has released a good number of Robinson starrers but they've usually hid behind the "Gangsters" umbrella, presumably because the studio thinks people are more likely to buy films associated with thugs and guns than ones starring the actor who often played those types of roles. If you try to come up with titles given the DVD treatment by the WB where Robinson appeared prominently but didn't brandish a gun or play a tough guy you'd be stuck. There are even more of the same not yet available on DVD but I'm more interested in seeing the non-gangster roles of Robinson find their way to viewers. Five Star Final is, to me, far more brutal than any of Robinson's more celebrated films. The Hatchet Man has Robinson stretching to play a Chinese hit man who kills his best friend but only after promising to take care of the man's daughter (Loretta Young). Both Tiger Shark and The Sea Wolf involve Robinson playing nautical captains but the two pictures stray significantly from each other. The former finds the actor in one of his more warmly sympathetic roles while the latter lets him be utterly cold and frightening. And in the interest of diversity, how about the picture where he plays the real-life doctor who devoted himself to finding a cure for syphilis. That would be Dr. Ehrlich's Magic Bullet , directed by William Dieterle and co-written by John Huston. Jean Harlow: The Signature Collection ( Red Dust , Hold Your Man ,
