Louis B. Mayer Movies
Former junkman Louis B. Mayer rose to become one of the most influential and powerful men in Hollywood during the '30s and '40s, when he was the head of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, once considered the grandest of Hollywood studios that claimed to have "more stars than there are in the heavens." He was born Eliezer Mayer in Minsk, Russia. The son of a laborer, he emigrated with his family to New York during his childhood. They then moved to St. John, New Brunswick, Canada where young Mayer helped out in his father's successful junk and scrap metal operation. As a young man, Mayer went to Boston and set up his own junk business. He too was successful and after marrying a kosher butcher's daughter in 1904, bought a ramshackle motion picture theater in Haverhill, Massachusetts for a song. After renovating it, he vowed only to show the best films. The gambit was successful and he continued buying theaters until he owned New England's largest theater chain. He then began working in film distribution during 1914 -- when The Birth of a Nation came out, he made a fortune. In 1917, after founding a production company -- first called Alco, and then Metro -- Mayer moved to L.A. with star Anita Stewart. Metro was purchased by studio helmer Marcus Loew in 1924. Loew also bought up controlling interests in the Goldwyn company and in Louis B. Mayer Pictures; the result was MGM, and Mayer was appointed vice-president. He remained there until he was forcibly ousted in 1951. It was Mayer who set the tone of the studio and he quickly became a grandfather figure to all. Though not universally beloved, Mayer was respected for his talent for understanding the public's wants. He was adept at picking personnel and stars; very conservative, he sought to impose his high moral standards upon the films MGM produced, thus many of the films were family oriented. To create his high-quality films, he hired only the best of the best. His first production chief was the brilliant Irving Thalberg. At his apex, Mayer was the highest paid person in the United States, making well over a million dollars a year. The conservative Mayer was also politically active and served as the California state chairman of the Republican party for many years. It was Mayer who formed the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (the source of the Oscars) in 1927. In 1951, his production chief since 1941, Dore Schary, successfully dethroned King Louis. Mayer then became acting advisor to the Cinerama corporation. The rest of his life was spent unsuccessfully trying to regain some kind of financial control over MGM. ~ Sandra Brennan, All Movie Guide- 1919
Marie (Anita Stewart), a young princess, finds herself shipwrecked and uses this as a way to escape her royal duties. She takes the guise of a hotel maid, where she meets up with Roger Sloan (Jack Holt), a rich guest. They fall in love, but the class differences keep them apart. That isn't the end of it, however -- they encounter each other again, after Marie has returned to being a princess. This time, Sloan is the one who can't marry into royalty. An impending revolution in Marie's country, however, promises that the couple will finally wind up together on the same socio-economic level. Notably, much of this film was shot at the Alexandria Hotel in downtown Los Angeles -- during the silent era it was very posh, and the hotel of choice amongst visiting film executives and stars. ~ Janiss Garza, All Movie Guide

Although Anita Stewart receives top billing in this action picture, it's Edward Hearn who has the more prominent role. Bill Shannon (Hearn) is building a dam in the mountains of the West. Leon Morse, a Wall Street millionaire and railroad magnate (Arthur Stewart Hull), wants the same land as a right-of-way for his railroad. He travels West to negotiate with Shannon, bringing along his fiancée, Anne Wilmot (Stewart), and her Aunt Katherine (Adele Farrington). The trip proves to be Morse's undoing in several ways -- Anne immediately falls in love with Shannon, who is not terribly cooperative about handing over the land. After his offer to Shannon is turned down, Morse plants a bomb to blow up the dam. Anne is the one who saves the day by disconnecting the bomb's wire. After losing the battle for both the land and his sweetheart, Morse crawls back to his Eastern home. ~ Janiss Garza, All Movie Guide

