About this product

Product Information

One of the most engaging George Cukor comedies, this was the director's eighth and last film with Katharine Hepburn. With exceptionally witty dialogue (the Kanin/Gordon script got an Academy Award nomination), PAT AND MIKE was tailor made for its two stars, presenting a picture of sexual politics far ahead of its time. The film tells the story of the unlikely professional and romantic relationship between a classy female golfer and a street smart sports promoter. Pat Pemberton (Katharine Hepburn) is a physical education teacher who, entering a golf tournament, is approached by Mike Conovan (Spencer Tracy), a sports promoter and manager. Impressed by her game, he convinces her to sign a pro contract to compete in various sporting competitions. Now it is Mike's task to get Pat into professional shape. Hepburn did all of her own golfing in the finished film. Appearing in the movie as themselves were some of the most celebrated sportswomen of the era, including golfer Babe Didriksen Zaharias and tennis star "Gorgeous" Gussie Moran.

  • A Tracy and Hepburn comedy classic

    Classic Golden Age romantic comedy with the legendary Tracy-Hepburn team. A naturally talented fema le athlete finds out what's holding her back from success on the playing fields and in life . Spencer Tracy delivers a memorable performance as he repeatedly demands answers to the "three questions." Hepburn portrays a strong independent woman who finds new strength as she helps Tracy fight off a trio of gangsters and at the same time frees herself from the shackles of a confining relationship. A lot funnier and lighter-hearted than what passes for romantic comedy these days.
