O. Henry's Full House

A dozen top stars (including Charles Laughton, Marilyn Monroe and Anne Baxter) and five famed directors (including Howard Hawks and Henry Koster) join forces to present filmed versions of the best stories of O. Henry, all narrated by John Steinbeck. O. Henry’s short stories, rich with irony and humor, created a lasting image of everyday people in America at the turn of the 20th Century. The five stories chosen for O. HENRY'S FULL HOUSE are The Clarion Call, The Last Leaf, Ransom of the Red Chief, The Gift of the Magi and The Cop and the Anthem. A beautiful score by Alfred Newman, along with dozens of the finest screenwriters, set designers and technicians, make this a lost treasure to discover.
