The Secret Life of Walter Mitty (1947) more movies like this

directed by Norman Z. McLeod
featuring Danny Kaye, Virginia Mayo, Boris Karloff, Fay Bainter, Ann Rutherford

James Thurber wasn't too happy with the Sam Goldwyn film adaptation of his 1939 short story The Secret Life of Walter Mitty, but the Technicolor musical comedy proved to be a cash cow at the box office. Danny Kaye stars as Walter, a milquetoast proofreader for a magazine publishing firm. Walter is constitutionally incapable of standing up for ...

White Heat

White Heat (1949) more movies like this

directed by Raoul Walsh
featuring James Cagney, Virginia Mayo, Edmond O'Brien, Steve Cochran, Margaret Wycherly

In later years, James Cagney regarded White Heat with a combination of pride and regret; while satisfied with his own performance, he tended to dismiss the picture as a "cheap melodrama." Seen today, White Heat stands as one of the classic crime films of the 1940s, containing perhaps Cagney's best bad-guy portrayal. The star plays criminal ...

One of Richard's objectives during the Crusades is to reclaim the Holy Grail from Saladin ...
