Situation Hopeless - But Not Serious

Gottfried Reinhardt

In 1944, two American fliers are captured by a friendly German who keeps them in his cellar and doesn't tell them the war is over.


Rage In Heaven

W.S. Van Dyke

W.S. Van Dyke directs Ingrid Bergman, George Sanders and Robert Montgomery in a gripping psychological thriller from the pen of celebrated English author Christopher Isherwood. Montgomery plays British steel mill owner Philip Monrell, whose outward charm and flippancy conceal a terrible secret, while Sanders plays Ward Andrews, the best friend Philip hides behind. But when Philip marries Stella Bergen (Bergman), he becomes obsessed with the belief that Ward is trying to steal Stella away from him. An obsession that soon turns to twisted, murderous intent… With the two leading men swapping type (Montgomery as the insouciant cynic with the sinister streak, Sanders as the amiable, self-effacing wit), Rage in Heaven's examination of murderous envy and jealousy takes on deeper layers as the viewer's own assumptions about character and intent are called into question.


Betrayed (1954)

Gottfried Reinhardt

Screen superstars Clark Gable ("Gone With The Wind," "It Happened One Night") and sultry bombshell Lana Turner ("Peyton Place," "The Postman Always Rings Twice") team-up in this intriguing WWII drama. Suspected of being a Nazi spy, Dutch-resistance member Turner is given a last chance mission to redeem herself. Gable is an American colonel who falls in love with her. Co-starring Victor Mature ("My Darling Clementine") and Oscar-nominee Louis Calhern ("The Asphalt Jungle").


Invitation (1952)

Gottfried Reinhardt

No more loneliness. Shy, plain Ellen Bowker has found unexpected fulfillment as the bride of handsome Dan Pierce. What she doesn't know is that Dan was bought and paid for - he's a "gift" from Ellen's wealthy father, who wants his fatally ill daughter to experience romance before she dies. A story that might have been a three-hanky soaper in lesser hands instead exudes luminous emotion, thanks largely to its two stars. As Dan, Van Johnson captures the guilt and untapped decency of a man who falls in love with the woman he married for money. And Dorothy McGuire, whose gentle charm and beauty are ideal for the role, gives a heartbreaking performance as the wife who finally discovers the stunning truth.


The Red Badge of Courage

John Huston

Real war hero Audie Murphy ("To Hell and Back") stars as a young Union soldier who fights to atone for a moment of cowardice during the Civil War. Action-packed drama is based on the Stephen Crane novel and directed by Oscar-winner John Huston ("The Treasure of the Sierra Madre").
