Harvey

Harvey (1950) more movies like this

directed by Henry Koster
featuring James Stewart, Josephine Hull, Peggy Dow, Charles Drake, Cecil Kellaway, Victoria Horne

This whimsical fantasy about a local drunk's 6' 3 1/2" imaginary rabbit pal was a smash hit (and a Pulitzer Prize winner) on Broadway and was then adapted into this likeable farce that's also an allegory about tolerance. James Stewart stars as Elwood P. Dowd, a wealthy tippler whose sunny philosophy and inebriated antics are tolerated by most of ...

To Hell and Back

To Hell and Back (1955) more movies like this

directed by Jesse Hibbs
featuring Audie Murphy, Marshall Thompson, Susan Kohner, Charles Drake, Jack Kelly, Gregg Palmer

The highly variable Audie Murphy delivers his best screen performance as "himself" in Universal's To Hell and Back. Based on the star's autobiography, this is the story of how Murphy became America's most-decorated soldier during WW II. After dwelling a bit on Murphy's hard-scrabble Texas upbringing, the story moves ahead to 1942, when, at 18, ...

Lin McAdam (James Stewart) and his friend High-Spade (Millard Mitchell) arrive in Dodge City for a shooting contest, in which the prize is a perfectly manufactured Winchester repeating rifle, referred to as "One of a Thousand" -- a gun so fine that Winchester won't sell it. Lin runs across Dutch Henry Brown (Stephen McNally) in a saloon and the ...

It Came from Outer Space

It Came from Outer Space (1953) more movies like this

directed by Jack Arnold
featuring Richard Carlson, Barbara Rush, Charles Drake, Russell Johnson, Kathleen Hughes

It Came From Outer Space is one of a handful of science fiction films from the 1950s that plays as well today as it did on its original release, this despite the fact that its original 3-D elements seem to be lost. It was also the first science fiction effort of director Jack Arnold, and one of three excellent 3-D features that he made (the others ...

Conflict

Conflict (1945) more movies like this

directed by Curtis Bernhardt
featuring Humphrey Bogart, Alexis Smith, Sydney Greenstreet, Rose Hobart, Charles Drake

Filmed some 18 months before its release, Conflict is one of two melodramas in which Humphrey Bogart self-consciously portrayed a wife murderer (the other was The Two Mrs. Carrolls). Bogie plays unhappily married Richard Mason, who concocts a meticulous scheme to kill his shrewish wife, Kathryn (Rose Hobart), so that he'll be free to marry her ...

directed by Archie Mayo
featuring Groucho Marx, Harpo Marx, Chico Marx, Lisette Verea, Charles Drake

After a five-year absence, the Marx Brothers returned to the screen in the independently-produced effort A Night in Casablanca. Originally conceived as a parody of Casablanca (with character names like "Humphrey Bogus" and "Lowen Behold"), the film emerged as a spoof of wartime melodramas in general. Someone has been methodically murdering the ...

Winter Wonderland (1947) more movies like this

directed by Bernard Vorhaus
featuring Lynne Roberts, Charles Drake, Eric Blore

Though Republic's Winter Wonderland sounds like a vehicle for the studio's resident skating star Vera Hruba Ralston, she's nowhere to be seen in this 71-minute comedy. Instead, Lynne Roberts plays heroine Nancy Wheeler, the daughter of a farmer (Roman Bohnen) whose property is in close proximity to a posh skiing lodge. Nancy falls in love with the ...

The Treasure of Lost Canyon

The Treasure of Lost Canyon (1952) more movies like this

directed by Ted Tetzlaff
featuring William Powell, Julie Adams, Charles Drake, Henry Hull, Rosemary de Camp

Gentlemanly William Powell is cast spectacularly but effectively against type in Treasure of the Lost Canyon. Powell plays Doc Brown, a somewhat seedy frontier sawbones who takes orphaned David (Tommy Ivo) under his wing. Doc knows that David is being victimized financially by crooked-attorney Lucius (Henry Hull), but he's in no position to do ...

The Tender Years (1947) more movies like this

directed by Harold D. Schuster
featuring Joe E. Brown, Richard Lyon, Noreen Nash, Charles Drake, Josephine Hutchinson

While appearing in the stage production Harvey, comedian Joe E. Brown was persuaded by director Harold Schuster to accept the atypically serious starring role in The Tender Years. Though hardly his first dramatic film appearance, it was undoubtedly Brown's best. The star is cast as kindly turn-of-the-century rural minister Will Norris, who takes ...
