I loved Barbara Stanwyck and Katharine Hepburn. — © Rosemarie DeWitt
I loved Barbara Stanwyck and Katharine Hepburn.
I love 'Bringing Up Baby.' Anything that Katharine Hepburn's in. I'm committed to the Humphrey Bogart, Cary Grant, Katharine Hepburn era of filmmaking.
When my stepmother had my sister, Katharine Hepburn dropped by to say hello. She came with George Cukor, who wasn't a star, but he was a famous director. He was also my grandmother's best friend, so I knew him well as a kid. But when George showed up with Katharine Hepburn, I was utterly star struck.
It's weird, because American films in the 1930s and '40s, particularly melodramas, were made for woman, from Bette Davis to Joan Crawford to Barbara Stanwyck to Katherine Hepburn, and for some reason we've taken a step backward in this sense.
I love Katharine Hepburn. I love Liesl in 'The Sound of Music.' I love Julie Andrews. I love Audrey Hepburn.
I'm a huge Katharine Hepburn fan.
I loved the masculine style of dressing of Katharine Hepburn, who came from the same town that I came from. I was fascinated by the way she wore trousers. So I think the romanticism of the movies also influenced my life and my interest in fashion greatly.
Back in the days of Barbara Stanwyck and Bette Davis, beauty wasn't the be-all and end-all it is today.
I was lucky enough to make four pictures with Barbara. In the first I turned her in, in the second I killed her, in the third I left her for another woman, and in the fourth I pushed her over a waterfall. The one thing all these pictures had in common was that I fell in love with Barbara Stanwyck - and I did, too.
I wanted to be Katharine Hepburn-ish - there was a bit of nobility about her.
Meryl and Katharine Hepburn are probably the two greatest actresses of this and the last century.
Who is Katharine Hepburn? It took me a long time to create that creature.
[On Katharine Hepburn's stage performance:] She ran the whole gamut of emotions, from A to B.
I once asked Barbara Stanwyck the secret of acting. She said: 'Just be truthful - and if you can fake that, you've got it made'.
I had a small speaking part in 'Coco.' Katharine Hepburn said to me, 'You can act.' Wasn't that nice?
There are lots of actresses I consider to be my icons, from Katharine Hepburn and Grace Kelly to Diane Keaton and Meryl Streep.
I admire those women who really knew who they were and didn't apologize for it. Katharine Hepburn? She was ahead of her time.
