	Mervyn LeROy - Films as director:, Other films
		The career of Mervyn LeRoy, one of the most successful in the heyday of the studio system, is a reflection of that system.
		When at Warner Brothers, through most of the 1930s, LeRoy was a master of the style dominant at that studio, demonstrated in the fast-paced toughness of films like his Little Caesar and I Am a Fugitive from a Chain Gang.
		But if LeRoy lacks the recognizable visual and thematic coherence we notice in the works of "auteurs" (Welles, Ford, Griffith), it would be incorrect to characterize him as a director without a personal vision, or at least an affinity for specific subjects.

	Comedy Central: Movies - Mervyn LeRoy - Biography
		In his time, which lasted from the '20s until the '60s, Mervyn LeRoy was one of the movie business' heavy hitters, a director/producer whose name evoked quality and entertainment in successful portions, and was associated with some of the more challenging and popular projects ever to come out of the old Hollywood.
		Instead, he produced it, and it became perhaps the most popular film with which LeRoy was associated of his entire career, although it was not to be considered a financial success for another quarter century, after television had re-introduced it to the world, and baby-boomers and their parents embraced it.
		LeRoy's work seemed to suffer somewhat in the years immediately after the war, as the studio lost direction and lost sight of the standards of quality that it had previously maintained in writing and producing pictures.

	The History of Cinema. Mervyn Leroy: biography, reviews, links
		Leroy segna la nascita del gangster sociologico, laddove i precursori, Sternberg e Mamoulian in testa, si erano preoccupati soltanto del lato psicologico.
		LeRoy completely avoids the three stereotypes (the thriller, the detective movie and the court drama) that would be natural given the premises.
		Leroy diresse anche film sul versante opposto: il musical Gold Diggers Of 1933 di Berkeley e la commedia Mister Roberts (1955) di Joshua Logan, con in mezzo melodrammi di successo come Waterlod Bridge (1940), adattamento di una tragedia di Robert Sherwood, in cui una ballerina diventa prostituta quando il suo fidanzato muore nella grande guerra.

		The Christians have a tough go of it, with martyrdom in the Coliseum as punishment for belonging to the new religion in town.
		Finlay Currie does a most inspirational piece of work as Peter and special mention must go to Patricia Laffan who is perfect in a chilling performance as the evil Empress Poppaea.
		Directed by MGM veteran Mervyn LeRoy, who was responsible for such diverse MGM productions as "Waterloo Bridge", and "Blossoms in the Dust", here he is still just as at home with this super scale type of film and his directoral integrity is evident in every frame of this film.
