George Sidney Top Ten

 One of the best underrated glossy directors

1) The Three Musketeers (1948) - wonderful swasbuckling version

2) Scaramouche (1952) - an even better swashbucker with career high efforts from Granger and Eleanor Parker

3) Viva Las Vegas (1964) - the greatest Elvis movie

4) The Eddie Duchin Story (1956) - splendid tearjerker

5) Bathing Beauty (1944) - fun, all star silliness

6) The Harvey Girls (1946) - some Golden Era fun

7) Showboat (1951) - cripes he did this one too

8) Annie Get Your Gun (1950) - and this one!

9) Young Bess (1953) - slight change of pace, great stuff, a little whiffy script wise

10)  Jeanne Eagles (1957) - serios biopic, solidly done
