11 Films Directed by Brown Prove Box Office Successes; Is It Record?
1\ /f ANY say Clarence Brown, director, holds the record for box office successes.
His last 11 consecutive pictures have been outstanding hits. Not only have they been unusual money makers, but critics throughout the country have acclaimed them artistic successes as well, which proves, again, that an artistic film is not doomed to failure at the box office. Brown has always held, and substantiates his belief, that art and cash, in pictures, will mix.
The noted director’s last triumph was “Flesh and the Devil,” and he is now filming “The Trail of ’98” for Metro-GoldwynMayer.
The 11 pictures are “The Great Redeemer,” “The Last of the Mohicans,” “Foolish Matrons,” “The Acquittal,” “The Signal Tower,” “Butterfly,” “Smouldering Fires,” “The Goose Woman,” “The Eagle,” “Kiki,” “Flesh and the Devil.”
All of these have been outstanding box office successes. With two of them the stories were criticised, but the unanimous consensus of opinion of the reviewers was that Brown had accomplished superb direction.
