6 Best Irene Rich Movies

By Vlad Zakh · July 5, 2026

Irene Rich was a silent-era leading lady who moved gracefully into character roles and brought warmth and dignity to Hollywood for over three decades. The Mortal Storm splits a German family over Nazism, Angel and the Badman nurses a wounded outlaw in a Quaker home, The Champ believes in a washed-up boxer’s comeback, and Five and Ten tears a department store heiress’s family with scandal. Lady Windermere’s Fan and Beau Brummel round out the list.
