Support Your Local Gunfighter
Mastered in HD! The Wild West just got wilder... and a whole lot wackier! James Garner (Support Your Local Sheriff) is back in the saddle again in Support Your Local Gunfighter, a powder keg of laughs co-starring Suzanne Pleshette, Jack Elam, Harry Morgan, Joan Blondell, Marie Windsor, Henry Jones, Dub Taylor and Chuck Connors. Hustling gigolo Latigo Smith (Garner) arrives in a mining town for an operation, but while in town he overhears that the local mining baron Taylor Barton (Morgan) is looking to hire the notorious gunman, Swifty Morgan to wipeout his competition. Seizing the opportunity for an easy con, Smith passes off a reprobate cowhand, Jug (Elam) as the dreaded Swifty - with bankroll in-hand, he plans to head for the hills at first opportunity. Complicating matters are Barton's suspicious pistol-packin' daughter, Patience (Pleshette) and the arrival of the real Swifty Morgan (Connors). Now, can Smith come up with a scheme to save Jug's hide, stop the mining feud and win over Patience or will he end up blowing up the entire town?

Footlight Parade
Footlight Parade is sheer cinematic joy. In this Depression-era romp, a timid stenographer (Ruby Keeler) removes her glasses and wow! She's a star. A gee-whiz tenor (Dick Powell) asserts his independence. Plucky chorines tap, greedy hangers-on get their comeuppances, and an indefatigable producer/dancer (James Cagney) and his Girl Friday (Joan Blondell) work showbiz miracles to stage live prologues for talkie houses to keep their company afloat during hard times. Honeymoon Hotel, By a Waterfall and Shanghai Lil are the shows, directed by Busby Berkeley and filled with imagination-bending sets, startling camera angles, kaleidoscopic pageantry and a 20,000-gallon-per-minute waterfall.

Mr.Dodd geht nach Hollywood (
Das Colossal Filmstudio steht vor dem Ruin. Finanzexperte Atterbury Dodd (Leslie Howard) soll prüfen, was noch zu retten ist. Vom Betrieb in Hollywood versteht er jedoch überhaupt nichts, sodass er auf die Hilfe des einstigen Kinderstars Lester Plum (Joan Blondell) zählt.

Advance to the Rear
In the war between the blue and the gray, one soldier is yellow! When a cantankerous Union colonel is labeled a coward after his horse bolts for the rear, the brass puts him in command of a company of the brainless and brawn less and sends them all West. The idea is to keep the misfits out of action. Instead, they ride straight into slapstick encounters with a pretty spy, a passel of happy-go-lucky harlots, a shipment of Union gold and a wily band of Johnny Rebs. Destry Rides Again director George Marshall takes the reins of another frontier comedy and brings a dandy cast with him: Glenn Ford, Melvyn Douglas and a rowdy roster of Hollywood character stars that stretches from Jim Backus to Joan Blondell.- Shop: odax
