The 1942 film “Keeper of the Flame” stars Spencer Tracy as battle-scarred journalist Steven O’Malley, who aims to write a book about his hero, Robert Forrest, who recently died in a tragic accident. However, after meeting his widow, Christine Forrest, played by Katherine Hepburn, the reporter discovers the true story behind the man everyone admired.
