Show Boat

Year: 1929

Runtime: 146 mins

Language: english

Director: Harry A. Pollard

Drama

The production follows Edna Ferber’s novel closely, ignoring the later musical adaptation. Only two significant departures appear: Julie is portrayed as a white woman rather than a mixed‑race character, making her marriage lawful, and Ravenal survives, returning at the end instead of dying as in the book.
