Ross has found one. And we all know how picky he is. On the movie front, we rented "Adam’s Rib" the other night. I don’t know why I keep being surprised, but every time I see a Hepburn-Tracy movie, I feel as if I live in a terribly unsophisticated time. The movie is about women’s equality – and it does its job. But the dynamics between husband and wife, the paradoxes of the gender war, the hate that is never far from love, and all of it with such knowingness and fun: this is an artefact of a Hollywood culture far more intelligent than anything we have now. This is not, of course, to detract from the talent and chemistry of the two stars. Has any movie figure been more of a woman – a full, accomplished, witty, funny woman – than Hepburn?
