A WOMAN REBELS.

Hepburn's performance as the defiant young woman is considered the epitome of her feminist characterizations of the 1930s. Pamela defies her autocratic father, and has a baby out of wedlock with her lover, Gerald Waring. Pamela raises her illegitimate daughter as her niece and becomes a crusading journalist for women's rights. Eventually she agrees to marry diplomat Thomas Lane after being unfairly named as co-respondent in Waring's divorce.
