Laurence Olivier

Laurence Olivier, Robert Newton, Renée Ashershon, Esmond Knight, Leslie Banks, Leo Genn, Felix Aylmer, Janet Burnell
Laurence Olivier's adaptation of Henry V is one of the finest Shakespeare films ever made, full of rousing action, beautiful colors and passionate performances. Henry V is the story of the newly crowned king of England who fights the French for possession of Normandy. Olivier's direction is inventive, beginning the film as if it were a performance ...

Bobby Driscoll, Robert Newton, Basil Sydney, Walter Fitzgerald, Denis O'Dea
The Walt Disney production of the Robert Louis Stevenson classic novel Treasure Island is one of the company's best live-action films of the '50s, and one of the best family-oriented adventures ever filmed. Bobby Driscoll plays Jim Hawkins, a young cabin boy who battles the pirate Long John Silver (Robert Newton) for a treasure. Disney changes the ...

Michael Anderson
featuring
David Niven, Cantinflas, Robert Newton, Shirley MacLaine, Charles Boyer
Razzle-dazzle showman Michael Todd hocked everything he had to make this spectacular presentation of Jules Verne's 1872 novel Around the World in 80 Days, the second film to be lensed in the wide-screen Todd-AO production. Nearly as fascinating as the finished product are the many in-production anecdotes concerning Todd's efforts to pull the wool ...

Robert Wise
featuring
Richard Burton, Robert Newton, Robert Douglas, James Mason, Torin Thatcher, Chips Rafferty
The Desert Rats was a quickly assembled follow-up to 20th Century-Fox's successful war film The Desert Fox. Richard Burton plays an officer in the British Eighth Army, battling Rommel's forces in defense of Tobruk. Put in charge of an Australian unit, Burton rides his men ruthlessly, with laudatory results. He is briefly captured by the Nazis and ...

David Lean
featuring
Robert Newton, Alec Guinness, Kay Walsh, Francis L. Sullivan, John Howard Davies
The second of director David Lean's adaptations of a Charles Dickens novel (Great Expectations (1946) was the first), Oliver Twist expertly boils down an enormous novel to a little less than two hours' screen time. The film begins with baby Oliver left on the doorstep of an orphanage/workhouse by his unwed mother. Proving a difficult charge to the ...

Alfred Hitchcock
featuring
Charles Laughton, Maureen O'Hara, Emlyn Williams, Hay Petrie, Robert Newton, Leslie Banks, Basil Radford, Frederick Piper
Alfred Hitchcock directed this disappointing misfire, memorable solely for the fact is that it is the final film from Hitchcock's early British period before he left for the Hollywood studio system and David O. Selznick. In the England of the 1800s, a group of ruthless smugglers, led by Sir Humphrey Pengallon (Charles Laughton), prey on ships by ...

Long John Silver

directed by
Byron Haskin
featuring
Robert Newton, Kit Taylor, Connie Gilchrist, Eric Reiman, Syd Chambers
Robert Newton repeats his Treasure Island role as Long John Silver in this Australian adventure film--and if anything, Newton is even more out of control this time around than he'd been in the earlier picture. Paying only lip service to the Robert Louis Stevenson original, the film is made up of several marginally related episodes. In the first, ...

Androcles and the Lion

Chester Erskine
featuring
Jean Simmons, Alan Young, Victor Mature, Robert Newton, Maurice Evans
With George Bernard Shaw safely in his grave, RKO chief Howard Hughes had no qualms about twisting and bending Shaw's Androcles & the Lion to accommodate his own notions of entertainment. Happier, wiser heads prevailed before the Hughes-commissioned "Vestal Virgins" sequence, complete with near-naked dancing girls, was foisted on the public. ...

David Lean
featuring
Robert Newton, Celia Johnson, John Mills, Kay Walsh, Stanley Holloway
With This Happy Breed, playwright Noel Coward hoped to glorify the British working class in the same manner that he'd celebrated the "higher orders" in Cavalcade. The film begins just after World War I. Middle-class Londoner Robert Newton hopes to improve his family's lot by moving them into a comparatively posh house in the suburbs. The house is ...

Lewis Milestone
featuring
Michael Rennie, Debra Paget, Robert Newton, Edmund Gwenn, Sylvia Sidney
Not up to the classic 1935 presentation, this is still an excellent adaptation of Victor Hugo's epic novel. The familiar characters of Valjean and Javert and the agonies of injustice are all portrayed convincingly against a backdrop of 18th century France. Tana Hobart, All Movie Guide

directed by
Muriel Box
featuring
Glynis Johns, Robert Newton, Donald Sinden, Paul Rogers, Donald Pleasence
This second film version of Somerset Maugham's Vessel of Wrath lacks the casual charm of the first (which starred Charles Laughton and Elsa Lanchester), but is otherwise quite entertaining. Robert Newton stars as Honorable Ted, a slovenly, bibulous South Sea Island beachcomber. The black sheep of a prominent British family, Ted is paid an annual ...

The 1940 British production of Gaslight was the first of two cinematic adaptations of Patrick Hamilton's play.

Bartlett Cormack, Erich Pommer
featuring
Charles Laughton, Elsa Lanchester, Tyrone Guthrie, Robert Newton, Dolly Mollinger
Based on a story by Somerset Maugham, The Beachcomber was originally released in Great Britain as Vessel of Wrath. This English version was much franker--and much more fun--than the abbreviated, watered-down US release prints. Even the American version, however, is successful in capturing the spirit of Maugham's tale of slovenly remittance man ...
