Description:
Henry Fonda, James Cagney, William Powell and Academy Award(R) winner Jack Lemmon steer a ramshackle Navy cargo ship into the wartime comedy hall of fame. An all-time classic. Year: 1955
Amazon.com essential video:
Henry Fonda re-created his Broadway hit for this 1955 film that was mostly directed by Fonda's frequent collaborator, John Ford (Young Mr. Lincoln, My Darling Clementine)--an ailing Ford was replaced at some point by Mervyn LeRoy--and the results are exceptionally fine. A perfect cast, including James Cagney's irascible captain, William Powell's thoughtful physician, and Jack Lemmon's Oscar-winning Ensign Pulver, give Fonda the right boost to portray his ennui-burdened officer with dignity, self-effacing humor, and not a trace of self-pity. A wonderful film. --Tom Keogh

This movie is always on the top of my list. If you are a fan of the military classics, this is a must-have for your collection. Henry Fonda played this role in the play before the movie was made, so, his portrayal of Mr. Roberts is flawless.
The story is both heart-wrenching & hilarious at the same time. I, personally, cannot get enough of the crew posted on "The Bucket".

Wonderful showcase for all actors envolved. What a splendiferous way to say goodbye to Powell and hello to Lemon - Fonda and Cagney don't hurt either.

ESSENTIAL MOVIE!!! Henry Fonda finally returned to the silver screen after an eight year absence to star in Mister Roberts. The movie is an adaption of the Broadway play in which he portrayed the same role. Mister Roberts takes place in the closing months of WWII but it's as much a comedy as it is a drama. John Ford directed some of the film & was replaced by Mervyn LeRoy who finished it.
Lt. Doug Roberts (Henry Fonda) is the chief cargo officer of the Reluctant, a supply ship in the ... Read More

A movie about a supply ship with a crew that is frustrated with a potentate of a captain. A true powerhouse of casting. Great acting with a storyline that has you laughing one minute, and teary eyed the next. It really does not get any better inside this genre. Henry Fonda is Mr. Rogers, and you will love him too.

In addition to "Mr. Roberts" being a great classic drama/comedy from WWII, the tranfer of this 1955 film to DVD is quite good. Presented in anamorphic widescreen (it was filmed in Cinemascope), the picture is sharp and crisp and the colors are perfect. I viewed the DVD on a large screen (46-inch) high definition TV, played on a Toshiba 1080p HD DVD player. The sound is also excellent. Highly recommended!
