## HEADING: SPENCER TRACY ## LEFT COLUMN 4600. SPENCER TRACY: SPENCER TRACY LEGACY. 3/10/86 close up SPENCER TRACY LEGACY (CC) 3/10/86 A TRIBUTE BY KATHARINE HEPBURN For younger moviegoers unfamiliar with the work of Spencer Tracy, his longtime screen partner Katharine Hepburn suggests that getting a taste of his films through this retrospective is "going to be like eating a baked potato for the first time. A baked potato is pure, it's of the earth and it's dependable. That was Spencer." Hepburn, of course, is prejudiced, but her opin- ion of Tracy as an actor is seconded by Elizabeth Taylor, Frank Sinatra, Burt Reynolds, Sidney Pot- ter, Angela Lansbury, Richard Widmark, Lee Marvin, Joan Bennett, Joanne Woodward, Mick- ey Rooney, Robert Wagner, Garrison Keillor, Stan- ley Kramer, John Sturges and Joseph L. Man- kiewicz. And it's rattled by clips from a film ca- reer that spanned 37 years and 74 movies. Included: scenes of Tracy as a con in his first Hepburn and Tracy in "Guess Who's Coming to Dinner" film, "Up the River" (1930); playing opposite Jean Harlow in "Red Hair" (1932); as the battling priest in "San Francisco" (1936); in Oscar-win- ning roles in "Captains Courageous" (1937) and "Boys Town" (1938); courting Hepburn in their first collaboration, "Woman of the Year" (1942); in Hemingway's "The Old Man and the Sea" (1958); and in his last role, 1967's "Guess Who's Coming to Dinner." Hepburn also recalls her first meeting with Tracy, and Sussie Tracy remembers going on the sets of her father's movies. (90 min.) SEA OF GRASS. (BW)(1947) K.Hepburn; M. Douglas; R. Wagner.
