George Marshall (director)
George E. Marshall (December 29, 1891 – February 17, 1975) was an American actor, screenwriter, producer, film and television director, active through the first six decades of film history.
Relatively few of Marshall's films are well-known today, with "Destry Rides AgainThe Blue DahliaThe Sheepman", and "How the West Was Won" being the biggest exceptions.
Marshall co-directed "
How the West Was Won" with John Ford and Henry Hathaway, handling the railroad segment, which featured a celebrated buffalo stampede sequence.
While Marshall worked on almost all kinds of films imaginable, he started his career in the early silent period doing mostly Westerns, a genre he never completely abandoned.
In the 1930s, he established a reputation for comedy, directing Laurel and Hardy in three classic films, and also working on a variety of comedies for Fox (Many of his films at Fox were destroyed in a vault fire in 1937).
Later in his career, he was particularly sought after for comedies.
He did around half a dozen films each with Bob Hope and Jerry Lewis, and also worked with W. C. Fields, Jackie Gleason, and Will Rogers.
