| User ReviewGreg WA good re-telling of Mary Stuart. I much prefer others but still a great film. |
| User ReviewApril MKatharine. There will never be another her. The great ones only come around once. |
| User ReviewAndy FThis is the first K Hepburn movie I've ever liked--and trust me, I've seen lots of her films. I think it's because this is the first movie where I've heard her speak normally. And then there's the great historical story line. |

| User ReviewLinda VA GREAT CLASSIC HEPBURN ALWAYS THE GREATEST |
| User ReviewSean WAlthough I do love this film--in short it is a bit boring. I loved the period costumes and sets and the acting, but storyline lacked any real excitement!! Katherine Hepburn was fine but any real passion in the acting department has to go to Fredric March. The supporting players were good in their parts, especially Florence Eldridge as Queen Elizabeth. It is a nice film, but a tad too long and boring! |
| User ReviewPrivate Ugood film, katherine hepburn is very memorable |
| User ReviewLeo SAfter a trip to Scotland, am in love with the history of Henry, Elizabeth, Mary and James. Watching a movie made over 70 years ago, I still feel the movie is a good one. |
| User ReviewRick Qkatharine hepburn gives one of her most amazing performances in "mary of scotland". the film tells an interesting story, but it really is hepburn who really sells it. |
| User ReviewLuciene CKatharine Hepburn como Mary, Queen of Scots, que se recusa a curvar-se ao poder de Elizabeth. A maior parte da ação do filme à (C) mesmo sobre o background da peça de Schiller, mas, no final, ainda que não se detenha nos mesmos detalhes da peça, ele mostra toda a determinação sublime de Mary. |
