This 1932 anthology about a dying steel tycoon who gives eight random strangers a million dollars each rounds up a veritable who’s-who of Hollywood filmmaking luminaries and turns them loose for a zany, star-studded Pre-Code classic that bristles with imagination and wit
Product Description
To prevent his inheritance from going to his greedy family, a dying steel tycoon (Richard Bennett) chooses eight random strangers and gives them each one million bucks. Among those chosen are an entertainer (W.C. Fields) who uses the money to clear bad drivers from the road, a Marine (Gary Cooper) who believes the check is an April Fool’s Day prank, and an office clerk (Charles Laughton) who finally sees an opportunity to quit his job. The unexpected windfalls bring joy—or tragedy—to the recipients. The anthology film If I Had a Million rounds up a veritable who’s-who of Hollywood filmmaking luminaries (including Ernst Lubitsch, Joseph L. Mankiewicz, James Cruze, H. Bruce Humberstone, Stephen Roberts, Norman Z. McLeod, William A. Seiter and Norman Taurog) and turns them loose for a zany, star-studded Pre-Code classic that bristles with imagination and wit.

- Reviewed in the United States on March 29, 2023I already had a copy of 1932's "If I Had A Million" from the French Blu-ray release of this movie by Elephant Films about 5 years ago. Kino Lorber used the same master from Universal Pictures for its Blu-ray, adding only the crappy new Universal spinning globe logo at the start, English subtitles and a commentary track by two film experts. The SDH subtitles are fine but the commentary lost me when the two experts started badmouthing the 'Violet Smith" segment. Wynne Gibson was the star of this story and she was super. Part of the reason may have been she was performing against Richard Bennett, who was her director and co-star in the 1928 Broadway play "Jarnegan." Gibson's segment was completely scrubbed from this movie after the strict 1934 production code went into force in July 1934. Her name vanished from the credits on post 1934 movie re-release posters and Gibson is uncredited, not listed as one of "The Stars" in the opening credits of the Elephant Films or Kino Lorber Blu-ray. The only remnant showing Wynne Gibson was once in this movie is a small color drawing of her sitting on a money bag in the upper corner of some post 1934 movie posters. This once "lost" episode shows a character, a streetwalker, going from the bottom of the world to the top, thanks to a lot of money courtesy of John Glidden. In the movie, now rich Violet Smith asks the hotel front desk clerk about the room she is checking into the clerk tells her: "We have none better." Women's liberation in the movies in 1932, the bottom year of the Great Depression. But not for long, just two years. 1932 was a tough year for Paramount, it was in receivership, founder Adolph Zukor was booted out by the Eastern bankers. To get customers into theaters, Paramount figured sex sells. So you have the "Violet Smith" episode and scenes in DeMille's 1932 movie "Sign Of The Cross" that were hot stuff back then, until the Breen office moved in.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 23, 2024Great cast in each segment/chapter. Fun and worth a watch.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 28, 2014I became a W. C. Fields fan in college decades ago and this is one of the first movies with him in it that I watched. We had film festivals and W. C. was a huge draw for his unique brand of humor. The movie is centered around a wealthy old man who supposedly is lying in bed dying while his relatives stand around arguing about who is going to get his money. Disgusted, the old man rises from his presumed death bed and calls his lawyers in to help him give it all (not quite) away to complete strangers, much to the chagrin of the greedy relatives. He picks up the phone book and randomly selects a name then tracks down the person and hands her or him a check for $1 million (or has it delivered). The W. C. Fields segment is the funniest in my opinion but this movie covers the range of emotions. A prostitute is one recipient and an elderly lady in a nursing home is another. Don't want to give anything away but if you love old movies and are kind of sentimental you will laugh hilariously at some and shed tears at others. Highly recommend this Work of Art. Love the ending, too!
- Reviewed in the United States on September 29, 2015I was a little skeptical at first since this isn't a professional studio release, but rather a DVD-R burn by an independent. Well, it's obvious that they know their stuff because the print used was excellent and whatever cleanup they did made it better. The sound was a little marginal, but that's the norm for 1932.
The five stars is mostly for the value on this disc. The movie would have gotten that many regardless, mostly for the one sequence with W.C. Fields.
The story was the basis for "The Millionaire" TV series of the 1950s. A dying industrial tycoon (who seems mighty perky after the initial "death bed" scene) doesn't want to leave his money to his circling vultures of a family, so he starts picking names at random out of the phone book and giving each person one mega-buck. To give some idea of what that would be like today, shift the decimal point over at least two places. It's not just a comedy, though. The last sequence is performed with considerable pathos.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 23, 2015I wanted my wife to see a WC Field's movie and read the reviews for this one. Lots of good comments so I bought it. The movie itself was very good, but WC Field's had only a small part in this movie. Considering I did not care what WC Field's movie I purchased, I was disappointed. The vendor was excellent and the movie was enjoyable; just not what I had hoped for.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 19, 2024What W. C. Fields does in this movie was one of them most hilarious things I'd ever seen at the time. I had to check it out again.
- Reviewed in the United States on October 13, 2023I enjoyed watching it one time. Not twice.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 29, 2023Liked it because there's no one else Iike WC Fields!

4.0 out of 5 stars Classic Rare Movie Video
This is a very good movie that I have been trying to find for about 30 years. I was very pleased to be able to get it from Amazon. The picture and sound quality on the Blue Ray disc are better than I expected for a movie made in 1932. I received it on time too.
