The Thin Man

The Thin Man (1934) more movies like this

directed by W.S. Van Dyke
featuring William Powell, Myrna Loy, Maureen O'Sullivan, Nat Pendleton, Minna Gombell

Filmed on what MGM considered a B-picture budget and schedule (14 days, which at Universal or Columbia would have been considered extravagant), The Thin Man proved to be "sleeper," spawning a popular film, radio, and television series. Contrary to popular belief, the title does not refer to star William Powell, but to Edward Ellis, playing the ...

Northwest Passage

Northwest Passage (1940) more movies like this

directed by Jack Conway, King Vidor
featuring Spencer Tracy, Robert Young, Walter Brennan, Ruth Hussey, Nat Pendleton

Kenneth Roberts' fact-based novel Northwest Passage would seem too raw and explicit a book to be considered for an MGM film adaptation-much less one in Technicolor. Amazingly, MGM retained many of the grim episodes from the Roberts' novel, though - thanks to the Hays Code - most are discussed rather than shown. The film is set in 1759, when the ...

Trapped by Television

directed by Del Lord
featuring Mary Astor, Lyle Talbot, Nat Pendleton, Joyce Compton, Thurston Hall

Back in 1936 it was assumed that, once perfected, television would be a two-way device, enabling viewers to transmit as well as receive.

He is financed by crooked businessman Curtis (Thurston Hall), ...

Scared to Death

Scared to Death (1947) more movies like this

directed by William Christy Cabanne
featuring Bela Lugosi, Douglas Fowley, Joyce Compton, George Zucco, Nat Pendleton

Completed several years before its 1947 release, Scared to Death is historically important as Bela Lugosi's only color film (outside of his brief unbilled appearance in 1931's Fifty Million Frenchmen, which today exists only in black & white). Other than that, it's a dreary story of how a beautiful but treacherous young woman (Molly Lamont) ...
