Gentleman Jim

directed by Raoul Walsh

Maybe Errol Flynn was never the war hero that he often played, but he was a capable boxer, and Gentleman Jim makes full use of this skill.

directed by Curtis Bernhardt

Rhapsody in Blue

Rhapsody in Blue (1945) more movies like this

directed by Irving Rapper
featuring Robert Alda, Joan Leslie, Alexis Smith, Charles Coburn, Julie Bishop, Oscar Levant

There's slightly more fancy than fact in this lavish film biography of legendary American composer George Gershwin, but oh! That music! Director Irving Rapper had wanted Tyrone Power to play Gershwin, but Power was still serving in the Marines, so Rapper had to settle for Robert Alda--who isn't bad at all, just a trifle over-enthusiastic. The film ...

directed by Frank Capra
featuring Bing Crosby, Jane Wyman, Alexis Smith, Franchot Tone, James Barton

The Adventures of Mark Twain (1944) more movies like this

directed by Irving Rapper
featuring Fredric March, Alexis Smith, Donald Crisp, Alan Hale, C. Aubrey Smith

Dismissed by critics as corny and obvious in 1944, this overlong but sincere biopic looks pretty good when seen today, cliches notwithstanding. Fredric March, 47 at the time, convincingly plays American author Sam Clemens, aka Mark Twain, from his early 20s to his death at 75. In typical movie-biography fashion, every single incident that happens ...
