Cabin in the Sky

Cabin in the Sky (1943) more movies like this

directed by Vincente Minnelli
featuring Ethel Waters, Eddie "Rochester" Anderson, Lena Horne, Louis Armstrong, Rex Ingram

MGM knew it would take a bath on its all-black musical Cabin in the Sky (few Southern theaters of 1943 would touch the film), but the studio still provided its standard A-plus production values to the film; besides, it served as a training ground for up-and-coming director Vincente Minnelli. Based on the Broadway musical by Lynn Root, John ...

Death of a Gunfighter (1969) more movies like this

directed by Alan Smithee, Don Siegel, Robert J. Totten
featuring Richard Widmark, Lena Horne, Carroll O'Connor, David Opatoshu, Kent Smith

Famed anonymous director Alan Smithee (in this case a hybrid of Richard Totten and Don Siegel), directed this turgid western drama concerning Marshal Frank Patch (Richard Widmark), who, even though he has kept the peace in Cottonwood Springs for over twenty years, is now considered a local joke by the town liberals who want some new blood in the ...

The Duke Is Tops

The Duke Is Tops (1938) more movies like this

directed by William L. Nolte
featuring Ralph Cooper, Lena Horne, Lawrence Criner, Monte Hawley, Vernon McCalla

Also known as The Duke Is Tops, this is one of the best examples of the many all-black films made in the 1930s for what were then designated as "colored" theatres. Looking about 15 years old, Lena Horne plays the main attraction for the stage shows put on by a fellow named Duke (Ralph Cooper). When she gets a chance at a Broadway show, Lena ...

Words and Music

Words and Music (1948) more movies like this

directed by Norman Taurog
featuring Mickey Rooney, Perry Como, Judy Garland, June Allyson, Lena Horne, Gene Kelly

The life stories of Broadway tunesmiths Richard Rodgers and Lorenz Hart are prettified for the screen in MGM's Words and Music. Billed fourth, the colorless Tom Drake plays Rodgers, but never mind that: the film belongs to Mickey Rooney, as the dynamic, self-destructive Lorenz Hart. Understandably, Hart's bisexuality is downplayed. According to ...

Built around the premise of a Big Stage Show, Stormy Weather affords rare "mainstream" leading roles to some of the era's greatest African-American entertainers Lena Horne, Bill "Bojangles" Robinson, Dooley Wilson, Cab Calloway, Katherine Dunham, Fats Waller, and the Nicholas Brothers. The thinnish plotline -- dancer Robinson has an on-again-off ...
