Pat and Mike (1952)
9/10
Katharine Hepburn-Spencer Tracy Must-See Movie
14 March 2021
Classic Movie from a Legendary Hollywood Couple !

A legendary couple on- and off-screen, Katharine Hepburn and Spencer Tracy appeared in nine movies, most notably in battle-of-the-sexes plots with plenty of scope for their natural chemistry. These were showcases for their verbal sparring and clear delight in being together. Most of the films are memorable must-sees.

An unabashedly feminist film that allowed Hepburn to show off her real-life, world-class skills as a golfer and tennis player, Pat and Mike is a light comedy that allows the audience to relax and enjoy the stars' chemistry. Hepburn is a bored college athletics teacher who meets up with a sketchy sports promoter (Tracy) and goes pro, although every time her fiancee shows up at an event, she flops. The writing team of Gordon and Kanin delivered another entertaining vehicle for the classic couple.
