Quite some time ago, the subject of films featuring 'strange bedfellows' came up. I've recently come across a couple more:
The Outrage (1964) - Rashomon, transplanted to the Old West. I found it a little odd to see Edward G. Robinson appearing onscreen with William Shatner.

Paul Newman is badly miscast as a Mexican and Claire Bloom (who plays Hera in Clash of the Titans) struggles to maintain a Southern Belle accent. The only really good thing about this version is the cinematography of James Wong Howe.
Three Cases of Murder (1955) - A trilogy of fantastic stories involving murder and the supernatural, the last of which stars Orson Welles. While they don't appear on screen together, the stories are all introduced by Eamonn Andrews.
