Based on a story by
Robert Andrews
,
If I Had a Million
is a multipart comedy-drama employing Paramount's top directorial and acting talents. Refusing to leave his fortune to his grasping relatives, dying millionaire
Richard Bennett
selects several people at random from the phone book and bestows upon each of them a check for one million dollars. The first recipient is henpecked husband
Charlie Ruggles
, who cheerily enters his former place of employment, a china shop, and smashes every bit of crockery in the place. Prostitute
Wynne Gibson
uses her money to escape from her sordid lifestyle and finally sleep in a bed all by herself. Forger
George Raft
finds that he can't convince anyone that his check is genuine, and ends up handing the check to a flophouse manager--who promptly burns it. Husband and wife
W.C. Fields
and
Alison Skipworth
, dismayed that their new car has been destroyed by a "road hog," utilize part of their million dollars to purchase a fleet of cars and then smash up every road hog in sight! Convicted murderer
Gene Raymond
hopes that his million will help finance a new trial, but the execution is carried out on schedule. Newly rich clerk
Charles Laughton
calmly makes his way through a series of offices, reaches his boss' desk, and delivers a loud Bronx cheer.
Gary Cooper
,
Roscoe Karns
and
Jack Oakie
play three brawling marines who think the check's a joke and sign it over to an illiterate lunch-counter owner. The last million-dollar recipient is
May Robson
, an elderly woman confined to a dismal nursing home. She spends her money to turn the home into a joyful resort for old people, forcing the formerly repressive nursing-home staffers to earn their paychecks by sitting all day in rocking chairs. The millionaire who started the plot rolling is given a new lease on life by
May Robson
's example, and he recovers from his "fatal" illness.
PLEASE SEE FILM GRADING SCALE BELOW:
Mint or New
: Means just that. It may have been run, but still physically looks mint, untouched by a projector.
Near Mint
: Only the slightest signs of having been run. Appears Mint when projected on the screen.
Like New
: Can be older print that was well taken care of. May have only the slightest signs of use, occasional minor light line or splice or minor cue mark, if any. Starting at this level, older prints may have a little curl to the film, which is common.
Excellent+
: Very minimal wear or light lines at times with an occasional, although seldom, splice. No major repairs or missing scenes transitions from TV use.
Excellent
: Will have some minimal wear or light lines and may have an occasional temporary light emulsion line, a few splices or minor repair. Possibly some short lap dissolves or minor cue marks around transitional scenes if it was used by a TV station, but highly acceptable condition.
Very Good
: Will have some wear and lines, cue marks, minor repairs and usually more splices than desirable. An occasional emulsion scratch.
Good
: The same as Very Good but with more scratches, wear and some spots that may be splicy from having been damaged. Still watchable.
Fair or Poor
: Will need to be checked for extensive repairs before running. I usually will never even list anything in this condition, only if a desirable title.
