So This Is College (MOD)Calculus? Nah. Chem? No way. Russian Lit? Oh, please. College in 1929, in Hollywood at least, was all about girls, football and girls! Robert Montgomery graduates summa cum laughter in this rah rah musical, playing a football star who lets a devious coed come between himself and his buddy (Elliott Nugent). Actual USC Stanford game footage provides much of the gridiron action. And the two young actors would go on to first string careers: Montgomery as

who shuns his father's resignation to such a lowly life

takes his tough-guy persona and gives it a gutsy twist

observant Western that follows four previous movie versions and a TV series

While Mason blissfully sails off to Hawaii he meets and falls in love with a beautiful dancer (Eleanor Powell) - but when he arrives in Honolulu he finds Smith's fianc�e Cecilia

James Cagney and Barbara Stanwyck shine in their only screen pairing

who is destined to be anything except what he himself desires most

a sacrifice of war for which he must soon make amends

The courts

Terry and their daughter Mako are sent to Japan in exchange for American diplomats stationed there

Can you imagine Gone with the Wind without him

Boris Karloff was one of Hollywood's greatest actors

Kate experiences the most romantic week of her life
