The Perils of Pauline (1947)

Featuring Frank Loesser’s Oscar nominated song, “I Wish I Didn’t Love You So,” The Perils of Pauline is about the rise to fame of silent screen star Pearl White (Betty Hutton). Directed by George Marshall (The Blue Dahlia, Houdini), the cast includes such stars as Billy De Wolfe, John Lund, and William Demarest, plus appearances by silent screen aces Snub Pollard and Chester Conklin. Still, it’s Hutton’s movie all the way – her energy and charisma highlight this tribute to the golden age of moviemaking!
