Between Two Worlds (1944) starring John Garfield, Paul Henreid, Sidney Greenstreet

Imagine a movie about eight people, seemingly chosen at random, riding on a cruise ship, heading to an unknown destination. It’s a movie about the interaction between these seeming strangers, and what happens as they near their destination — and it’s absolutely riveting.

The Story of Mankind (1957) starring Vincent Price, Ronald Colman, Cedric Hardwicke, the Marx Brothers (Groucho, Chico, Harpo), and many more

In a nutshell, The Story of Mankind has humanity on trial for its’ very existence. The Devil himself (played delightfully by Vincent Price) is the prosecutor. The Spirit of Mankind (Ronald Colman) is the advocate. Cedric Hardwicke as the Celestial Judge. Evidence is presented as a series of vignettes of various stars presenting famous historical moments. Some moments are serious, and others more silly. The Marx Brothers appear in their final film. However, they never show up together. Each brother has their own distinct scene.
