The Adventures of Robin Hood

The Adventures of Robin Hood (1938) more movies like this

directed by Michael Curtiz, William Keighley
featuring Errol Flynn, Olivia de Havilland, Basil Rathbone, Claude Rains, Patric Knowles

In order to avoid the material copyrighted by Douglas Fairbanks Sr. for his 1922 Robin Hood, the scripters of this Flynn version relied on several legendary episodes that had never before been filmed, notably the battle between Robin and Little John (Alan Hale Sr., who played this part three times in his long career) and the "piggy-back" episode ...

The Wolf Man

The Wolf Man (1941) more movies like this

directed by George Waggner
featuring Lon Chaney, Jr., Claude Rains, Warren William, Evelyn Ankers, Ralph Bellamy, Bela Lugosi, Maria Ouspenskaya, Patric Knowles

"Even a man who is pure at heart/And says his prayers by night/May become a wolf when the wolf-bane blooms/And the moon is full and bright." Upon first hearing these words, Larry Talbot (Lon Chaney) dismisses them as childish folderol. After all, this is the 20th Century; how can a human being turn into a werewolf? Talbot soon learns how when he ...

Frankenstein Meets the Wolfman

Frankenstein Meets the Wolfman (1942) more movies like this

directed by Roy William Neill
featuring Lon Chaney, Jr., Ilona Massey, Patric Knowles, Lionel Atwill, Bela Lugosi

The fifth film in Universal's "Frankenstein" series goes for the box-office gold by combining two--count 'em, two!--of the studio's star monsters. We all thought that Larry Talbot (Lon Chaney Jr.), alias The Wolf Man, had been shot dead in his own starring film in 1941, but the opening scenes of Frankenstein vs. the Wolf Man prove us incorrect. ...

The Charge of the Light Brigade

The Charge of the Light Brigade (1936) more movies like this

directed by Michael Curtiz
featuring Errol Flynn, Olivia de Havilland, Patric Knowles, Henry Stephenson, Donald Crisp, Nigel Bruce

Of the many film versions of Alfred Lord Tennyson's narrative poem, 1936's Charge of the Light Brigade has the least relationship to the facts concerning the famous 19th century British military blunder in the Crimea. Reflecting the popularity of 1935's Lives of A Bengal Lancer, the film uses the climactic charge as the culmination of events which ...

Who Done It?

Who Done It? (1942) more movies like this

directed by Erle C. Kenton
featuring Bud Abbott, Lou Costello, Patric Knowles, William Gargan, Louise Allbritton

With only a minimal romantic subplot and no music whatsoever, Who Done It? is pure, undiluted Bud Abbott and Lou Costello, and a good mystery on its own to boot. Bud and Lou star as Chick Larkin and Mervyn Milgrim, a pair of soda jerks who aspire to become radio detective-show writers (their latest epic is "The Midget Gets the Chair-or, Small Fry" ...

Monsieur Beaucaire

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 ...

directed by Edward Dmytryk

Director Edward Dmytryk returned from a few unhappy years on the Blacklist in the early 1950s, to direct a handful of programmers before being restored to "A" pictures.

Hit the Ice

Hit the Ice (1943) more movies like this

directed by Charles Lamont
featuring Bud Abbott, Lou Costello, Ginny Simms, Patric Knowles, Elyse Knox

The Abbott & Costello vehicle Hit the Ice started life as satire of health clinics, with Lou Costello cast as a hypochondriac who used a streetcar conductor's change-purse to dispense pills to himself. By the time the film hit the screens, it was a standard A&C melange of comedy, music and fast-paced chase scenes, with nary a pill in sight. Bud ...

The Guv'nor (1935) more movies like this

directed by Milton Rosmer
featuring George Arliss, Gene Gerrard, Frank Cellier, Patric Knowles, Viola Keats

Eminent British stage star George Arliss is a most elegant tramp in The Guv'nor. Though shabby and indigent, Arliss seems to have a lot more financial savvy than most of London's established financiers. Through a fluke, Arliss is mistaken as a member of the Rothschild family (the actor did, after all, star in 1934's House of Rothschild) and is ...

This breezy and unpretentious film noir from director Don Siegel starts off with fireworks.

Crazy House (1943) more movies like this

directed by Edward F. Cline
featuring Basil Rathbone, Cass Daley, Patric Knowles, Martha O'Driscoll, Leighton Noble, Thomas Gomez

Olsen and Johnson's followup to their zany, iconoclastic Hellzapoppin' was the more conventional Crazy House. The premise: Having nearly laid waste to Universal while filming Hellzapoppin', O & J are thrown out of the studio when they arrive with plans for a new picture. Only momentarily daunted, our heroes decide to produce the film themselves, ...
