US Import Katharine Hepburn made her stunning screen debut as John Barrymore's daughter in 1932's A Bill of Divorcement. In Christopher Strong, Hepburn's second film and first sta r vehicle, the intelligent, liberated and unconventionally beautiful actress chose to play an intelligent, liberated and unconventionally beautiful aviatrix who soars into a torrid affair (with Colin Clive as a fellow aristocrat)…and crashes into unendurable heartbreak. The melodramatic story is as much keen-edged steel as tears, thanks to Hepburn's gutsy performance and to the taut direction of Dorothy Arzner, classic Hollywood's only major female director. Among the film's highlights: Hepburn simply astonishing in silvery lamé heading to a costume ball as the world's most glamorous moth!Special Features and Technical Specs: NEW 4K RESTORATION OF THE FILM FROM THE ORIGINAL CAMERA NEGATIVE (2023) Original theatrical trailer Vintage short subjects: Plnane Nuts Tomalio Vintage cartoon Buddy's Beer Garden Optional English SDH subtitles for the main feature Show more
