TAKE A HARD RIDE (1975)

In the same year, Dana Andrews plays characters whose sudden heart attacks moved the story forward. Here in TAKE A HARD RIDE it sends partner Jim Brown the titular trek, and the death in AIRPORT 1975 causes Dana's small plane to crash into Efrem Zimbelist Jr's large one: the opposite of THE CROWDED SKY.

MADISON AVENUE (1961)

The third of four movies starring Dana Andrews and Jeanne Crain is the only where Crain plays the sort of "other woman" on the sidelines wherein Dana's MADISON AVENUE mover/shaker is building-up the career of Eleanor Parker. The scenes between Andrews and Crain, though, are the longest and last throughout the entire story.

SEALED CARGO (1951)

Dana Andrews' uncredited brother Steve Forrest plays a Nazi soldier, without lines, about to get a knife in SEALED CARGO... so the brothers never actually share screen-time, but it's the first and only time they're in the same movie.

THE FEARMAKERS (1958)

Another Happy Birthday and Happy New Years both for DANA ANDREWS, born on Jan 1, 1909, a long time ago, but his movies carry on, as his minimalist style of acting seems brand new... here in THE FEARMAKERS (colorized photo) directed by Dana's CURSE OF THE DEMON and CANYON PASSAGE auteur Jacques Tourneur.
