1896-1991Entra en el mundo del cine a comienzos de los anos 20, abriendo de par en par la puerta de la actuacion, labor en la que le acreditaba su experiencia previa sobre los escenarios. En 1924 se estrena como realizador, tarea en la que persiste hasta 1967. Entre 1933 y 1935 es el director casi unico de la modesta productora Powerty Row. En 1935 pasa a Metro- Goldwyn-Mayer, donde permanecera hasta 1962. Dirige, en los mas de cuarenta anos de profesion, cerca de 200 peliculas, de las que unas 120 son sonoras. Aborda todos los generos, si bien se encuentra mas comodo dentro de la accion y la aventura, donde obtiene sus mayores reconocimientos, como en Ivanhoe (1953) y en Los caballeros del rey Arturo (Knights of the Round Table, 1954), por ejemplo, ademas de tres entregas del Tarzan protagonizado por Johnny Weissmuller. Entre otras muchas cosas, es uno de los pioneros en el uso de formatos anchos. Su actividad en el western, sin embargo, es reducida; se limita a un punado de peliculas a comienzos del sonoro, incluido un serial, a cuatro filmes en los anos 40 protagonizados por Wallace Beery, y a alguna que otra esporadica aparicion en el genero, al que no contribuye especialmente, ni en cantidad ni en calidad.Border Romance. 1929. 66 minutos.
