Imitation of Life

Imitation of Life (1959) more movies like this

directed by Douglas Sirk
featuring Lana Turner, John Gavin, Juanita Moore, Sandra Dee, Dan O'Herlihy, Robert Alda, Susan Kohner

This glamorized remake of the 1934 film Imitation of Life bears only a passing resemblance to its source, the best-selling novel by Fannie Hurst. Originally, the heroine was a widowed mother who kept the wolf from the door by setting up a successful pancake business with her black housemaid. In the remake, Lana Turner stars as a would-be actress ...

directed by Fritz Lang
featuring Gary Cooper, Lilli Palmer, Robert Alda, Vladimir Sokoloff, J. Edward Bromberg, Marjorie Hoshelle

Inspired by actual events, Cloak and Dagger was first major "atomic power" melodrama of the postwar era.

Rhapsody in Blue

Rhapsody in Blue (1945) more movies like this

directed by Irving Rapper
featuring Robert Alda, Joan Leslie, Alexis Smith, Charles Coburn, Julie Bishop, Oscar Levant

There's slightly more fancy than fact in this lavish film biography of legendary American composer George Gershwin, but oh! That music! Director Irving Rapper had wanted Tyrone Power to play Gershwin, but Power was still serving in the Marines, so Rapper had to settle for Robert Alda--who isn't bad at all, just a trifle over-enthusiastic. The film ...

The Beast with Five Fingers (1946) more movies like this

directed by Robert Florey

This movie is an early horror film classic and certainly one that a well-rounded horror movie aficionado should not miss. An invalid concert pianist dies, leaving a will that does not include his personal secretary Hilary Cummins (Peter Lorre) as a beneficiary. Furious, the left-out yes-man cuts off a hand from the corpse and plots revenge. ...

The Man I Love

The Man I Love (1946) more movies like this

directed by John Maxwell, Raoul Walsh
featuring Ida Lupino, Robert Alda, Andrea King, Martha Vickers, Bruce Bennett

Ida "Don't mess with me" Lupino takes a job as a singer in Robert Alda's seedy Santa Monica nitery. Lupino ignores Alda's advances to cultivate a romance with pianist Bruce Bennett. Alda uses his connections with the Mob to break up the relationship--and also, hopefully, to break up Bennett into little pieces. Logic is not the film's strong suit, ...

I Will, I Will for Now (1976) more movies like this

directed by Norman Panama
featuring Elliott Gould, Diane Keaton, Paul Sorvino, Victoria Principal, Robert Alda

Norman Panama directed and wrote (along with Albert E. Lewin) this mediocre piece of fluff about unhappily divorced marriage partners. Elliot Gould stars as Les Bingham, who takes umbrage that his ex-wife Katie (Diane Keaton) has a new love in life. What Les doesn't realize is that her new paramour is lawyer Lou Springer (Paul Sorvino). When Katie ...
