The Last Hurrah -- Spencer Tracy portrays a down-to-earth big city mayor ruthlessly thwarted by political enemies.

A teacher passes up opportunities for fulfillment and happiness to teach, but in later life the rewards of teaching are made clear by the return of many of her students to honor her.

The Last Hurrah is a comedy filmed in a single continuous shot. Set at a graduation party in Los Angeles, an eclectic group of brainy philosophy students, train-hopping hippies, aspiring prophets and drug-addled hipsters come together for one wild night. At the eye of the storm are three best friends, all with the same problem - women. Jason can't get enough of them, Steve can't let go of the one he's got and Will can't understand them at all. The brainy grad students will have to work through their issues fast, because tonight's house party is their last crack at the women of the philosophy department. In the spirit of Richard Linklater and Woody Allen, The Last Hurrah is a smart, witty, ensemble-driven comedy that wonders if the over examined life is really worth living.

Oscar-nominee and Golden Globe-winner Arthur Kennedy ("Lawrence of Arabia," "Peyton Place") stars in this exciting action/adventure about a bomber crew that battles over the Pacific in World War II. Oscar and Golden Globe-winner Gig Young ("They Shoot Horses, Don't They?") and Oscar-nominee John Garfield ("Body and Soul") co-star in this powerful film. Received multiple Oscar-nominations, including nods for Best Original Screenplay, and won for Best Film Editing. Directed by Oscar- honoree Howard Hawks ("Bringing Up Baby").
