For the final episode in the Hepburn vs. Hepburn series, Alex and Jonathan discuss The African Queen (1951) starring Katharine Hepburn, and Charade (1963) starring Audrey Hepburn. We talk about Katharine’s return to Hollywood and career after being “over the hill,” Audrey’s ability to mix comedy and fear, and how these films mark the end of an era in Hollywood.
