Excellent
Little Foxes (1941) - Adapted by Hellman. Might have been better with Tallulah Bankhead.
Above Average
Watch on the Rhine (1943) - Adapted by Hammett/Hellman.
Dead End (1937) - Adapted by Hellman from the Sidney Kingsley play
Average
Another Part of the Forest (1948) - Good performances - mediocre direction/script
Children's Hour (1961) - Sluggish adaption by Hellman and Hayes.
The Chase (1966) - Hellman disowned the final product
Julia (1977) - Based on Hellman's Memoirs - Fake but accurate.
Below Average
North Star (1943) - Absurd WW II propaganda
The Searching Wind (1946) - Very dull. Hellman hated it.
Toys in the Attic (1963) - Some good acting, otherwise a misfire.
Not made into movies: Autumn Garden, Days to Come, My Mother, My Father, Myself.
