Katharine Hepburn's grasp and control of this role is perfect - so perfect that it has no trace. The maturity of an actor will be felt by all audiences who have seen the actor's performance in his youth. If this is an actress named Katharine Hepburn and she was amazing in her youth, then we can only keep lamenting that the years have given her more power than anyone else. Saw Audrey Hepburn's great performance, saw Elizabeth Taylor's great performance, saw Joan Fontaine's great performance, saw Harvey Lander, Grace Kelly, Catherine Deneuve, Maggie Smith, Juliette Binoche, Emma Thompson, Cate Blanchett...but Katharine Hepburn was always out of the group; even Streep.
