I Married a Doctor (1936) Attempts to Update Main Street

March 14, 2014 By Cliff Aliperti 4 Comments

Pat OBrien and Josephine Hutchinson

Main Street by Sinclair Lewis was published in 1920. In 1936 Warner Bros. attempted to update the Lewis story with I Married a Doctor, starring Josephine Hutchinson and Pat O’Brien. The movie is entertaining but it is no Main Street choosing to focus more on the love angle than it does Carol’s battle against the small town.

Captain Blood (1935) Action Energized by Errol Flynn and Korngold’s Score

August 12, 2010 By Cliff Aliperti 5 Comments

Olivia De Havilland Errol Flynn

A look at my own favorite action adventure movie of all time, Captain Blood starring Errol Flynn and Olivia de Havilland, both in breakout roles. A tale of piracy, slavery, patriotism and romance, Korngold’s score keeps you cheering for Blood throughout.
