  Christopher Strong - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Christopher Strong was a 1933 RKO film, directed by Dorothy Arzner and starring Katharine Hepburn in her second screen role.
Originally intended as a vehicle for Ann Harding and Leslie Howard, Christopher Strong is a tale of illicit love among the English aristocracy.
But she has an affair with faithful husband and member of Parliament, Christopher Strong (Colin Clive), much to the distress of his wife, Lady Elaine (Billie Burke) and his daughter, Monica (Helen Chandler), who marries her lover, Harry Rawlinson (Ralph Forbes)), when he divorces his wife because of their affair.

On appeal, Strong contends the evidence was insufficient to sustain his conviction because (1) Barbara Doggett was not one hundred percent sure she was talking to Strong on the telephone, (2) Douglas Doggett did not remember handing the phone to Barbara Doggett, and (3) he denied using any obscene language directed at Barbara Doggett.
The Commonwealth contends Strong's claim is procedurally barred by Rule 5A:18 because, as shown in the record before this Court, Strong failed, in noting his objection at trial to the sufficiency of the evidence, to state with any specificity the grounds of his objection.
Here, the record indicates that Strong made only a general argument in the trial court that "the evidence was insufficient to prove the charge against [him]." Nothing in the record shows what specific arguments, if any, Strong made to the trial court as to why the evidence was insufficient.

Monica Strong (Helen Chandler) is distressed also, but she is preoccupied about her own romance with a young man of fashion (Ralph Forbes) who is so slow getting a divorce that by the time he is ready to marry Monica, she is ready to kill herself for having misbehaved with a young Italian in Cannes.
The aviatrix and Sir Christopher Strong are as sad about their attachment as possible.
She acts with intelligent assurance, speaks in a strong, flat, curiously pleasant voice with the inflections of a polite upbringing in Hartford, Conn. Miss Hepburn did her first acting at Bryn Mawr, where she graduated in 1929, acquired the defect of talking too fast.

Rather, the Christopher initiative is astounding insofar as it appears, at least implicitly, to mark a wholesale reversal on the part of the Clinton Administration concerning Syria's connection to international terrorism.
Indeed, it has been widely expected that the Christopher State Department would agree to remove Syria from its terrorist sponsors list (and its list of drug-trafficking nations) as part of a package deal designed to induce Assad to sign a peace treaty with Israel.
The Center for Security Policy applauds Secretary Christopher's decision to serve notice on the Syrians that they will be held directly responsible for the terrorist activities of those who enjoy their hospitality and support.
