  | | The Major and the Minor [VHS] by Ginger Rogers, Ray Milland, Rita Johnson, Robert Benchley, Diana Lynn, Leo Tover, Billy Wilder, Doane Harrison, Arthur Hornblow Jr., Charles Brackett, Edward Childs Carpenter, Fanny Kilbourne, directed by Billy Wilder Vhs Tape, Published 1998 by Universal Studios Black & White, Closed-Captioned, Ntsc ISBN-13: 978-0-7832-1894-6, ISBN: 0-7832-1894-X "On her first day of work, Sue Applegate (Ginger Rogers) has to escape the clutches of a lecherous client (Robert Benchley, whose favorite line is "Why don't you slip out of that wet coat and into a dry martini?"). Fed up with the big city, Sue decides to head home to Iowa with the precious $27.50 train fare she's kept in a sealed envelope since her arrival. The fare has gone up, however, and she is forced to pose as a 12-year-old to b ..." |
 | | Foreign Correspondent [VHS] by Joel Mccrea, Laraine Day, Herbert Marshall, George Sanders, Albert Bassermann, Robert Benchley, Rudolph Maté, Dorothy Spencer, Ben Hecht, Charles Bennett, James Hilton, Joan Harrison, directed by Alfred Hitchcock Vhs Tape, Published 1999 by Warner Home Video Black & White, Closed-Captioned, Original Recording Reissued, Ntsc ISBN-13: 978-0-7907-4239-7, ISBN: 0-7907-4239-X "For inexplicable reasons, Foreign Correspondent never achieved the fame of The 39 Steps or North by Northwest, but it is certainly good enough to join the ranks of these better-known Hitchcock thrillers. Set just before the beginning of World War II, the film focuses on murder, international intrigue, and an innocent Joel McCrea caught between spies and counterspies. Highlights include an assassination on a rainy day with the killer esc ..." |

 | | The Sky's the Limit [VHS] by Russell Metty, David Hempstead, Sherman Todd, Frank Fenton, Lynn Root, Fred Astaire, Joan Leslie, Robert Benchley, Robert Ryan, Elizabeth Patterson, S.K. Lauren, William T. Ryder, directed by Edward H. Griffith Vhs Tape, Published by Republic Entertainme Ntsc ISBN-13: , ISBN: "The Sky's the Limit may not be top-drawer Fred Astaire, but it's a charming, enjoyable wartime picture from his post-Ginger Rogers period. Astaire plays a decorated American fighter pilot who's taking some incognito R&R, but his laissez-faire guise ends up infuriating the young lady he's attracted to (Joan Leslie, a year removed from playing James Cagney's wife in Yankee Doodle Dandy). Leslie was perhaps Astaire's most appealing partn ..." |

 | | You'll Never Get Rich [VHS] by Fred Astaire, Rita Hayworth, Robert Benchley, John Hubbard, Osa Massen, Philip Tannura, Otto Meyer, Samuel Bischoff, Ernest Pagano, Michael Fessier, directed by Sidney Lanfield Vhs Tape, Published 1997 by Sony Pictures Black & White, Hifi Sound, Ntsc ISBN-13: , ISBN: "They don't make the most obvious screen couple--if you squint, you might think Stan Laurel had gotten together with Lauren Bacall--but their differences only serve to make this effervescent musical all the more entertaining. You'll Never Get Rich is the first of two that Fred Astaire and Rita Hayworth made together (followed by You Were Never Lovelier). Astaire, who stars as choreographer-turned-soldier Robert Curtis, has rarely been lo ..." |

 | | I Married a Witch [VHS] by Dalton Trumbo, Marc Connelly, Norman Matson, Robert Pirosh, Thorne Smith, Fredric March, Veronica Lake, Robert Benchley, Susan Hayward, Cecil Kellaway, André Rigaud, René Clair, directed by René Clair Vhs Tape, Published 1993 by Warner Home Video Black & White, Color, Hifi Sound, Ntsc ISBN-13: , ISBN: "This fun and stylish Rene Clair comedy gave two big Hollywood names--Fredric March and Veronica Lake--a chance to break away from their stereotypically serious roles (as intense leading man and film noir vamp, respectively) and exercise their funny bones. The sultry Lake stars as a Salem witch burned at the stake who returns to haunt the descendants of the Puritans who let her smolder, namely aspiring politician March. Lake concocts a l ..." |

 | | Dancing Lady [VHS] by Joan Crawford, Allen Rivkin, Zelda Sears, Robert Benchley, Clark Gable, Franchot Tone, May Robson, Winnie Lightner, David O. Selznick, James Warner Bellah, P.J. Wolfson, directed by Robert Z. Leonard Vhs Tape, Published 1995 by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (Mgm) Black & White, Ntsc ISBN-13: , ISBN: "Joan Crawford and Clark Gable were both in their young MGM prime when they suited up for Dancing Lady, the studio's big, shiny, silly reply to 42nd Street. Joan is a burlesque dancer (but mind you, serious artiste) when she is plucked from the ranks by a playboy, played by Franchot Tone, Crawford's future real-life hubby. Gable is the bluff, hard-driving theater director guiding a new Broadway musical that has room for one more chorus g ..." |

Its titular hero, Johnny Jones (Joel McCrea), is an American crime reporter dispatched by his New York publisher to put a fresh spin on the drowsy dispatches emanating from overseas, his nose for a good story (and, of course, some fortuitous timing) promptly leading ..." |
