Of human bondage (1934) as Policeman removing Mildred on the stairs

Not the very best of pictures to see Frank, this is the best i could do. This was a drama movie with Bette Davis in the title role as a waitress who is no good at all and has several love affairs before the dramatic end.
Here he is a real extra, seen for a few seconds and not very visible i'm afraid.

The new adventures of Tarzan (1935) credited as Major Francis Martling

This is one of his biggest roles that he made in this serial about Tarzan, lord of the jungle and even credited as third billing!
The role of Tarzan was played by Herman Brix, who made most of his movies later on under the name Bruce Bennett.

Steamboat round the bend (1935) as Spectator at the river bank

Here he has only a cameo role as he is a spectator, in the background, seeing the race of the two steamboats.
Unusual Ford movie about a Steamboat owner who defies a rich owner of another boat to do a race to obtain money to find a witness
who can discharge his nephew who is accused of murder.
I had to search deeply to find him here.

The prisoner of Shark island (1936) as Union army officer at the trial

Interesting story about a certain doctor Mudd, who is unwillingly involved in the murder of president Lincoln when he helps the
wounded murderer of the president and is accused of betrayal.
Another good and known picture from director John Ford.

Mary of Scotland (1936) as Douglas

Earlier movie of this story again by Ford, with Katherine Hepburn as Mary, well received in those days, but now slightly dated.
Here he has more screen time than usual.

The charge of the light brigade (1936) as An officer

Short appearance in this classic historical adventure movie set in India in 1856 when the English army is under attack by Surat
Khan who murders innocent citizens.
Major Vickers played by dashing Errol Flynn is determined to avenge their deaths and will attack the enemy with a deadly charge
at Balaklava.
This is an uncertain ID, but i believe it's him in the center.

Parnell (1937) as George Davis

The story about the life of famous Irish politician Charles Parnell around 1880 and his affair with a married woman who costs
almost his political career.
This movie was a flop at the box office in these days and was considered as the worst movie Clark Gable played in.
