2	Gunga Din (1939) more movies like this directed by George Stevens featuring Cary Grant, Victor McLaglen, Douglas Fairbanks, Jr., Sam Jaffe, Eduardo Ciannelli, Joan Fontaine Though Rudyard Kipling's poem Gunga Din makes a swell recital piece, it cannot be said to have much of a plot. It's simply a crude cockney soldier's tribute to a native Indian water boy who remains at his job even after being mortally wounded. Hardly the sort of material upon which to build 118 minutes' worth of screen time-at least, it wasn't ... see all copies from $2.59! new only from $16.50!

Wylie, the film concentrates on a family of confidence tricksters. Paterfamilias Roland Young poses as a veteran of the ... see all copies from $2.93! new only from $5.49!

She appears as a French model who's come to New York to find a job. Things go a little awry in her first interview when she applies for a nude modeling position and gets the addresses mixed up. When she shows up at the wrong place ... see all copies from $3.70! new only from $6.53!

11	A Woman of Affairs (1928) more movies like this directed by Clarence Brown featuring Greta Garbo, John Gilbert, Lewis Stone, Johnny Mack Brown, Douglas Fairbanks, Jr. Michael Arlen's notorious novel The Green Hat was considered such a hot potato censor-wise that the property's title could not be used when it was adapted to film.

Greta Garbo plays an impulsive British lass who, when denied permission to ... see all copies from $19.97!