There wasn't much story to this lightweight romance starring Viola Dana. Dana plays Connie DuBois, a manicurist who leaves behind her country home and sweetheart, George Brady (Pat O'Malley), to go to the big city. There she meets up with scheming salesman Eddie Schwartz (Eddie Phillips). When one of Connie's wealthy society clients asks her to house-sit at her Fifth Avenue apartment, Schwartz comes up with a plan. He convinces Connie to enter a beauty contest in Atlantic City, and gives everyone the impression that she is related to the woman whose home she is watching. Connie never corrects this and she wins the contest. She is guilt-ridden, however, and reveals her true identity to the judges. One of them asks her to broadcast her experience, and while she is doing so, she mentions the name of her sweetheart back home. Brady, a radio installer, hears her, and he tracks her down. Connie is allowed to keep her prize money and her title, and she is reunited with Brady. ~ Janiss Garza, All Movie Guide

When Dick Tyler (Conrad Nagel) becomes a partner in the firm of Knight and Tyler, he marries his sweetheart, Doris (Marguerite de la Motte). Jim Knight (Lewis Stone) disapproves of the marriage -- he points out to Tyler that a wife interferes with business. When Dick and Doris attend a dinner given by Doris' school chum, Evelyn (Paulette Duval), they're surprised to see Knight there. Evelyn, they discover, is Knight's mistress and he is keeping her in luxury. Too much luxury, it turns out -- he has spent the firm's surplus funds on her, and now the company is in trouble. Knight begs Evelyn for help, but she coolly turns him down. Doris, meanwhile, goes to a banker friend and pleads her case so effectively that he offers to accept Dick's note. When she and Dick go to tell Knight, they find he has committed suicide. The banker marries Doris' friend, Flora (Louise Fazenda), and the two couples agree that it is cheaper -- in every way -- to marry. ~ Janiss Garza, All Movie Guide

Director Victor Sjöström gave MGM this well-crafted adaptation of Alphonse Daudet's novel, Kings in Exile. The King of Illyris (Lewis Stone) weds the princess from a neighboring mythical kingdom, making her his Queen (Alice Terry). She is disgusted to discover that he has a mistress, Sephora (Helena D'Algy), and turns to Prince Alexei (John Bowers) for friendship. A revolution flares up in the little nation, and the King is willing to abdicate, but the Queen wants the crown for the sake of their son. The royals escape to Paris, and the King finally begins to grow on the distrustful Queen. In spite of his behavior, the King admits that he has always loved her. It turns out that Sephora is in league with the revolutionists, and this puts the King's life in danger. He decides to abdicate in favor of his son, and the Queen resolves to stick by his side. ~ Janiss Garza, All Movie Guide

This romantic drama only used half the clichés of the typical horse racing story. There's the impoverished Colonel (or in this case, a judge) and his pretty daughter, who may have to marry the bad guy who has the mortgage on the family home. At least the story draws the line at this juncture -- there are no drugged or kidnapped jockeys and the heroine doesn't put on the jockey's outfit to ride the horse to victory, which is the way most racing melodramas end. Judge Roberts (Frank Keenan) is living a life of genteel poverty, but he doesn't let his daughter, Virginia (Claire Windsor), know. He rears her in luxurious circumstances by selling off his land, bit by bit, until all that is left is the old homestead and a racehorse, who is about to have a colt. But the horse gets out of the stable during a rainstorm and dies after giving birth. The colt, Dixie, just barely survives. Johnny Sheridan (Lloyd Hughes) is down on his luck, and Judge Roberts takes him in. The young man works in the stable and when the colt, Dixie, is badly injured, he saves its life. Dexter, a trainer for a neighboring millionaire (John St. Polis), finally tells Virginia the truth about her father's circumstances. Dixie is entered in a big race and wins 50 thousand dollars, saving Virginia from marrying the man who carries the mortgage on the old homestead. It turns out that Sheridan comes from a good family, so he is able to marry Virginia. ~ Janiss Garza, All Movie Guide

Norma Shearer and Conrad Nagel star in this farce based on the successful stage play by Rupert Hughes. Lieutenant Harry Mallory (Nagel) wins a promotion for his valor and is ordered to go to the Philippines. His fiancée, Marjorie Newton (Shearer), wants to go with him so they decide to get married. They're unable to find a minister before the train leaves for San Francisco. They see one boarding the train, however, and chase after him. When they can't track him down, Mallory finds himself consigned to the wash room for the night. Various misunderstandings ensue -- Mallory runs into a former sweetheart, Francine (Renée Adorée), and Marjorie believes that he is the father of her little boy. Then there's the drunk, Jimmy Wellington (Bert Roach), who just won't go away, and the convention of ministers at one train stop. The train overturns while trying to avoid a burning bridge and Mallory has to be rescued. Somehow, he and Marjorie are able to get married in time to catch the boat headed for the Philippines. ~ Janiss Garza, All Movie Guide

