1	It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World (1963) more movies like this directed by Stanley Kramer featuring Spencer Tracy, Milton Berle, Sid Caesar, Buddy Hackett, Mickey Rooney, Ethel Merman, Phil Silvers, Dick Shawn, Jimmy Durante, Buster Keaton With this all-star Cinerama epic, producer/director Stanley Kramer vowed to make "the comedy that would end all comedies." The story begins during a massive traffic jam, caused by reckless driver Smiler Grogan (Jimmy Durante), who, before (literally) kicking the bucket, cryptically tells the assembled drivers that he's buried a fortune in stolen ... see all copies from $2.46! new only from $10.69!

3	The Great Rupert (1950) more movies like this directed by Irving Pichel featuring Jimmy Durante, Terry Moore, Tom Drake, Frank Orth, Sara Haden Jimmy Durante plays the patriarch of a down-on-their-luck family of acrobats, who suddenly finds a great deal of money hidden in his house amid the depths of the Great Depression.

4	The Man Who Came to Dinner (1941) more movies like this directed by William Keighley featuring Bette Davis, Ann Sheridan, Monty Woolley, Billie Burke, Jimmy Durante, Richard Travis The George S. Kaufman/Moss Hart Broadway hit The Man Who Came to Dinner was inspired by the authors' mutual friend, waspish critic/author Alexander Woollcott. Generously bearded ex-Yale professor Monty Woolley, no mean curmudgeon himself, plays the Woollcott character, here rechristened Sheridan Whiteside. While on a lecture tour in Ohio, ... see all copies from $15.80! new only from $15.80!
5	Little Miss Broadway (1938) more movies like this directed by Irving Cummings featuring Shirley Temple, George Murphy, Jimmy Durante, Phyllis Brooks, Edna May Oliver Child star Shirley Temple was getting a bit long in the tooth (at age 10!) by the time she made Little Miss Broadway. Facing the possibility that Temple's appeal was beginning to slip, the producers overstocked the film with top musical-comedy performers and character actors. The curly-topped actress is cast as orphan girl Betsy Brown, discharged ... see all copies from $2.95! new only from $9.95!
6	Speak Easily (1932) more movies like this directed by Edward Sedgwick featuring Buster Keaton, Jimmy Durante, Ruth Selwyn, Thelma Todd, Hedda Hopper Buster Keaton's best sound feature casts the Great Stone Face as Professor Post, a naïve college pedant who mistakenly believes he has inherited $750,000.

Enchanted by the ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $2.99!
7	Billy Rose's Jumbo (1962) more movies like this directed by Charles Walters featuring Doris Day, Stephen Boyd, Jimmy Durante, Martha Raye, Dean Jagger Inasmuch as the spectacular Richard Rodgers and Lorenz Hart Broadway musical Jumbo was written in 1935, this 1962 film version can't help but seem a little quaint. Still, the film features the original production's star Jimmy Durante, energetically recreating his stage role as circus owner Pop Wonder; it is Durante's bravura performance that saves ... see all copies from $12.00! new only from $15.48!
8	Palooka (1934) more movies like this directed by Benjamin Stoloff featuring Jimmy Durante, Lupe Velez, Stuart Erwin, Robert Armstrong, Mary Carlisle Based on the popular comic strip by Ham Fisher, this fast-paced and funny boxing outing follows the exploits of a boxing manager and the up-and-coming fighter he mentors to.

9	Two Girls and a Sailor (1944) more movies like this directed by Richard Thorpe featuring Van Johnson, June Allyson, Gloria de Haven, Jimmy Durante, Lena Horne Two Girls and a Sailor is another of those all-star, no-plot wartime musicals turned out by the bushel basket in the 1940s. Its lack of nuance does not lessen its entertainment value in the least. Gloria DeHaven and June Allyson play a couple of well-meaning sisters who stage their own USO shows in their apartment for the benefit of visiting ... see all copies from $26.99!
10	Melody Ranch (1940) more movies like this directed by Joseph Santley featuring Gene Autry, Jimmy Durante, Ann Miller, Barton MacLane, Barbara Jo Allen Beautifully restored to its original theatrical length of 84 minutes by the Gene Autry Foundation, Melody Ranch is a bright, tuneful, and at times quite action-packed piece of B-Western extravaganza, Republic style. The victim of both a drop in ratings and a tardy leading lady, radio star Gene Autry is only too happy to oblige when old friend Pop ... see all copies from $15.39! new only from $15.39!
11 view cover	On an Island with You (1948) more movies like this directed by Richard Thorpe featuring Esther Williams, Peter Lawford, Ricardo Montalban, Jimmy Durante, Cyd Charisse The title of this MGM musical alone should tip you to the fact that Esther Williams is the star. In this one, she plays a movie star (what an innovation!), Rosalind Reynolds, who is on location in Hawaii to shoot a picture. Peter Lawford plays the film's naval technical advisor, Lt. Lawrence Y. Kingslee, who naturally falls deeply in love with ... see all copies from $16.00! new only from $20.95!
12 view cover	It Happened in Brooklyn (1947) more movies like this directed by Richard Whorf featuring Frank Sinatra, Kathryn Grayson, Peter Lawford, Jimmy Durante, Gloria Grahame It Happened in Brooklyn was released at a time when the mere mention of the eponymous New York borough elicited loud laughter and extended applause. Frank Sinatra stars as ex-GI Danny Webson Miller, who makes a sentimental journey to the Brooklyn neighborhood where he grew up. Danny moves in with an old pal, high school janitor Nick Lombardi ... see all copies from $3.46! new only from $12.36!
13 view cover	Two Sisters from Boston (1946) more movies like this directed by Henry Koster featuring Kathryn Grayson, June Allyson, Lauritz Melchior, Jimmy Durante, Peter Lawford By 1946, MGM's musical output was in the hands of two men: the incisive, progressive Arthur Freed, and the sentimental, old-fashioned Joe Pasternak. It was Pasternak who held the reins on Two Sisters from Boston, a period piece set in New York. June Allyson and Kathryn Grayson arrive fresh from prim 'n' proper Boston, only to secure work as ... see all copies from $17.98!
14 view cover	Hollywood Party (1934) more movies like this directed by Allan Dwan, Charles "Chuck" Riesner, Edmund Goulding, George Stevens, Richard Boleslawski, Roy Rowland, Sam Wood featuring Jimmy Durante, Charles Butterworth, Lupe Velez, Polly Moran Hollywood Party was planned as a lavish, star-studded MGM musical titled Hollywood Revue of 1933 . Under the less-than-sterling guidance of "kicked upstairs" MGM producer Harry Rapf, production dragged on interminably, using up the talents of five directors (none of whom were credited) and seven writers. The "all star" cast lineup slowly dwindled ... see all copies from $6.87!
