A shot from Adam’s Rib (1949), one of nine movies that Katherine Hepburn (1907-2003) made with her co-star here, Spencer Tracy (1900-1967), who was also her real-life romantic partner. She was from an affluent Connecticut family.
"I have always thought that marriage was a funny sort of institution. Sometimes I wonder if men and women really suit each other at all. It's inevitable that they should come together now and again, but how well suited are they to living in the same house? Perhaps they should live next door and visit every now and then."
— Katherine Hepburn