This "real life" drama starred some of the best second-string talent at Metro, and first-class screenwriter Frances Marion adapted the story from a stage play by James Forbes. When the world war (meaning World War I -- there was only one back then) breaks out, Mrs. Fair (Myrtle Stedman) goes to Europe as a nurse. She is decorated for bravery, and when she comes home, she discovers that she is famous. She is offered a lecture tour, which her husband (Huntly Gordon) forbids her to accept. Mrs. Fair rebels and accepts anyway, leaving her husband; son, Alan (Cullen Landis); and daughter, Sylvia (Marguerite de la Motte), on their own. At a loss without Mrs. Fair, the family moves into a hotel. Mr. Fair succumbs to the charms of a vampy neighbor, Angy Brice (Carmel Myers), while Sylvia becomes a flapper and Alan takes up gambling. When Mrs. Fair finally gets back from her tour, Alan and her husband settle down, but Sylvia is about to run off with the no-good Dudley Gillette (Ward Crane). Alan, who has married a nice girl (Helen Ferguson), saves her from disgracing herself. Mrs. Fair realizes that her neglect was what started all the trouble (this was definitely in the days before women's equality), and gladly stays home. ~ Janiss Garza, All Movie Guide

Pretty Anita Stewart stars in this rough tale of the West, based on the novel by Caroline Lockart. Kate Prentice (Stewart) grows up amidst the sordid atmosphere of a roadhouse run by her mother. When she is assaulted by the vicious Pete Mullendore (the ever-so villainous Walter Long), Mormon Joe (Noah Beery) comes to her rescue. Joe is a hermit sheepherder, and he takes Kate under his wing and teaches her the trade. Some people assume that she is Joe's mistress, and gossip starts. Easterner Hughie Disston (Wallace MacDonald) is unaware of the talk, and he falls in love with Kate. He promises to return for her as soon as he graduates from college. After he leaves, Joe is murdered and Kate is assumed to be the guilty party. Since there is not enough evidence to arrest her, she remains free, but it leaves a black mark on her already damaged reputation. Nevertheless, Kate becomes wealthy in her profession, and when Disston returns, he is not sure he likes it. Mullendore has acquired sheep holdings that rival Kate's, but when he is mortally wounded in a fight, he confesses that he was the one who murdered Joe. Kate is finally accepted into the community, and once again she wins Disston's love. ~ Janiss Garza, All Movie Guide

Fashions for Men was a satirical play by Franz Molnar. In the hands of film company First National, it became a sincere, unsophisticated drama. Kindly Peter Hungerford (Percy Marmont) is a London clothes merchant who has saved up 500 dollars to stave off impending bankruptcy. His plans are ruined when his wife, Adele (Eileen Percy), takes the money and runs off with his clerk, Oscar (Raymond Griffith). Hungerford finds work managing the cheese business for the Earl of Denham (Lewis S. Stone). His former cashier, Paula (Alma Rubens), goes with him and becomes the earl's secretary. The earl pursues Paula, but Hungerford watches over her so carefully that he hampers the affair. The earl wants to fire him, but can't bear to hurt such a kindly man. The creditors of Hungerford's old store ask him to return, and Paula, who realizes she loves him, not the earl, follows. Oscar shows up, destitute and looking for work. The good-natured Hungerford is willing to take him back, but Paula -- who is not so forgiving -- shows the ex-clerk the door. ~ Janiss Garza, All Movie Guide

