El legendario director John Ford se aleja del western para incursionar en el mundo de la politica con un encantador y conmovedor relato que evoca al "Mr. Smith Goes To Washington" de Frank Capra. En "The Last Hurrah" Spencer Tracy encarna al alcalde Frank Skeffington, un hombre que todavia piensa en un politico como un hombre del pueblo cuyas decisiones deben ser medidas y jugadas. Jeffrey Hunter interpreta a su sobrino, un periodista que intenta conocer tanto a su familiar como al hombre publico. Esta es una cinta que como todas las de Ford, es protagonizada por hombres duros que nos susurran al oido.

Spencer Tracy is quite amazing in this even if the film is a bit predictable and rote. It does have some interesting things to say about populism and how (then) television was changing the way politics was done on a local level.

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.

A quality picture, full of meaning, history, and famous faces. It details the fall of the old ways of politics -- like the good old-fashioned street-corner speech -- to the advances of television and the scripted plug. It follows the last campaign of Frank Skeffington (Spencer Tracy) in a well-suited role as an aging mayor. His nephew (Jeffrey Hunter), who cares for Skeffington more than the mayor's own son, follows the campaign, shenanigans, and magnanimity of Skeffington. The film was created from a successful novel, and the quality shows. We can see that there is backstory to the characters, a life beyond the plot. The honest emotions in the closing scenes are not to be missed. They touched me keenly.

An extremely underrated movie that everyone should see. That's really about all that has to be said.
