1933 Glamour Love Romance Katharine Hepburn Tragedy
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the British Film Institute, we are transported back to the golden era of Hollywood in 1933. The image features two iconic actors, Katharine Hepburn and Colin Clive, in a scene from Dorothy Arzner's masterpiece "Christopher Strong". Radiating romance and glamour, Hepburn's ethereal beauty is perfectly complemented by Clive's dashing charm. Their on-screen chemistry is palpable as they embody the essence of forbidden love. Set against a backdrop of tragedy and heartache, their performances evoke a range of emotions that leave audiences spellbound. "Christopher Strong" tells the story of Lady Cynthia Darrington (played by Hepburn), an independent aviator who finds herself entangled in a passionate affair with Sir Christopher Strong (portrayed by Clive), a married man. This ill-fated love affair challenges societal norms and explores themes of sacrifice, desire, and self-discovery. The photograph captures a poignant moment between these star-crossed lovers; their eyes locked in longing as they navigate through the complexities of their relationship. It serves as a testament to both Hepburn's magnetic presence on screen and Arzner's directorial prowess. This timeless image not only celebrates the talent of these legendary actors but also pays homage to an era when cinema was at its most glamorous. It reminds us why films like "Christopher Strong" continue to captivate audiences even decades later – because true love stories never go out of style.
