Widely believed to be based on the life of Boston mayor James Curley, THE LAST HURRAH stars Spencer Tracy (whom Ford discovered) as Mayor Frank Skeffington, the last of a dying breed of grassroots politicians. Facing a re-election challenge from a new kind of politician, the TV candidate, Skeffington pulls out all the stops in an old-fashioned, rip-roaring campaign which enrages the WASP establishment. Supported by a superb cast of character actors, including Pat O'Brien, John Carradine, Basil Rathbone and James Gleason (heralded at the time as the largest collection of scene-stealers ever assembled), Tracy gives a spellbinding performance in this frank and funny, and ultimately wrenching, portrait of a great man's final days. 538 $a DVD, widescreen (16:9); Dolby Digital 2.0; NTSC. 546 $a In English with optional English, Spanish, and Korean subtitles; closed-captioned. 546 $a Menu and cover in Korean and English. 655 7 $a Comedy films. $2 lcgft. 655 7 $a Film adaptations. $2 lcgft. 655 7 $a Feature films. $2 lcgft. 700 1 $a Ford, John, $d 1894-1973 $4 drt. 700 1 $a Tracy, Spencer, $d 1900-1967. $4 act. 700 1 $a Hunter, Jeffrey, $d 1925-1969. $4 act. 700 1 $a Foster, Dianne, $d 1928- $4 act. 700 1 $a O'Brien, Pat, $d 1899-1983. $4 act. 700 1 $a O'Connor, Edwin. $t Last hurrah. 941 $a 1 945 $a dvv 952 $l CBPF522 $d 20190606010509.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=6BDD74B8882011E9AF563E2B97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
