About San Francisco
A beautiful singer and a battling priest try to reform a Barbary Coast saloon owner in the days before the great earthquake and subsequent fires in 1906.
Directed by W.S. Van Dyke, San Francisco leans on a strong ensemble — Clark Gable, Jeanette MacDonald, Spencer Tracy — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1936.
