Charles Murphy's Filmography on TV

In Old California (1942)

The Villain Still Pursued Her (1940)

Victorian melodrama gets a big send-up in this spoof production of the old play "The Drunkard; or, The Fallen Saved." The play within the movie is the old one where evil villain Cribbs schemes to get his lusty clutches on the heroine by driving her naive husband to alcoholic ruin. Luckily, a temperance lecturer is on hand to set things straight, as is the great Buster Keaton as the drunkard's brother.

Destry Rides Again (1939)

When a tough western town needs taming, the mild-mannered son of a hard-nosed sheriff gets the job.

Dick Tracy's G-Men (1939)

A mad doctor named Zanoff uses a drug to bring himself back from the dead after his execution in prison. Dick Tracy sets out to capture Zanoff before he can put his criminal gang back together again.
