I agree. However, I just can't tell by looking at "Bringing Up Baby" or "I Was a Male War Bride" or "To Have and Have Not" or "Fig Leaves" or "A Girl in Every Port" or "Rio Bravo" or "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes" that they were all directed by the same man. Unlike, say, the films of Federico Fellini, or Pedro Almodovar, or Ingmar Bergman, or Michelangelo Antonioni, to name a few.

"A Girl in Every Port," "Only Angels Have Wings," and others. I know that doesn't necessarily make him an "auteur," but there's a certain thematic consistency there, wouldn't you say?
