A Special Kind of Love (2008)
*** 1/2 (out of 4)
This seventeen-minute featurette is a follow-up to A LOVE STORY OF TODAY and takes a look at Spencer Tracy's involvement in GUESS WHO'S COMING TO DINNER, which of course turned out to be his final movie. Katharine Houghton, Karen Sharpe, Salome Thomas-El and Joe Morgenstern are just some of the people who pay tribute to the actor who passed away seventeen days after completing his work on the movie. If you're a fan of Tracy then you'll certainly want to check this out as it really works well as a tribute to the actor. They talk about how sick he was on the production and the fact that everyone knew he was dying. The on-set relationship between him and Katharine Hepburn is also discussed.
