Steve D 01/01/2024 Hepburn at her best. See more 11/28/2013 good weepie or women's pic See more 01/08/2011 A Woman Rebels (1936) -- [5.0] -- It presents a peek at the feminist persona for which Katharine Hepburn would later become famous, but "A Woman Rebels" is a little too melodramatic for my taste, and its narrative loses steam in the last few reels. With the Hays Code firmly in place, the script tiptoes around subjects like Hepburn's illegitimate baby and her sister's unfortunate miscarriage, but you can piece two and two together. The Code actually makes these less exploited aspects of the story among the more interesting. Other parts of the movie, like Donald Crisp's over-the-top chauvenistic father character and Hepburn's questionable resolve to raise her daughter as her niece, are far more difficult to swallow. See more 03/07/2009 Katharine Hepburn is an inspiration to us all as she plays Pamela, a young woman who rebels against the norms of the society to be an independant lady. Enjoyable, touching and highly amusing. See more 07/09/2008 I love Hepburn but this was AWFUL. Stilted storyline, stiff acting, and lots of over-emoting by all involved. See it only for the gorgeous early Hepburn doing her spirited best to make a mark in Hollywood. See more 05/17/2008 In the late Victorian age, Hepburn finds her balls and does what she wants, thank you. A lesser work by Kate. See more Read all reviews
