The film&#8217;s unusual setting serves as its calling card, as we&#8217;re provided with a refreshingly ethnographic look at this milieu, with a handful of real-life female athletic stars (such as <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Babe_Didrikson_Zaharias\">Babe Didrikson Zaharias<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Alice_Marble\">Alice Marble<\/a>) appearing onscreen in &#8220;competition&#8221; with Hepburn. Hepburn was a gifted athlete in her own right, and is 100% believable in her role here; indeed, screenwriters Garson Kanin and Ruth Gordon &#8212; friends of Hepburn and Tracy &#8212; wrote the script with her talents in mind. Meanwhile, her rapport with Tracy (having fun playing a somewhat morally dubious character) is as predictably solid as always, and William Ching is fine in a humorous role as her jinxing beau. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/Pat-and-Mike-Ching.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/Pat-and-Mike-Ching.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1409\" height=\"1025\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-58806\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/Pat-and-Mike-Ching.png 1409w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/Pat-and-Mike-Ching-300x218.png 300w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/Pat-and-Mike-Ching-1024x745.png 1024w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/Pat-and-Mike-Ching-128x93.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/Pat-and-Mike-Ching-768x559.png 768w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/Pat-and-Mike-Ching-371x270.png 371w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1409px) 100vw, 1409px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The storyline itself, while slight, is drolly witty, and nicely handled by director George Cukor;
