OVERVIEW
Humphrey Bogart considered Spencer Tracy to be Hollywood's best actor. "He makes you believe he is what he is playing," Bogey once said. Katharine Hepburn, Tracy's beloved companion of 25 years, compared him to "a baked potato. It's pure. It's of the earth. And it's dependable. That was Spencer."
Hepburn hosts this glorious slaute, a double Emmy winner for writing and directing. Featuring clips from Captains Corageous, Bad Day at Black Rock, Adam's Rib and other Tracy hits alongside reminiscences from Frank Sinatra, Sidney Poitier, Elizabeth Taylor and more great stars. The Spencer Tracy Legacy follows Tracy's stellar career from brash young man blazing with talent to old lion showing new stars how it's done. Share the genius and the drama of Tracy's on- and off-screen life. Stars don't shine any brighter.
