Ranks right behind Hoffman-Voight (Midnight Cowboy) for greatest double lead performances. Interestingly they both played the lead in 'Jeckle and Hyde' and while Tracy was very good in his (1941) March was magnificent in his version of 1932. These two rank right behind the incomparable Paul Muni among the early 1930s early film actors who established the prototype for film acting.
shareI agree they played off each other amazingly.
