directed by George Marshall
featuring James Stewart, Marlene Dietrich, Charles Winninger, Mischa Auer, Brian Donlevy

Tom Destry (James Stewart), son of a legendary frontier peacekeeper, doesn't believe in gunplay. Thus he becomes the object of widespread ridicule when he rides into the wide-open town of Bottleneck, the personal fiefdom of the crooked Kent (Brian Donlevy).

Pot O' Gold

Pot O' Gold (1941) more movies like this

directed by George Marshall
featuring James Stewart, Paulette Goddard, Burgess Meredith, Horace Heidt, Charles Winninger, Mary Gordon

James Stewart once classified Pot O' Gold as his worst film, though this may have stemmed from his reported inability to get along with his costar Paulette Goddard (who is supposed to have dismissed Stewart's acting technique with a flippant "Anyone can swallow.") Inspired by the popular radio giveaway series of the same name, the film represented ...

featuring Bob Hope, Paulette Goddard, Richard Carlson, Paul Lukas, Willie Best

Paramount followed up its successful Bob Hope/Paulette Goddard co-starrer The Cat and the Canary (1939) by warming up another venerable "old dark house" stage play, Paul Dickey and Charles Goddard's The Ghost Breaker, pluralizing the title to accommodate both stars. This time Hope plays radio personality Lawrence L. Lawrence (the middle initial ...

This charming tale is about a young girl's father and his slightly erratic behavior after sampling a refreshing alcoholic beverage.

Fancy Pants

Fancy Pants (1950) more movies like this

directed by George Marshall
featuring Bob Hope, Lucille Ball, Bruce Cabot, Jack Kirkwood, Eric Blore, Lea Penman

Fancy Pants is a musicalized remake of the oft-filmed Harry Leon Wilson story Ruggles of Red Gap, tailored to the talents of "Mr. Robert Hope (formerly Bob)". The basic plotline of the original, that of an English butler entering the service of a rowdy nouveau-riche family from the American West, is retained. The major difference is that main ...

Scared Stiff

Scared Stiff is the 1953 remake of the 1940 Bob Hope-Paulette Goddard vehicle The Ghost Breakers, reupholstered for the talents of Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis. While Martin handles the straight plot scenes, just as Hope did in the earlier film, the Hope-like wisecracks are fairly evenly divided between Martin and Lewis. Lewis is for the most part ...

Red Garters

Red Garters (1954) more movies like this

directed by George Marshall
featuring Rosemary Clooney, Jack Carson, Guy Mitchell, Gene Barry

On paper, Red Garters sounds like a wonderful idea: a raucous spoof of westerns, done up in the stylized fashion of a Broadway musical. Rosemary Clooney and Guy Mitchell, both popular recording stars of the era, head the cast as Calaveras Kate and Reb Randall, while Jack Carson is on hand as wheeler-dealer frontier lawyer Jason Carberry. The plot, ...

Texas

Texas (1941) more movies like this

directed by George Marshall
featuring William Holden, Glenn Ford, Claire Trevor, George Bancroft, Edgar Buchanan

Texas was Columbia Pictures' lighthearted (and frankly more enjoyable) follow-up to its 1940 big-budget western Arizona. William Holden and Glenn Ford, looking collectively 28 years old, play a couple of ex-Confederate soldiers who get into all sorts of trouble in a wide-open Texas town. The two split up, whereupon Ford takes a job on Joseph ...

The Goldwyn Follies (1938) more movies like this

directed by George Marshall
featuring Adolphe Menjou, The Ritz Brothers [Al, Jimmy, Harry], Vera Zorina, Kenny Baker, Andrea Leeds

A longtime admirer of Broadway impresario Flo Ziegfeld, Hollywood producer Sam Goldwyn hoped to emulate the success of The Ziegfeld Follies by producing an annual movie-musical revue. Goldwyn's dream began and ended with 1938's Goldwyn Follies, a film centering on Goldwyn-like movie producer Oliver Martin (Adolphe Menjou). It seems that Martin's ...

Monsieur Beaucaire (1946) more movies like this

directed by George Marshall
featuring Bob Hope, Joan Caulfield, Patric Knowles, Cecil Kellaway, Marjorie Reynolds

Monsieur Beaucaire, Booth Tarkington's novel about an 18th-century French barber who poses as a swashbuckling aristocrat, was the surprising source for this Grade-A Bob Hope comedy. While in the original novel the tonsorial hero pretended to be someone he wasn't by choice, in this 1946 film Hope is coerced into posturing as a nobleman on the ...

My Friend Irma (1949) more movies like this

My Friend Irma was supposed to be a straightforward adaptation of the popular radio sitcom of the same name. The film's focus therefore was supposed to be on air-headed Irma Peterson (Marie Wilson), her levelheaded roommate, Jane Stacy (Diana Lynn, taking over from the radio series' Cathy Lewis), and their various romantic misadventures. But the ...

The overall level of humor can be ...

George Marshall directed this mild sex comedy about a showgirl who marries a U.S. Air Force sergeant and puts his love to the test by decreeing her body off-limits to him for a 30-day period (usually something built up to in the course of a marriage over a period of years).

The third of four films bearing the title of The Perils of Pauline, this musical biopic purports to tell the life story of famed silent serial queen Pearl White.
