“I wish I could tell it all — I’ve been everything to him, you know, including nurse, but it wouldn’t be fair.” - KH about ST to Roy Newquist on set of GWCTD (Quoted in Newquist’s own column, The Park Forest Star, December 1971) Today, June 9th, is the last day #KatharineHepburn unknowingly had with #SpencerTracy. Roy Newquist wrote a wonderful book (A Special Kind of Magic) containing interviews from on set of GUESS WHOS COMING TO DINNER and was somebody Kate could really confide in; UCLA holds the private tapes of his interviews, which feature audio clips of Tracy & Hepburn behind the scenes! In a private handwritten letter sent to Newquist in reply to his condolences, KH remarked once again about the 26 years she spent with Tracy, stating: “Someday I suppose I’ll try to do a book – but it would involve others + it is awkward” Many others received a similar reply when asked about her writing the story of life with Spencer while Louise Tracy was still alive - Thankfully, Katharine DID write a book decades later when she realized nobody would get hurt anymore by what it contained. - Photos: On set of GWCTD, you can see the love Katharine radiated as she made sure Spencer was comfortable at all times. • #guesswhoscomingtodinner #roynewquist #Film #onthisday #love #couple #hollywood #care #history #gwctd #tracyhepburn #hepburn #hepburntracy https://www.instagram.com/p/CP58M0DnH3D/?utm_medium=tumblr -- source link
