Pat and Mike

The sun will sneak past a rooster before sports promoter Mike Conovan (Spencer Tracy) lets opportunity pass hime by. So the first time he sees genteel Pat Pemberton (Katharine Hepburn) swing a five-iron, he decides to ink her to a pro contract. "Not much meat on her" Mike later says, "but what's there is cherce". For this 'chercest' of romantic comedies, George Cukor directs, Ruth Gordon and Carson Kanin provide the Oscar-nominated screenplay and a deft cast plays various Damon Runyonesque types, including Aldo Ray as a dim-bulb palooka and Charles (Bronson) Buchinski as a tough guy who finds Pat tougher. Sports stars of the day (like Babe Didrikson Zharias and Gussie Moran) add to the Jacks-and-Jills fun. Let the games begin!

    A comedy which amuses because of its star playing, but doesn't really develop. All very easy going, with guest appearances from sporting personalities.

    a fun classic

    I love old films and this one does not disappoint. The classic pairing of Hepburn and Tracy sparks throughout, mixed with old fashioned fun. If you like the 'oldies' or are curious about classic 'romcoms' then give this one a look in.