This compelling and exceptionally well-executed silent drama, from new MGM studio executives Irving Thalburg and producer Louis B. Mayer is based on a highly-regarded Russian play and features the studio's biggest stars, Lon Chaney, John Gilbert and Norma Shearer. Directed by noted Swedish filmmmaker Victor Sjostrom, it is the story of a scientific genius who is humiliated by his philandering wife and a major career set-back. To express his pain, bitterness and anger he becomes a circus clown who seems to enjoy the frequently cruel slapstick antics of his new colleagues. While in the circus, he finds a chance at renewal when he falls for a lovely bareback rider. But will he at last find happiness? Or will tragedy continue to be his closest companion? ~ Sandra Brennan, All Movie Guide

In spite of an all-star cast and the talents of director Marshall Neilan, there wasn't much that could be done with this overly complicated drama. Judith Rutledge (Anita Stewart) is your typical country girl who has come to the big city. She becomes a secretary to banker James Warren (Frank Currier), who comes to admire her intelligence and common sense -- qualities his grown children seem to lack. Sons Fred (Mahlon Hamilton) and Jim (Thomas Holding) are both in love with Carlotta Stanmore (Anna Q. Nilsson), a forger. When Jim is killed in a car accident, Carlotta tells Fred that his brother was the forger. To save Jim's name, Fred takes responsibility for the crimes. On his deathbed, old man Warren asks Judith to marry Fred so that she can help him carry on his business. She agrees, and marries Fred soon after, but Carlotta and Fred's sister, Penelope (Kathlyn Williams), make her life difficult. Swindler J. Wellington Yarnell (Edwin Stevens) convinces Fred to go into a partnership to develop a tract of land out west. He doesn't tell Fred that the land already belongs to Langley (Tully Marshall) and that the papers were stolen from him after he bought the property. Judith, meanwhile, thinks Fred is more interested in Carlotta than he is in her, so she heads West, where she meets Tom (Tom Santschi), Langley's son. She finds out the truth, and she and Tom halt Yarnell's scheme. Carlotta is revealed as the forger and Fred discovers that he actually loves his wife. ~ Janiss Garza, All Movie Guide

One of the silent era's more popular leading ladies, Anita Stewart, stars in this colorful but not particularly true-to-life picture. Alice Lambert (Stewart) has had a hard life, full of sadness and disillusionment. One day she finally decides to end it all, but she is discovered by David Leighton (Walter McGrail) before she can go through with it. By calling her a coward and a quitter, Leighton convinces her to rethink what she is about to do and strikes a deal with her: He will give her 50 thousand dollars to stay alive for another year, at the end of which she can kill herself. With her sudden wealth, Alice is able to surround herself in luxury -- and she also learns along the way that money isn't everything. At the end of the year, Alice has come to realize that she actually has quite a lot to live for, and one of her reasons is Leighton. He proposes and she is more than happy to accept. ~ Janiss Garza, All Movie Guide

Charles T. Dazey's old theatrical chestnut In Old Kentucky was brought to the screen in 1920, courtesy of up-and-coming producer Louis B. Mayer. Anita Stewart, Mayer's biggest star at the time, plays mountain gal Madge Brierly, who saves the life of flatlander Frank Layson (Mahlon Hamilton). Madge falls in love with Layson, rescuing him from the clutches of a predatory female and ultimately helping him win an important horse race. That is, Layson's horse wins the race, not Layson (he's fast, but not that fast). When next we saw In Old Kentucky on screen in 1927, producer Louis B. Mayer had gone to the head of the glass as top man at Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

Though many fans will always fondly recall Judy Garland's wonderful portrayal of young Dorothy in The Wizard of Oz, Garland herself was apparently most proud of the role she played in A Star Is Born. In this film, which opened in 1954, Garland portrayed an actress who sees her career blossom as her husband's declines. This video features clips from the film's glamorous premiere held on September 29, 1954, at Hollywood's Pantages Theatre. Viewers will see a vast array of other stars arriving at this event that foreshadowed Garland's Academy Award nomination for this role. An added segment features Garland and Ken Murray, who was well-known for his "Hollywood Home Movies." ~ Elizabeth Smith, All Movie Guide

