The late, great Kate is back...

Katharine Hepburn is considered by many to be the finest actress ever to grace the screens of Hollywood. That she was also a firebrand of a personality only added to her considerable legend. To commemorate the 100th year of her birth, The Los Angeles Museum of Art is running a long series of her films starting tonight. Do yourself a favor--go to the LACMA after work to see the George Kahn Quintet at 6 p.m., have a few pops, then stay for what may be the best of the nine films that Hepburn starred in with Spencer Tracy, Adam's Rib.
