The distinguished career of Academy Award winner* George Arliss is marked by his powerful portrayals of historical figures from Disraeli to Alexander Hamilton to Voltaire. Fans who don't know Arliss also excelled at comedy are in for a treat with these three charmers. Drama mixes with laughs in Old English, as an indebted shipbuilder concocts a clever scheme to provide for his beloved grandchildren. Mary Astor costars in A Successful Calamity, a witty tale of a tycoon who feigns ruin to teach his inattentive kin that family means more than finance. To complete the triple bill, in The King's Vacation Arliss plays a not-so-merry monarch who takes a break from royal duties, only to discover the simple life is anything but.
