Young at Heart (1954) more movies like this

directed by Gordon M. Douglas
featuring Doris Day, Frank Sinatra, Gig Young, Ethel Barrymore, Dorothy Malone

Young at Heart is a soft-pedaled, musicalized remake of 1938's Four Daughters.

Keith's new boarder Gig Young, a musical-comedy ...

The Spiral Staircase

The Spiral Staircase (1946) more movies like this

directed by Robert Siodmak
featuring Dorothy McGuire, George Brent, Ethel Barrymore, Kent Smith, Rhonda Fleming

The wonderfully suspenseful psychological drama Spiral Staircase is the prototype of the "old dark house, lady in distress" thriller, full of dark corners, flickering candles and featuring a mysterious, menacing killer whose true identity remains hidden until the end. Helen Capel (Dorothy McGuire), mute because of a childhood trauma, cares for the ...

Rasputin and the Empress

Rasputin and the Empress (1932) more movies like this

directed by Richard Boleslawski
featuring John Barrymore, Ethel Barrymore, Lionel Barrymore, Ralph Morgan, Diana Wynyard

It's hard to separate fact and fancy from the many accounts of what happened on the set when all three of the fabulous Barrymores -- Ethel, John and Lionel -- appeared together for the only time in Rasputin and the Empress. As for the end result, John offers the subtlest (!) performance as Russian Prince Paul Chegodieff; Lionel throws all caution ...

When Loretta Young stepped up to accept her Academy Award for The Farmer's Daughter, the ever-youthful leading lady, who'd been in films since 1928, sighed "At long last!"

That Midnight Kiss

That Midnight Kiss (1949) more movies like this

directed by Norman Taurog
featuring Kathryn Grayson, Mario Lanza, José Iturbi, Ethel Barrymore, Keenan Wynn

That Midnight Kiss served to introduce the film-going public to MGM's newest singing sensation, Mario Lanza. Just as he did with Deanna Durbin at Universal, producer Joe Pasternak removes the "stuffy" onus attached to classical music by presenting Lanza as a down-to-earth truck driver named Johnny Donetti. When it turns out that Johnny has a ...

Just for You

Just for You (1952) more movies like this

directed by Elliott Nugent
featuring Bing Crosby, Jane Wyman, Ethel Barrymore, Robert Arthur, Natalie Wood

Just for You is based very loosely on Stephen Vincent Benet's Famous. Widowed Broadway producer Jordan Blake (Bing Crosby) is too busy with work to pay much attention to his teenaged kids Jerry (Robert Arthur) and Barbara (Natalie Wood). One thing he hasn't noticed is that Jerry isn't really a kid any more. This point is driven home when Jerry ...

None But the Lonely Heart

None But the Lonely Heart (1944) more movies like this

directed by Clifford Odets
featuring Cary Grant, Ethel Barrymore, Barry Fitzgerald, June Duprez, Jane Wyatt

Cary Grant delivered Oscar-calibre performances all his life, but only when he played against type in None But the Lonely Heart did the Academy Awards people break down and give him a nomination. Grant plays a restless, irresponsible cockney who seeks a better life but doesn't seem to have the emotional wherewithal to work for such a life. The ...

The Red Danube (1949) more movies like this

directed by George Sidney
featuring Walter Pidgeon, Ethel Barrymore, Peter Lawford, Angela Lansbury, Janet Leigh

One of the more palatable of Hollywood's anti-communist tracts of the late 1940s-early 1950s was MGM's The Red Danube. Janet Leigh plays Maria Buhlen, an Eastern Bloc ballerina who seeks political asylum in the British-occupied zone of Vienna. Maria's plight turns into a political tug-of-war involving a British colonel (Walter Pidgeon) and a ...
