The Story of Mankind (film)
''The Story of Mankind'' (1957) is an American fantasy film, very loosely based on the nonfiction book ''The Story of Mankind'' (1921) by Hendrik Willem van Loon.
==Production background==
The film is notable mostly for its "campiness", and for featuring an ensemble of notable Hollywood performers in the last years of their careers. The film was former publicist Irwin Allen's first attempt at directing live actors after his documentaries ''The Sea Around Us'' and ''The Animal World''.
Like Allen's previous two films, it features vast amounts of stock footage, in this case, battles and action scenes culled from previous Warner Bros. costume films, coupled with cheaply shot close-ups of actors on much smaller sets. This was the last film picture to feature the three Marx Brothers (and their only film in Technicolor), although they are seen in separate scenes rather than acting together. This was also the last film of star Ronald Colman, the last film of character actor Franklin Pangborn, and the last American film of Hedy Lamarr.
Years later, ''The Story of Mankind'' was included as one of the choices in the 1978 book ''The Fifty Worst Films of All Time''.
