3	Mildred Pierce (1945) more movies like this directed by Michael Curtiz featuring Joan Crawford, Jack Carson, Zachary Scott, Eve Arden, Ann Blyth Joan Crawford won an Academy Award for her bravura portrayal of the titular heroine in Mildred Pierce.

5	Gentleman Jim (1942) more movies like this directed by Raoul Walsh featuring Errol Flynn, Alexis Smith, Jack Carson, Alan Hale, John Loder Maybe Errol Flynn was never the war hero that he often played, but he was a capable boxer, and Gentleman Jim makes full use of this skill. Flynn stars as Jim Corbett, the 19th-century American pugilist who introduced "scientific" methods to bare-knuckle boxing.

6	Mr. & Mrs. Smith (1941) more movies like this directed by Alfred Hitchcock featuring Carole Lombard, Robert Montgomery, Gene Raymond, Jack Carson, Philip Merivale In Hitchcock's rare foray into comedy (courtesy of a wittily risque script by Norman Krasna), Mr. Smith (Robert Montgomery) makes the mistake of telling Mrs. Smith (Carole Lombard) that if he had it to do all over again, he might not have married her. Shortly thereafter, Mr. Smith discovers that his marriage is invalid. Rather than say goodbye, ... see all copies from £1.36! new only from £2.73!
7	Love Crazy (1941) more movies like this directed by Jack Conway featuring William Powell, Myrna Loy, Gail Patrick, Jack Carson, Florence Bates William Powell and Myrna Loy re-team for this (literally) crazy screwball comedy about a happily married couple who, thanks to a visit from mother, find their marriage on the rocks and the husband committed to a mental institution.

8	The Bride Came C.O.D. (1941) more movies like this directed by William Keighley featuring James Cagney, Bette Davis, Stuart Erwin, Jack Carson, Eugene Pallette Neither James Cagney nor Bette Davis were particularly pleased with the outdated screwball comedy The Bride Came C.O.D., but both performers behaved with thorough professionalism, doing a lot more for the film than the film did for them. Davis stars as flighty heiress Joan Winfield, whose impending marriage to bandleader Allen Brice (Jack Carson) ... see all copies from £10.39! new only from £10.39!

11 view cover	My Dream Is Yours (1949) more movies like this directed by Michael Curtiz featuring Doris Day, Jack Carson, Lee Bowman, Adolphe Menjou, Eve Arden My Dream Is Yours is a Technicolor remake of the jaunty 1934 Warner Bros. musical Twenty Million Sweethearts. But there's a significant difference here: whereas in the earlier film singing-waiter Dick Powell was turned into a crooning idol, in the remake it is Doris Day who is catapulted to stardom. Jack Carson (who was reportedly romantically ... see all copies from £2.73! new only from £10.39!
12 view cover	A Star is Born (1954) more movies like this directed by George Cukor featuring Judy Garland, James Mason, Jack Carson, Charles Bickford, Tommy Noonan The 1954 musical remake of A Star is Born could have been titled A Star is Reborn , in that it represented the triumphal return to the screen of Judy Garland after a four-year absence. The remake adheres closely to the plotline of the 1937 original: An alcoholic film star, on his last professional legs, gives a career boost to a unknown aspiring ... see all copies from £2.73! new only from £4.71!
13 view cover	Carefree (1938) more movies like this directed by Mark Sandrich featuring Fred Astaire, Ginger Rogers, Ralph Bellamy, Luella Gear, Jack Carson It's more Ginger Rogers than Fred Astaire, and more comedy than singing and dancing in this Astaire-Rogers entry into the screwball comedy sweepstakes which features a top-of-the-line Irving Berlin score (Change Partners, I Used to be Color Blind, The Night is Filled with Music). Fred Astaire plays Dr. Tony Flagg, a psychiatrist, who enters the ... see all copies from £2.73! new only from £7.44!
14 view cover	The Groom Wore Spurs (1951) more movies like this directed by Richard Whorf featuring Ginger Rogers, Jack Carson, Joan Davis, Stanley Ridges, James Brown Since someone had already used the title The Bride Wore Boots, it follows that there'd eventually be a film called The Groom Wore Spurs. Jack Carson stars as movie cowboy hero Ben Castle, who in "real life" is exactly the opposite of his screen image. When Castle gets into a scrape in Las Vegas, he is bailed out by lady lawyer Abigail Furnival ... see all copies from £4.46! new only from £4.46!
15 view cover	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, ... see all copies from £7.85! new only from £22.88!
16 view cover	The Tarnished Angels (1957) more movies like this directed by Douglas Sirk featuring Rock Hudson, Robert Stack, Dorothy Malone, Jack Carson, Robert Middleton William Faulkner's novel Pylon was optioned by Universal producer Albert Zugsmith, who used it as the source for his 1957 production The Tarnished Angels.

New Orleans newspaperman Rock Hudson runs across Stack at a two ... see all copies from £5.63!
17 view cover	The Bramble Bush (1960) more movies like this directed by Daniel Petrie featuring Richard Burton, Barbara Rush, Jack Carson, Angie Dickinson, James Dunn In this high-gloss soap opera (not dissimilar to the then-popular Peyton Place), Guy (Richard Burton) is a doctor who returns to the New England town where he grew up to help care for his good friend Larry (Tom Drake), who is dying of Hodgkins Disease. Guy gets to know Larry's wife Margaret (Barbara Rush), and a strong attraction quickly develops ... see all copies from £5.98!
18 view cover	The Strawberry Blonde (1941) more movies like this directed by Raoul Walsh featuring James Cagney, Olivia de Havilland, Rita Hayworth, Jack Carson, Alan Hale Strawberry Blonde is the second, and by far the most well-regarded, of the three film versions of James Hogan's play One Sunday Afternoon. James Cagney stars as Biff Grimes, a turn-of-the-century dentist married to onetime suffragette Amy Lind (Olivia de Havilland). A former convict, Biff has great difficulty keeping his temper--and when alderman ... see all copies from £14.33!
19 view cover	Rally 'round the Flag, Boys! (1958) more movies like this directed by Leo McCarey featuring Paul Newman, Joanne Woodward, Joan Collins, Jack Carson, Dwayne Hickman, Joseph Holland Director Leo McCarey was clearly past his prime when he made this screen version of Max Shulman's comic novel Rally 'Round the Flag, Boys; still, the film was a success, no small thanks to the star power of real-life husband and wife Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward. The scene is Putnam's Landing, Connecticut, where commuter Harry Bannerman (Paul ... see all copies from £11.71! new only from £11.71!
20 view cover	The Good Humor Man (1950) more movies like this directed by Lloyd Bacon featuring Jack Carson, Lola Albright, Jean Wallace, George Reeves, Gerald Perreau-Saissine In the tradition of Red Skelton's The Fuller Brush Man and The Yellow Cab Man comes The Good Humor Man, with Jack Carson subbing for Skelton this time out. Carson plays Biff Jones, who when not peddling Good Humor ice cream carries on a romance with perky Margie Bellew (Lola Albright). Through a series of incredible circumstances, poor Biff is set ... see all copies from £21.84!

22 view cover	Blues in the Night (1941) more movies like this directed by Anatole Litvak featuring Priscilla Lane, Betty Field, Richard Whorf, Lloyd Nolan, Jack Carson, Elia Kazan The big-band mystique of the 1940s was explored by Blues in the Night. Future directors Richard Whorf and Elia Kazan star as, respectively, a neurotic band-leader and a carefree clarinettist. Their jazz band travels from one small-time gig to another, always hoping for their big break but always denied fame thanks to their own personal demons. ... see all copies from £10.92! new only from £10.92!
