From The Great Beyond, Joe details the circumstances of his untimely demise (originally, the film contained a ... see all copies from $2.95! new only from $6.98!

5	As You Desire Me (1932) more movies like this directed by George Fitzmaurice featuring Greta Garbo, Melvyn Douglas, Erich Von Stroheim, Owen Moore, Hedda Hopper This complex '30s film is based upon a play by Pirandello which involved a hapless amnesiac.

6	Crimson Romance (1934) more movies like this directed by David Howard featuring Ben Lyon, Sara Maritza, Erich Von Stroheim, Hardie Albright, James Bush Often written off as just another Poverty Row effort featuring a fallen-from-grace Erich Von Stroheim, Mascot Pictures' Crimson Romance is actually a slick, entertaining little drama about broken dreams and dashed ideals. When World War I breaks out, a pair of German/American lads (Ben Lyon and Hardie Albright) return to their parents' homeland to ... see all copies from $5.00! new only from $5.00!
7	The Mask of Diijon (1946) more movies like this directed by Lew Landers featuring Erich Von Stroheim, Jeanne Bates, William Wright, Edward Van Sloan, Mauritz Hugo Erich Von Stroheim's bravura performance is easily the most entertaining aspect of The Mask of Diijon, though it should be noted that the film itself is better than usual for a PRC production. "The Man You Love to Hate" is cast as Diijon, a stage magician specializing in a gruesome guillotine act. Long retired, Diijon refuses to return to work, ... see all copies from $2.84! new only from $26.51!
8	The Great Gabbo (1929) more movies like this directed by James Cruze featuring Erich Von Stroheim, Betty Compson After the disastrous failure of Queen Kelly, the great silent film director Eric Von Stroheim began to parcel himself out as an actor-for-hire, his directing career in tatters.

He came upon the subject matter on a trip to England to promote ... see all copies from $4.98! new only from $4.98!
