James Stewart plays a vengeful cow-herder who arrives in New Mexico
determined to find the man who was responsible for the killing of
his brother. His brother was shot down by Apaches armed with

'The Naked Spur' and 'The Far Country', this was the last of the
five classic westerns Stewart made with director Anthony Mann.

Billy Wilder directs and produces this classic film noir starring
Kirk Douglas and Jan Sterling. Chuck Tatum (Douglas) is an
ambitious journalist formerly of the big city who finds himself
working for a small local newspaper in Albuquerque, New Mexico,
after being fired from eleven previous jobs. When he hears that a
man has become trapped in a cave nearby he seeks out the story with
a justification that it has human interest. Realising that this may
be the biggest story he's ever going to write, he manipulates the
rescue workers into changing their plan so as to prolong the drama
for as long as possible. He then finds an unlikely ally in the
victim's wife, Lorraine (Sterling), as she reveals she no longer
loves her husband and wants to get out of the marriage. As hours
turn into days with the rescue attempt failing, Chuck begins to
wonder if this time he has gone too far for a story.
Gary Cooper, Helen Hayes and Adolphe Menjou star in this classic
romantic drama based on Ernest Hemingway's novel and directed by
Frank Borzage. Frederick Henry (Cooper) is an American serving as
an ambulance driver in World War I. When his friend Captain Rinaldi
(Menjou) introduces him to the beautiful English nurse Catherine
Barkley (Hayes), Frederick immediately falls for her. The pair
share a brief idyllic interlude together, but the jealous Rinaldi
does his best to come between them...
A sprawling epic tracing the fortunes of several generations of an
American pioneer family as they move West and cope with the Civil
War. The film's several sections were made by different directors,
including Henry Hathaway and John Ford. Spencer Tracy narrates,
while Henry Fonda, Gregory Peck, James Stewart and John Wayne top
the all-star bill. Not to be confused with the 1970s television
series.
