Affairs of Cappy Ricks -- Cappy Ricks, a crusty old sea captain, returns home from a long voyage to discover that his family and his business are in chaos--his daughter is set to marry a nitwit that he can't stand...

Hoosier Schoolboy -- A schoolteacher comes to a new town and finds herself caught up in the town's problems and disputes.

This classic Hollywood drama set in a Manhattan slum in the 1930s stars Humphrey Bogart as gangster Baby Face Martin, who returns to his old neighborhood, is spurned by his mother (Marjorie Main) and becomes a bad influence on the neighborhood kids. Working from a script penned by Lillian Hellman, William Wyler directs this adaptation of Sidney Kingsley's hit Broadway play. Claire Trevor, Sylvia Sidney and Joel McCrea co-star.

Captain Cappy Ricks returns home after an extended trip overseas to find his daughter engaged to a man he doesn't approve of, his shipping business taken over by his future mother-in-law, his beloved yacht completely automated, and it appears no one in the family will honor his authority anymore. So he makes a plan with his friend Bill (Talbot) to trap his entire family on board the yacht, to try to gain back his position as the head of the family by bossing everyone around, which backfires. Then Cappy and Bill fake a fire on board to shipwreck the family on an island as a last resort, but the plan goes wrong once again, and the whole group becomes shipwrecked for real! A zany comedy filled with great laughs and slapstick mis-adventures.
