Movies starring Ralph Bellamy

The Awful Truth (1937)

91 mins     Comedy, Romance      

Do you want to know what the awful truth is; "The Awful Truth" only works because of Cary Grant and Irene Dunne. That may sound harsh because "The Awful Truth" is a much loved screwball comedy which is directed by Leo McCarey...

Carefree (1938)

83 mins     Comedy, Musical, Romance      

It's hard not to enjoy any of the movies which Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers starred in together; they were such a good team that even something weak could still entertain. And sadly for me "Carefree" is one of their weaker ...

His Girl Friday (1940)

92 mins     Comedy, Drama, Romance      

It would be a fair judgement to say that great movies never grow tiresome, you can watch them time after time and still get as much out of them as you did the very first time. Howard Hawk's "His Girl Friday" is one such movie...

Dance, Girl, Dance (1940)

90 mins     Comedy, Drama, Musical      

There are various reasons to watch "Dance, Girl, Dance"; for me it was that it starred Maureen O'Hara, for others it will be that it features Lucille Ball whilst some might watch because they recognize the name Mary Carlisle....

Lady on a Train (1945)

94 mins     Comedy, Crime      

If like me you are not overly fussed by film-noir and are even slightly put off by the term then give "Lady on a Train" a try as whilst technically film-noir it is also a wonderful crime comedy which will have you smiling fro...

The Professionals (1966)

117 mins     Western      

"The Professionals" is one of the smartest westerns I have ever watched, I don't mean just in having an interesting storyline but also in the way Richard Brooks directs. Consider when "The Professionals" was made, it was a ti...

Something Evil (1972)

73 mins     Horror, TV Movie      

Early Spielberg, that is the key thing here as "Something Evil" was one of those made for TV movies which he made at the start of the 70s before graduating to the big screen. It is the key because the most interesting aspect ...

Trading Places (1983)

116 mins     Comedy      

Wealthy brothers Mortimer (Don Ameche) and Randolph Duke (Ralph Bellamy) decide to have a little bet over whether a con man could become a brilliant CEO and a CEO a con man if their circumstances suddenly changed. So they set...

Pretty Woman (1990)

119 mins     Comedy, Romance      

I know I shouldn't like it, I'm a bloke, I like "Die Hard", "Commando" and any other number of macho action flicks but I can't deny it, I like "Pretty Woman". I know it's a girlie fairytale, a Cinderella story for a modern ag...
