2	The Dark Corner (1946) more movies like this directed by Henry Hathaway featuring Lucille Ball, Clifton Webb, Mark Stevens, William Bendix, Cathy Downs This grade-A example of "film noir" stars Mark Stevens as Brad Galt, an embittered ex-convict who returns to the private detective business upon his release. Sour and surly, Galt behaves himself only when he's around his faithful and adoring secretary Kathleen (top-billed Lucille Ball).

3	The Blue Dahlia (1946) more movies like this directed by George Marshall featuring Alan Ladd, Veronica Lake, William Bendix, Howard Da Silva, Doris Dowling This neat, fast-paced perfectly cast film noir reflects the hard-boiled, grim wit of the author of its screenplay, Raymond Chandler.

Johnny and Helen have a terrible fight, and later Helen is found dead. Johnny ... see all copies from $8.00!
4	Detective Story (1951) more movies like this directed by William Wyler featuring Kirk Douglas, Eleanor Parker, William Bendix, Lee Grant, Bert Freed, Cathy O'Donnell, George Macready Sidney Kingsley's Broadway play Detective Story was praised for its realistic view of an event-filled day in a single police precinct station. The film, directed by meticulous taskmaster William Wyler, manages to retain this realism, even allowing for the star-turn performance of Kirk Douglas. A stickler for the letter of the law, Detective James ... see all copies from $7.88! new only from $10.89!
5	The Time of Your Life (1948) more movies like this directed by H.C. Potter featuring James Cagney, Marlene Ammes, James Barton, William Bendix, Reginald Beane, Wayne Morris, Jeanne Cagney, Broderick Crawford, Gladys Blake After turning down several other Hollywood producers, playwright William Saroyan sold the film rights of his whimsical Pulitzer Prize-winning play The Time of Your Life to James and William Cagney.

Joe (James Cagney), a philosophical souse, encourages ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
6	Macao (1952) more movies like this directed by Josef von Sternberg featuring Robert Mitchum, Jane Russell, William Bendix, Thomas Gomez, Gloria Grahame The tendency is to scoff at Macao as just another example of Josef von Sternberg's late-career exercises in exoticism; true, it has its problems, including a weak plot and a slightly hasty pace, but it is still an extraordinary film for its time and its personnel. The real sparkplug for the movie is Jane Russell as out-of-work singer Julie Benson, ... see all copies from $14.90! new only from $14.90!
7	Woman of the Year (1942) more movies like this directed by George Stevens featuring Spencer Tracy, Katharine Hepburn, Fay Bainter, Reginald Owen, William Bendix Spencer Tracy and Katharine Hepburn costarred for the first time in the delectable romantic comedy Woman of the Year.

8	The Glass Key (1942) more movies like this directed by Stuart Heisler featuring Brian Donlevy, Veronica Lake, Alan Ladd, Bonita Granville, Richard Denning, William Bendix Dashiel Hammett's The Glass Key, a tale of big-city political corruption, was first filmed in 1935, with Edward Arnold as a duplicitous political boss and George Raft as his loyal lieutenant.

9	Guadalcanal Diary (1943) more movies like this directed by Lewis Seiler featuring Preston S. Foster, Lloyd Nolan, William Bendix, Richard Conte, Anthony Quinn 20th Century-Fox's 1943 filmization of Richard Tregaskis' best-selling book Guadalcanal Diary does full justice to the spare, lean prose of Tregaskis' eyewitness account. The incidents in the "diary" are tied together by an off-screen narrator into a cohesive storyline. The principal characters in this wartime chronicle are marine sergeant Lloyd ... see all copies from $2.95! new only from $10.69!
10	The Babe Ruth Story (1948) more movies like this directed by Roy Del Ruth featuring William Bendix, Claire Trevor, Charles Bickford, Sam Levene, William Frawley The Plan 9 From Outer Space of baseball biopics, The Babe Ruth Story is definitely in the "So Bad It's Good" category.

17	The Hairy Ape (1944) more movies like this directed by Alfred Santell featuring William Bendix, Susan Hayward, John Loder, Dorothy Comingore, Alan Napier, Roman Bohnen Despite a few Hollywood compromises, The Hairy Ape remains one of the more artistically successful filmizations of Eugene O'Neill.
