|
| Length of Trailer: |
King's Row is the story of five young people near the turn of the century in 1900 who live in an apparently ideal American small-town setting that reveals evil, sadism, cruelty, and depravity.
The screenplay was based upon a novel by Henry Bellamann of the same name. The main characters are five childhood friends: a young doctor, a working class girl, a sheltered young woman, the daughter of a sadistic doctor, and a playboy. The playboy was played by Ronald Regan who would deliver an unforgettable scene of his realization that his legs have been amputated -- and his exclamation: "Where's the rest of me?" This would later become the title of 40th President Ronald Reagan's 1965 autobiography.
The film's tagline was "The town they talk of in whispers." The Hays Code of 1934 required that much of the questionable, unfilmable content of the novel be modified - eliminating or seriously muting subjects such as illicit premarital sex, homosexuality, a sadistic and vengeful surgeon, and father-daughter incest leading to a murder-suicide. The wartime film was nominated for three Academy Awards but did not win. |

Five children in an apparently ideal American small town find their lives changing as the years pass . |

Santa Fe Trail is the story of J.E.B. Stewart, his romance with Kit Carson Holliday, friendship with George Custer and battles against John Brown in the days leading up to the outbreak of the American Civil War.
The ficticious storyline is about J.E.B. Stuart who has recently graduated from West Point and now stationed at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, at that time the starting point of the Santa Fe Trail. Abolitionist John Brown is conducting violent raids along the trail, and it becomes the duty of Stuart and George Armstrong Custer to capture Brown dead or alive, and put an end to his attacks.
In this movie Errol Flynn plays Jeb Stuart, Olivia de Havilland is Kit Carson Holliday, Raymond Massey plays John Brown, and Ronald Reagan is George Armstrong Custer.
