SYNOPSES

Scarface (1932)

One of the most influential movies of all time, the original Scarface is an exciting story of organized crime's brutal control over Chicago during the Prohibition era. Academy Award ®-winner Paul Muni gives an electrifying performance as Tony Carmonte, an ambitious criminal with a ruthless drive to be the city's top crime boss. Produced by the legendary Howard Hughes and directed by Howard Hawks, this compelling tale of ambition, betrayal and revenge is a groundbreaking masterpiece that influenced all gangster films to follow. Filmed during the "pre-code" era before censorship shaped the way movies were made, Leonard Maltin declares "this powerful gangster film is the most potent of the 1930s!"

No Man of Her Own

Legendary Hollywood couple Clark Gable and Carole Lombard illuminate the screen in the screwball comedy No Man of Her Own, their one-and-only performance together! When New York con man Babe Stewart (Gable) decides to lie low in a small town, he falls for a librarian (Lombard) seeking adventure and a way out of her predictable existence. Gambling on marriage, they head back to the city where Stewart tries to hide his scandalous former life from his new bride. Featuring the scandalous "Lombard on a ladder" scene which prompted the founding of Hollywood's League of Decency, No Man of Her Own captures two of the silver screen's most popular stars at their best!

So Proudly We Hail

Academy Award ®-winner Claudette Colbert, Paulette Goddard and Veronica Lake star in this passionate film about brave American Army nurses during World War II. Determined to serve her country in its darkest hour, Lt. Janet Davidson (Colbert) leads a group of spirited women through the struggles and challenges of military camp. From the bombing of Pearl Harbor to the time they are shipped home, these courageous women tirelessly treat the wounded despite constant reminders of danger, romance and heartbreak. Based on a true story, So Proudly We Hail is "still entertaining" (Leonard Maltin's Classic Movie Guide) and continues to inspire audiences today with its stunning portraits of American heroism.

Unconquered

Discover the lavish spectacle, sizzling romance and intense drama of Cecil B. DeMille's vivid pre-Revolutionary settlers vs. Indians saga! Academy Award ® winner Gary Cooper stars as peace-loving Captain Christopher Holden, a militiaman who buys and then frees beautiful English slave Abby Hale (Paulette Goddard). When a supplier of illegal firearms covets Abby for himself, he sparks a vicious battle between an Indian tribe and the few brave colonists. "Primitive in its passion; exciting in its action; colorful and spectacular in its pageantry" (Hollywood Reporter), Unconquered is an epic accomplishment that captures an important period in American history!
