The Power and the Glory (1933 film) life. Otherwise, according to Sturges, their lives did not correspond. In 2014, "The Power and the Glory" was deemed "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant" by the Library of Congress and selected for preservation in the National Film Registry. The film is unrelated to the 1940 novel of the same title by Graham Greene. After the funeral service for Tom Garner (Spencer Tracy), a powerful and much-hated railroad tycoon who committed suicide, his best friend Henry (Ralph Morgan) recalls Garner's life, his family problems, and his rise from track walker to president of the railroad. Sturges originally wrote the script as
Power and Glory as the victors. Bobby Heenan while doing commentary would sometimes refer to Paul Roma as "Romeo Roma" while Gorilla Monsoon would sometimes refer to Power and Glory as "Herc and Jerk". Despite having a number of shots at the WWF Tag Team Champions, The Hart Foundation, Roma and Hercules never won the gold. Their misfortune continued at WrestleMania VII where they lost to the Legion of Doom in 59 seconds. Soon after, Power and Glory teamed up with Slick’s other charge, The Warlord, for a series of 6-man tag team matches that usually saw the team on the losing side.
