Continuity mistake: When Spencer Tracy takes Katharine Hepburn to the baseball game (about 20 minutes into the film), several plays supposedly from that game are shown. Some of the plays take place on a diamond that has a well manicured dirt path from the pitchers mound to home plate, while others take place on a diamond with an all grass infield and no path.
Woman of the Year (1942)
Directed by: George Stevens
Starring: Spencer Tracy, Katharine Hepburn, Reginald Owen, Fay Bainter
Visible crew/equipment: When Kate and Spencer go back to her apartment for the first time, you can see the shadow of the boom mike follow them along the top of the wall then stop.
Visible crew/equipment: When Spencer walks out of his bedroom, you can see the shadow of the boom mike moving (along the top of the wall above the light switch). In the next shot, you still see the shadow of it, however it isn't moving anymore.
Trivia: This is the first film of nine that Spencer and Hepburn appeared together. They fell in love during the shooting of this film.
Tess Harding: Sam, why can't we sit down like adults and patch this thing up?
Sam Craig: I'm afraid that might become a habit. Then we'd wind up with a patchwork quilt for a marriage.
Ellen Whitcomb: Success is no fun unless you share it with someone.
Sam Craig: I don't want to be married to Tess Harding any more than I want you to be just Mrs Sam Craig. Why can't you be Tess Harding Craig?
Tess Harding: I think it's a wonderful name.
