Actress Katharine Hepburn played the role in the mid-thirties. the downbeat nature of the film- which did not essentially alter history- was a draw-back in the dire depression time it was made. A much more recent actress played the role Glenda Jackson, who also did Elizabeth I- versatile gal. The actresses Florence Eldridge and one other- can"t recall the name may have played the tragic Queen Mary in the interwar period- best job was by Katharine Hepburn and the critics liked it- but thought the tragic plot was badly timed- for l935.
