Elmer Gantry (7-Jul-1960)
Director: Richard Brooks Writer: Richard Brooks From novel: Elmer Gantry by Sinclair Lewis Music by: André Previn Producer: Bernard Smith Keywords: Drama, Prohibition Elmer Gantry, glib traveling salesman with a checkered past, opportunistically teams up with Sister Sharon Falconer, preaching fire and brimstone in their religious revival visiting town to town. His charisma and her sincere faith seem a perfect match, reflected in the popularity of their show. Will Gantry's past catch up with him? Won Oscars for Best Actor, Best Supporting Actress and Best Adaptation; received additional nominations for Best Picture and Best Dramatic Score.
