Average Rating: 
Rating: - More drama than western; Superb supporting cast.
The Sea Of Grass has a great cast headed by Tracy & Hepburn in their only western together. Unfortunately it's more of a drama than a western and may seem a bit slow to western fans. Also their romance is strained throughout which may seem odd to Tracy/Hepburn fans, but won't disappoint in the long-run. The plot chiefly concerns how her one-time indiscretion strains the marriage and disrupts the family, particularly the effects on their son, fathered outside the marriage by Melvyn Douglas. ...

Rating: - A Different Sort of Tracy/Hepburn Movie
I saw this movie for the first time over the weekend. I enjoyed the movie which is a sort of Western soap opera. What I found most impressive was the relationship between the two stars of the movie. Both characters came across as quite reserved which is unusual given their other performances together.

Rating:  - For me the least of the Tracy & Hepburn movies
"The Sea of Grass" is the fourth of the nine films that Spencer Tracy and Katharine Hepburn made together, and for me it is the least appealing one of the lot.

Two years earlier Tracy and Hepburn had made "Without Love," and in the interim period Tracy had starred on Broadway in Robert E. Sherwood's "The ... Read More
Rating: - spencer lags!!
this has to be spencers lazyist performance, he vertually allows kate to walk off with this movie,but i have to say the grass is the star of this film ,there is a lovely scene where spence tells kate of the grass's importance and the night scene with kate standing in the grass has to be seen to be believed, the beauty will take your breath away!
Rating: - A sad life
This is the saddest Spencer Tracy movie I've seen. Tracy plays a prosperous cattle baron, who, although he rules his range with an iron hand, can't rule his marriage or his family, and everything else goes sour for him, too. His high-society wife from St. Louis (played by Hepburn) doesn't see eye-to-eye with him on the question of the open range, she cuckolds him by having an affair with Melvyn Douglas and having a son by him (which both Tracy and the son eventually figure out), the land endures years of ...
