2	Going My Way (1944) more movies like this directed by Leo McCarey featuring Bing Crosby, Rise Stevens, Barry Fitzgerald, Gene Lockhart, Frank McHugh, James Brown It took some doing to persuade the staunchly Catholic Bing Crosby to play a happy-go-lucky priest in Going My Way; luckily he acquiesced, winning an Academy Award in the process.

To test the depth of their ... see all copies from £2.73! new only from £4.75!

8	Once Upon a Honeymoon (1942) more movies like this directed by Leo McCarey featuring Ginger Rogers, Cary Grant, Walter Slezak, Albert Dekker, Albert Basserman The surrealistic opening sequence, featuring a WW2 calendar as written "by A.

11 view cover	The Milky Way (1936) more movies like this directed by Leo McCarey featuring Harold Lloyd, Adolphe Menjou, Veree Teasdale, Helen Mack, William Gargan One of the funniest, most sharply paced comedies of the 1930s, and perhaps the best of all of Harold Lloyd's talkies, The Milky Way was based on the Broadway play by Lynn Root and Harry Clork. Lloyd plays Burleigh Sullivan, a mild-mannered milkman who intercedes one night when his sister Mae (Helen Mack) is being accosted on the street by two ... see all copies from £4.78! new only from £4.78!

13 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 £11.72! new only from £11.72!

The story opens in Paris, circa 1908. Ruggles, beautifully underplayed by Charles Laughton, is the ultra-obedient manservant to the bibulous Earl of Burnstead (Roland Young). During one of the Earl's nocturnal ... see all copies from £14.26!
15 view cover	Liberty (1929) more movies like this directed by Leo McCarey This Laurel and Hardy short film has a thin plot but plenty of laughs.

Of course, with Laurel and Hardy, ... see all copies from £21.67!
17 view cover	Habeas Corpus (1928) more movies like this directed by James Parrott, Leo McCarey Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy are perhaps unique amongst comedians of the 1920s and 1930s, and their silent and sound films are equally funny. This two-reeler was originally released with music and sound effects; it would be nearly six more months before the boys made their talkie debut. This short (which some claim is not one of the duo's best ... see all copies from £8.16! new only from £8.16!

20	Make Way for Tomorrow (1937) more movies like this directed by Leo McCarey featuring Victor Moore, Beulah Bondi, Fay Bainter, Thomas Mitchell, Ray Mayer While not a box-office success, this drama, directed by Leo McCarey, developed a potent reputation among film critics and movie buffs for its sensitive and perceptive treatment of the problems of the elderly. When McCarey won the Oscar for Best Director the same year for The Awful Truth, he remarked that the Academy gave him the award for the ... see all copies from £52.58! new only from £52.58!
