With four trophies in the "Best Actress in a Leading Role" category, Katharine Hepburn remains the undefeated Oscar queen to this day, an eternal Hollywood icon. After 40 roles and a career spanning more than 60 years, the American Film Institute names her the greatest female star in the history of American cinema. Some of these film roles - strong, independent and emancipated women - are etched in the collective film memory to this day. In numerous television interviews, Katharine Hepburn herself analyzes her life and work in her unmistakably direct manner.
