Korda and MGM, 1937–40

Be not either a man of many words, or busy about too many things.

Marcus Aurelius, The Meditations, Book III.

Three Comrades was Remarque’s latest novel, and while he had allowed the first two (All Quiet and The Road Back) to go to Universal he felt they had mishandled them, so took this one to MGM instead.1 A first draft script was prepared by Harvey Gates by October 1936, but the studio then summoned Sherriff for a redraft. He produced a synopsis when he was on his trip to Hollywood2, yet the full script took a little longer (perhaps delayed by his script doctoring on The Road Back), and was only completed in February 1937.
