Leave your thoughts about Woman of the Year.
| New YorkerPenelope GilliattThe film earlier has one of the very best Tracy-Hepburn love scenes, full of the sense of private shelter that they uniquely purvey. |
| The New York TimesBosley CrowtherIt's as warming as a Manhattan cocktail and as juicy as a porterhouse steak. |
| Groucho ReviewsPeter CanaveseAn effervescent but edgy rom-com about love, career, the insecurities men and women felt (and, sadly, still feel to some extent) around burgeoning feminism. [Criterion Blu-ray] |
| Chicago TribuneMichael WilmingtonWoman of the Year certainly has its other auxiliary charms: beautifully textured lighting by cinematographer Joseph Ruttenberg; a luminous, if limited, performance by Fay Bainter as Tess’s motherly aunt; and some enchanting simulations of soft winter snowfall. But it’s hard not to feel berated, in a time that’s seeing the resurgence of a pernicious nationalism, by both the film’s anti-feminist slant and its insistent compulsion to put a box around Americanism. |
| Tampa Bay TimesSteve PersallWatching Woman of the Year today, it’s hard not to see it as a the model for almost every romantic comedy. |
| Scene-Stealers.comEric MelinFor anyone looking to add a single Hepburn/Tracy movie to their collection, this is the one. |
| Q Network Film DeskJames Kendrickisn't necessarily one of the best films of its era, but it does capture in its essence the complex nature of relationships and the unavoidable way that power dynamics can come to a head |
| EmanuelLevy.ComEmanuel LevyThe first teaming of Tracy and Hepburn shows the chemistry between the stars, setting the pattern for future and better battle of the sexes romantic comedies. |
| The New YorkerPauline KaelGeorge Stevens’s plodding, straitlaced direction takes much of the edge off this 1941 Katharine Hepburn-Spencer Tracy vehicle. |
| Movie MomNell MinowBrilliant except for the odd part about the adopted child and awkward ending. |
