He Walked By Night<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n

Based on a true case, this fine film noir details the Los Angeles Police Department’s search for a technically adept but mentally unbalanced thief who killed a policeman. With Richard Basehart<\/a>, Scott Brady<\/a>, Whit Bissell<\/a>, and Jack Webb<\/a>, who supposedly based his “Dragnet” radio show on this movie; directed by Alfred Werker<\/a> and (uncredited) Anthony Mann<\/a>. <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Hell on Frisco Bay<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n

Back on the street five years after a rigged manslaughter rap cost him his badge as well as his freedom, ex-San Francisco cop Steve Rollins (Alan Ladd<\/a>) headed for the docks for a lead on the proof he needed to clear his name. Unfortunately, the waterfront was still the dominion of racketeer Vic Amato (Edward G. Robinson<\/a>)…and he\u2019s prepared to close Rollins\u2019 case permanently. Long-sought noir opus co-stars Joanne Dru<\/a>, William Demarest<\/a>, Fay Wray<\/a>; keep an eye out for Rod Taylor<\/a>, Jayne Mansfield<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Go, Johnny, Go!<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n

Johnny (Jimmy Clanton<\/a>) is an aspiring rock \u2018n\u2019 roll singer who records a song that gets noticed by famed disc jockey Alan Freed<\/a> (as himself). There\u2019s just one problem: Freed has no idea who Johnny is and must launch an exhaustive search to find him as the record gets massive airplay. Sandy Stewart<\/a> co-stars, with early rock greats Chuck Berry<\/a>, Jackie Wilson<\/a>, Ritchie Valens<\/a>, Eddie Cochran<\/a>, and more, appearing–and performing–as themselves. Songs include \u201cJohnny B. Goode,\u201d \u201cYou Better Know It,\u201d \u201cTeenage Heaven,\u201d and others.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

King Creole<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n

One of Elvis Presley<\/a>‘s finer acting roles came in this drama based on a novel by Harold Robbins. Elvis plays Danny Fisher, a high school dropout who takes a job at a New Orleans nightclub owned by gangster Maxie Fields (Walter Matthau<\/a>). When Danny\u2019s talent as a singer gets him hired at another joint, Fields wants him back–and he might not take \u201cno\u201d for an answer. With Carolyn Jones<\/a>, Dolores Hart<\/a>, Vic Morrow<\/a>; songs include “Hard-Headed Woman,” “Crawfish,” and the title tune.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

She Had to Say Yes<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n

Garment district steno Flo Denny (Loretta Young<\/a>) was told flat out that her job description now included entertaining the clientele…although her co-worker\/fianc\u00e9 Tommy Nelson (Regis Toomey<\/a>) assured her these \u201ccustomer relations\u201d would all be on the up-and-up. What\u2019ll her response be when major–and insistent–buyer Danny Drew (Lyle Talbot<\/a>) looks to close the deal? Eye-opening pre-Code potboiler co-stars Winnie Lightner<\/a>, Hugh Herbert<\/a>; first directing credit for Busby Berkeley<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
