image on screen and make that for into whatever part you were doing as opposed to now where you're heralded for being able to become anyone.
I loved her dearly!
I COULDN'T AGREE MORE
Meryl Streep is never going to catch her with her Oscars NEVER!!!
I agree ,Katharine Hepburn, was one of the greatest actress of all time. But Meryl Streep already has 3 Oscars, and still going strong, she mite tie her.
Sophie Aldaide I think Meryl and Daniel Day-Lewis will probably get 4 Oscars by the end of their careers.
Myra H I would love to see that happen :)
Your original comment implies otherwise but okay.
Myra H Well i don't think that it's going to happen so that is why i would find it quite funny!
She should have won Oscars for Alice Adams, The Philadelphia Story and Summertime !! Not to mention Long Days Journey into Night!! In my opinion her greatest achievement.
Love Julia too
Did anyone recognize that it was The Beatle's Julia being played just after Billy Crystal introduced Julia Roberts.
i didn't. Thank u!!
Really Cool!👌
They had Julia Roberts present this award because Katharine Hepburn loved Julia Roberts, thought she was very talented and said so more than once.

Adams Rib is classic.
katharine + spencer = forever
Actually, Katharine Hepburn liked Julia Roberts. She saw Mystic Pizza in the late 80s and thought that Roberts had star potential.
@eneyy101 Remember, she NEVER went to ceremonies to collect any of her her 4 Academy Awards, and kept them in cupboards and closets etc.
what song is that playing at the beginning of the tribute?
It is the very last moments of Gotterdammerung.
Siegfried is dead. The Rhinegold has been returned to the Rhinemaidens. Brunhilde, whose last act has been to set fire to Valhalla, has thrown herself on the Funeral Pyre. The 'Age of the God's' is over, but this beautiful music lets us know that the Age of Man is now upon us.
Does anybody know which Aaron Copland song they have used in this and what movie the clip at 5:04 to 5:09 is from?
Great
I've been dying to know that song aswell. :/
They could’ve given the tribute earlier when she was alive
What made her great was her refusal to conform.
@pcalinescu Funny you should say that because Katharine Hepburn did not like Meryl. Maybe that's why they didnt use her.
@pcalinescu Actually, they chose the right person. In her biography written by Scott Berg, she says that Julia was the only star out there.
Agreed. While I love Streep, she would never have been a star in Hepburn's era. She would have been an Irene Dunne, Jean Arthur, or Luise Rainer. Hollywood just wasn't making those kinds of movies back then that would have highlighted Streep's gifts.
There will never be another one like Kate. Ever.
Well oscars usually seems unfair eg cate blanchet deserves ist oscar for elizabeth and then aviator was supporting which was right Nd another for supporting in role of bob dylan portyl of a man
A leyend
I read that Katharine said that Meryl was very pretentious and she didn't liked her voice tone...
Duh. But the Meryl Streep cackle is one of it's kind.
What is the music at the end of the video?
It's the end of the opera Gotterdamerung by Richard Wagner.
what song is that?
She together with Greta Garbo are the best actress of the cinema
@Jacksofhearts Yep, Kate would definitely have disapproved of Meryl... dunno why she disliked her so much - personally i think meryl's the second greatest actress after Hepburn. And Blanchett the only current actress with real odds of being in the same category as those two :)
Petru Calinescu did she speak ill of Meryl that offen?
Their video is beautiful and I have included it in the "Álbum de las Estrellas de Cine", thank you to share it, it can look for it in Internet writing "Banco de Cine" or "Tribute Actress Famous" or "Álbum de las Estrellas de Cine" and look for in the alphabet of the ALBUM for the initial letter of the star of this videotape K KA nº 01
