What is the name of the only studio generated movie that starred John Barrymore, Lionel Barrymore and Ethel Barrymore?
Rasputin and the Empress is a 1932 film about Imperial Russia starring the Barrymore siblings (John, as "Prince Chegodieff"; Ethel, as Czarina Alexandra; and Lionel Barrymore, as Grigori Rasputin). It is the only film in which all three siblings appear together.
The film's inaccurate portrayal of Prince Felix Yusupov and his wife Princess Irina (renamed "Prince Chegodieff" and "Princess Natasha") caused a historically significant lawsuit against MGM and gave rise to the "all persons fictitious disclaimer", which has since become standard in Hollywood works of fiction.
After Eight starred Lionel and John Barrymore. Carolina starred Lionel Barrymore. Grand Hotel starred John Barrymore.

The article makes it sound like the filming was not exactly a fun movie experience.

And the 1917 film, National Red Cross Pageant. Unfortunately, this film is considered a lost film.

Teri Gallagan-Horning, That's what I thought--and, I could've sworn Ethel Barrymore was in "Grand Hotel."

For the record, Grand Hotel also starred Lionel Barrymore.