For this romantic drama, author and Hollywood tastemaker Elinor Glyn began with the premise that a woman does one of three things to a man: she elevates him, degrades him, or bores him to death. Then Glyn does the obvious by introducing three women -- one to represent each possibility -- into the life of her protagonist, Sir Nicholas Thormonde (Lew Cody, who, for once, plays a relatively sympathetic character). Thormonde hires Alathea Bulteel (Harriet Hammond) as his secretary. Although she is an attractive young woman, she purposely makes herself look homely, and while she is attracted to her employer, she is turned off by his womanizing ways. She's especially disgusted by his relationship with Suzette (Renée Adorée). Thormonde comes to love Alathea, but she misunderstands his intentions and quits. Her father (Gerald Grove) gets into trouble with his compulsive gambling, so Alathea agrees to marry Thormonde in name only. Eventually the couple realizes the depth of their feelings for each other. This was definitely one of Glyn's lesser efforts for MGM. ~ Janiss Garza, All Movie Guide

Meanwhile, Jack dies from his fast-living ways, freeing Mary to finally follow her heart and be with Clifford. ~ Janiss Garza, All Movie Guide

Future MGM star Norma Shearer was still an up-and-coming young starlet when she made an impressive appearance as the flapper daughter in this otherwise mediocre drama. Hugh Benton (Huntly Gordon) comes into sudden wealth and he moves his family into a city mansion. His wife, Marjorie (Mary Alden), is uncomfortable with her new lifestyle and Benton begins an affair with Geraldine De Lacey (Winifred Bryson). Marjorie's two grown children are as opposite as she and her husband -- Elinor (Shearer), like her father, loves the high life, while Howard (William Collier Jr.) sticks by his mother. Elinor attends a wild party and the host, Templeton Druid (Ward Crane), locks her in a room. Benton and Geraldine are also in attendance, and when he hears his daughter calling for help, Benton springs into action and shoots Druid. He is arrested, but Druid recovers and charges are never pressed. The incident helps bring the family back together again. This picture was based on the novel, The Valley of Content, by Blanche Upwright. ~ Janiss Garza, All Movie Guide

King Vidor does a nice job of making an insignificant novel by Lawrence Rising into a pleasant light comedy. Fernanda (Eleanor Boardman, who would become Vidor's second wife) is born in San Francisco during the 1906 earthquake and raised by aristocratic relatives in Spain. As a young woman she is engaged to marry Don Jaime Diego (Harrison Ford), but she feels he treats her too lightly. She tells him that she is going to America, but he takes the news so calmly that she is forced to really go. Diego follows after her and, in fact, arrives before she does. This does not stop Fernanda from meeting the attractive Pat O'Malley (Pat O'Malley, apparently using his own name for the character). She falls for him immediately, but when she discovers that, as a contractor, he is basically a glorified plumber, it gives her pause. O'Malley, however, persists and ultimately spirits her off to a cabin. When Diego shows up, O'Malley reluctantly lets Fernanda leave with him, and returns home, depressed. Soon enough Fernanda shows up because she can't forget him. They wind up together, while Diego merely pulls out his little black book and finds another girl. ~ Janiss Garza, All Movie Guide

This comedy-drama starring Anita Stewart was unusual in that instead of marrying the handsome leading man, the heroine winds up with his father. As an infant, Rose (Stewart) was cast onshore after a shipwreck and taken in by an old sailor. The sailor raises her, and after his death, Rose goes to work in a Fifth Avenue flower shop. The good-looking but dissolute Elliott Schuyler (Rudolph Cameron) meets her there, and invites her out for a ride in his car. She goes, but repulses his amorous advances. Elliott, who has been drinking, hits his head and is knocked unconscious. Rose goes to his millionaire father, Peter Schuyler (Thomas Holding), to tell him of his son's death, but Elliott comes to and arrives home while she is still there. The young man takes up with a chorus girl, and when Peter tries to buy her off, she uses the money to pay one of his son's gambling debts. Rose, meanwhile, is befriended by an elderly lady who tries to start a romance between her and Elliott. The ploy is nearly successful, and the couple go so far as to become engaged. But Elliott decides he is unworthy of her and marries the chorus girl. Peter disinherits him, but Rose helps father and son to reconcile. Along the way, she and Peter fall in love and they marry. This picture was based on the novel by Countess Barcynska. ~ Janiss Garza, All Movie Guide
