Happy 4th to all. I didn't get around to posting Famous Couples Friday, so I will do Movie Star Monday alittle early! This week I am posting about Spencer Tracey. 1900-1967. Probably, in my opinion, one of the great actors of all time, of any generation. His acting was so natural and easy.

One of my favorite Tracey movies. He and Clark Gable played well opposite each other...
Of course, with the love of his life, Katherine Hepburn...
His last movie was "Guess Who's Coming to Dinner." He was very ill and died a few weeks after the movie was finished. His scene where he is giving his daughter and her fiancee his blessing is a great one in film history.
Hi Robin!! I loved Tracy in "Father of the Bride" too. Happy 4th of July to you and your family and don't paint all day, have some fun too!!

Great post about Spencer Tracy. I loved it and he was one of the greatest actors that ever lived. His pairings with Kate are legendary.
ReplyDeleteOne of my favorite Hollywood couples...and "Guess Who's Coming to Dinner" is one of my favorite movies. Rumor has it when Tracey's character gives the speech about love at the end of the film, he was really talking about Katharine.
