Show Boat
This film sticks very closely to the Edna Ferber novel, rather than the musical on which the novel is based. There are only two major changes from Ferber's book : *Julie in this version is a white woman, not a racially mixed one; therefore she and her husband are not unlawfully married. * Ravenal returns at the end, instead of dying as in the novel Show Boat featuring Laura La Plante and Joseph Schildkraut is not currently available to stream, rent, or buy but you can add it to your want to see list for updates. It's a drama and romance movie with an average IMDb audience rating of 6.1 (319 votes).
