Desk Set Reviews
Great Film
My favorite Hepburn-Tracy film. Not only the acting, but the rhythm and pace of the film and the actors. I've seen it many times. The story line is simple, fun and straight foward about a research department run by three chummy gals and Kate Hepburn, their very smart boss with a photographic memory. (up to 13, that is) All is fine, and the first part of the film is very much like watching a play. The film moves smoothly along, until the gals learn that they're about to get a mechanical brain (as they call a new huge computer that makes noises) which they fear will replace them, and thus their jobs. Tracy and Hepburn are terrific together (as usual) and there's not a moment lost in this outstanding comedy.
There is a commentary. Skip it. Dina Merril, who plays one of the secretaries in the flm, does most of the talking, but she talks mainly about herself and her (uninteresting) career and practically nothing about the making of the film.

I watched this and taped it off of PBS. It is one of the best Hepburn / Tracy movies I have ever seen. I have loaned it to so many people, who loe it too.
