I was loathe to narrow down Hepburn to a single movie, but African Queen was the first thing I saw Hepburn in, and it was love at first sight, and so if you forced my hand it would definitely be this movie.

Oh, absolutely!! Katherine Hepburn was a goddess. No question.
The African Queen
The Desk Set
The Philadelphia Story
The Rainmaker and
The Lion in Winter
Not saying that these are the only films I liked her in ... far from it. It's just that these are my favorite KH performances.
If I were ever going to switch teams ... I would hope I could end up with someone as beautiful and intelligent as Katherine Hepburn.
