Show Boat
1929
Universal's Motion Picture Triumph!
- Harry A. Pollard
- 2h 26m
- March 16, 1929 · United States of America
Overview
This film sticks very closely to the Edna Ferber novel, rather than the musical based on the novel. 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
