Movies starring Susan Hayward

I Married a Witch (1942)

77 mins     Comedy, Fantasy, Romance      

"I Married a Witch" is a bit of a slow starter with some nice comedic touches such as the Puritans having an intermission during the burning when a local man sells snacks from a basket. It also has some nice special effects e...

Reap the Wild Wind (1942)

123 mins     Action , Adventure , Drama      

I've only watched a few Cecil B. DeMille movies so far but one thing is becoming apparent to me, he doesn't do small and "Reap the Wild Wind" is certainly not small. It is the first thing which grabs you when you watch as thi...

The Fighting Seabees (1944)

100 mins     Action , Drama, War      

"The Fighting Seabees" maybe known for being a John Wayne movie but it is also one of those war movies which highlights the efforts of those who seem to be forgotten, in this case we are talking about the Seabees aka the Cons...

Canyon Passage (1946)

82 mins     Western      

I think this is the first time I have watched a western and found it curious, but curious is exactly what "Canyon Passage" is. I say it's curious because it has a meandering storyline which flows one way then the next switchi...

Deadline at Dawn (1946)

83 mins     Crime, Mystery, Romance      

I've said it before but I will say it again, movies which get labelled as film-noir don't do it for me in the same way they seem to work for others. Whilst some get blown away by the stylish dialogue I just find it unnatural ...

The Lost Moment (1947)

89 mins     Drama, Romance      

By the time "The Lost Moment" is over, and at only 89 minutes it isn't a long movie, you will feel utterly shattered because you will have just spent 89 minutes watching a movie heavy in atmosphere. It is quite surprising how...

They Won't Believe Me (1947)

95 mins     Crime, Drama      

I suppose I should say this but I have said it so many times before but here goes, I really get put off by the term "film-noir" it seems to get banded about that it seems like any movie which is a black and white crime story ...

Tulsa (1949)

90 mins     Action , Drama, Romance      

Movie Review - Tulsa (1949) Susan Hayward stars as Cherokee, the daughter of a rancher who ends up in the oil business and becoming changed by the wealth which comes her way...

David and Bathsheba (1951)

116 mins     Drama, Romance      

Whilst not a completely obscure biblical story it has to be said that the story of David and Bathsheba it is not as well known as the likes of The Ten Commandments or Noah and the Arc. It makes it a bit of an unusual choice f...

The Snows of Kilimanjaro (1952)

114 mins     Adventure , Drama, Romance      

It's strange how a title can attract you to watch a movie; it was certainly the case with "The Snows of Kilimanjaro" as it was the title which grabbed my attention well ahead of the cast which features Gregory Peck, Ava Gardn...

The Conqueror (1956)

111 mins     Action , Adventure , Biography      

"The Conqueror" could quite possibly be one of the most expensive movies ever made, not financially but physically. The movie was shot at a location near to where there had been nuclear weapons testing and for studio shots to...
