The Last Hurrah   1977         TV, 105 min. Genre: Drama Director: Vincent Sherman   Cast: Carroll O'Connor, John Anderson, Dana Andrews, Jack Carter, Mariette Hartley, Burgess Meredith, Patrick O'Neal, Patrick Wayne, Kitty Winn, Arthur Franz   This is a TV remake of John Ford's 1958 film based on the bestselling novel by Edwin O'Connor. Carroll O'Connor takes on the role (formerly played by Spencer Tracy) of the flamboyant, shady Mayor Frank Skeffingon. A good effort, especially by O'Connor, though not on a par with the 1958 film.
