According to The Guardian, Katherine Hepburn was every bit the strident pain-in-the-ass she played on film. After being pulled over by a cop for speeding in Oklahoma, Hepburn called him a "moron" and "handsome... in a dull sort of way." She then told him she had better things to do then deal with a speeding ticket for the next week, and swore she would slash the tires of any car she saw in Connecticut with Oklahoma plates as a form of karmic retribution.
Hero.
