directed by
Cecil B. DeMille
featuring
Thomas Meighan, Gloria Swanson, Lila Lee, Bebe Daniels, Theodore Roberts
Don't let that title fool you: Male and Female is really James M. Barrie's The Admirable Crichton, as interpreted by Cecil B. DeMille. Thomas Meighan plays Crichton, the very proper butler in the British household of Lord Loam (Theodore Roberts). When masters and servants go on a yachting excursion, the vessel is destroyed in a storm, marooning ...

directed by
Raoul Walsh, William Cameron Menzies
featuring
Lionel Barrymore, Blanche Frederici, Gloria Swanson, James Marcus, Raoul Walsh, Charles Lane
Rain, the famous John Colton-Clemence Randolph theatrical adaptation of Somerset Maugham's short story about religious hypocrisy, was such a "hot potato" in 1928 that the Hays Office, Hollywood's self-appointed censorship bureau, would not allow the play to be filmed under its original title. Thus, the silent film version of Rain went out as Sadie ...

Leo McCarey
featuring
Gloria Swanson, Ben Lyon, Monroe Owsley, Barbara Kent, Arthur Lake
Divesting herself of her own production company, silent-screen queen Gloria Swanson entered into a two-picture deal with producer Joseph M.

Sam Wood
featuring
Gloria Swanson, Rudolph Valentino, Edythe Chapman, Alec B. Francis, Robert Bolder
This picture did great at the box office, and no wonder -- Paramount's biggest star of the day, Gloria Swanson, co-starred with Rudolph Valentino (whose fame was so new that his first name was still being spelled "Rodolph"), in a story written by the most famous trashy novelist of the day, Elinor Glyn. There was no way this romantic drama could ...

Erich Von Stroheim
featuring
Gloria Swanson, Seena Owen, Walter Byron, William Von Brincken, Madge Hunt
Though filmmaker Erich Von Stroheim's notorious profligacy had made him virtually unhirable in the US by 1929, screen-star Gloria Swanson still had faith in him. She poured a great deal of her own money in Von Stroheim's last silent film, Queen Kelly, and agreed to play the leading role to insure box-office success. When production began, Stroheim ...
