Why do I love this movie? Let me count the ways.

Spencer Tracey didn't want to do this movie because he thought Katherine Hepburn looked like someone who had dirt under her nails.

Katherine Hepburn (who owned the rights to the movie) demanded that Spencer Tracy was cast.

The famous "He'll cut down to his size" never happened with these two actors. They did everything they could do to make each other look good.

etc, etc.

Somewhere in the filming they fell in love.
