Me
Katharine Hepburn, 1991
The actress turns her unsentimental eye on her own family — a clan of determined women, domineering uncles and inconvenient preachers' ideas — and tells it plain.
Katharine Hepburn
Hepburn won four Best Actress Oscars, a record that still stands, and never once attended the ceremony to collect one.
Feels like family, memory and tenderness.
A man writes a letter that is mostly a knife, and exactly correct about the sums.
Your income has always been ample, and you never ought to have borrowed any money, and Mary Towle did a great wrong in lending you any money. My opinion of you is the same as it always has been—that you are an extravagant, deceitful, dishonest, worthless person. You have squandered thousands of dollars and left your honest debts unpaid. But I do not think you are capable of comprehending the mistakes that you have made. Now that you are paying up Mary Towle, how would it do to pay the various other accounts that you owe?
