Remake This: Smilin' Through (1932)


Pairing 1931's Best Actor (Frederic March for "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde") and Actress (Norma Shearer for "The Divorcee") would prove great things for Sidney Franklin's "Smilin' Through." The film would gross a overall total of $2,033,000 ($1,004,000 from the United States and Canada and $1,029,000 internationally) and making a profit of $529,000. To make matters even better, "Smilin' Through" would be nominated for the 1934 Academy Award for Outstanding Production and Irving Thalberg, who cast Frederic March with his wife in the first place, won the Medal of Honor at the 1933 Photoplay Awards.
