A new book, 'Moxie: The Daring Women of Classic Hollywood,' explores Katharine Hepburn's role in the 1935 film 'Sylvia Scarlett,' which, despite being a commercial failure, sparked rumors about her sexuality due to its gender-bending themes. The book highlights Hepburn's defiance of traditional femininity and her aversion to celebrity culture, while acknowledging her significant legacy in Hollywood. It also touches on her long-term relationship with Spencer Tracy and claims about her personal life from Scotty Bowers.
