I was going to suggest a trade, Iron Petticoat for something like Christopher Strong if any of you have it. Ooh, or Spitfire. But yeah. It's PAL. I can support Both PAL and NTSC

But on the other hand, I couldn't part with any of my Kate movies. Even Spitfire.

Stupid question. When Kate goes in the store to buy the black lace dress it comes to well above her knee, but when she goes to dinner it is to the floor. In some of the pics in this thread there is a picture of her in the short dress. Any experts out there? Why was it never used in the movie? Was it too 'sexy' for Kate or the director? Anyone else catch this?

The black short dress is the petticoat (where Kate´s character allows her to not only to dream but actually get one) and the long one is the dress on top of the petticoat.

Because of the iron hand which they where lead back then in Russia - and Kate's pushing her own boundaries with the black petticoat = the iron petticoat. At least that is what I always thought was the red thread in the title

CFK: So we all heard about Betty Bacall, I guess? Pretty rotten news, especially following so closely on Robin Williams. What a lousy week. Watched To Have and Have Not as tribute tonight. Aug 13, 2014 0:25:58 GMT -5

Fran: I think the problem with actresses such as Bette Davis and Joan Crawford was that they played SEX SYMBOLS and did woman movies. They were sexy in their day and were the main love interests in the movie. When they got older those woman type movies were dead Jun 26, 2017 16:56:41 GMT -5

Fran: Bette Davis made very different movies from Katherine Hepburn Hepburn. Bette was sexy. So was Crawford. They made woman type movies. Hepburn was the masculine feminist. When their looks went, so did their careers. Hepburn was never that type. Jun 26, 2017 16:57:53 GMT -5

Angela: Personally, I like Bette Davis best she was "a woman for all season" she didn't mince words she did the role without having to apologize for creativity she musters to do the work. Also, she could look different without worrying about her appearance. Mar 14, 2019 19:54:07 GMT -5

Angela: Personally, I felt Bette Davis was the "woman for all seasons" since she used all her creativity to make her artwork. As for Katherine she seems to sound the same - her voice didn't change. Granted she was good in Shakespeare which I give credit. Mar 14, 2019 19:56:35 GMT -5

SJS: Bette had a mostly latent tendency to ham, and she admitted it. She really appreciated a director who could get her to tone it down. She lost respect for a director who would let her get away with it. But she took chances that most actresses wouldn't. Apr 15, 2020 14:12:32 GMT -5
