What a wonderful performance by Spencer Tracy! I have read that the movie was thought to be a depiction of the real-life Mayor Curley of Boston. I can remember hearing the name "Mayor Curley" when I first moved to Massachusetts as a young boy, even though his political career was already in the past. The picture is wonderfully done and gave me fond memories of my youthful years living in the Greater Boston area. In this case, Spencer Tracy plays "Mayor Skeffington," an old-time Irish-American politician in his last political campaign. It displayed the tension between the Yankee bluebloods and the ascendant Irish and others over political control of the city. I recommend it especially to those who know Boston well.

Spencer Tracy is fantastic as the Tamanny Hall style Irish politician fighting his final election - great cast, great characterisations

A late film from Ford that confirms and crystallizes a number of themes and tropes prominent in his work throughout his career. The lone hero tirelessly works for the people, honors and even talks to his dead wife, sometimes resorts to more unsavory methods to accomplish his purpose. The only difference here is the ultimate pessimism--his way cannot continue, his kind is dying out, tradition will pass away--and that we should mourn such a circumstance. Also, some nice expressionist flourishes.

"The Last Hurrah" is a must see for Political Professionals If you are engaged in practical politics then the "The Last Hurrah" is a must for you. If you enjoy watching people or enjoy the company of people then you will enjoy the new characters that you will meet in the "Last Hurrah" The film introduces us to the character of "Ditto". If you have been in politics for long, you have met several Dittos and several of the other lively characters that are still fresh today. The competion between Police and Fire, the Funeral water, the Comodore /Fire Comisioneer, the GadFly Cadidate, and so many characters will look familiar for students of our system of government.

Exceptional John Ford drama, helped immesurably by an incredible cast of veteran actors. Spencer Tracy is terrific as always. John Ford's direction is very subdued, giving the film a very interesting feel - it is never melodramatic. Nice black and white cinematography, well edited. Great pace.
