Re: I Just Watched...

ALSO ALSO Yes, THE BEGUILED i s great... there is SOMETHING INTRIGUING about PRETTY MAIDS ALL IN A ROW e ven if it is a confounding movie on multiple levels. i recently rewatched PICNIC AT HANGING ROCK and while I don't have a clue what it's really all about, I don't dislike it. I only included Ame...

Re: WHAT HAPPENED TO 40 GUNS???

I highly doubt it. 40 Guns is a Fox now Disney film. But they paid to broadcasat it and it never aired. You could be right; Here is what someone just posted at the other movie website: I just visited the TCM library. FORTY GUNS is on the library and I checked it out - it plays fine - also with Spie...

Re: I Just Watched...

...1971 - 1975 is one of my favorite periods of American cinema. So many movies that I love and that I can watch over and over again were released in those years. THE LAST PICTURE SHOW THE BEGUILED KLUTE McCABE & MRS. MILLER PRETTY MAIDS ALL IN A ROW FIDDLER ON THE ROOF ... CABARET ... AMERICAN...

Re: What Horror and Sc-Fi films have you seen lately?

Well, it only took 19 months, but I finally finished the first season of AMC's Interview with the Vampire . And, although that season only takes one about halfway through Anne Rice's original novel, I find it better than both its source novel and its 1994 cinematic predecessor. In my opinion, using...

Re: MUSINGS, PONDERINGS, RUMINATIONS AND FANCIES

Well it's certainly full of sound and fury... But I wouldn't say signifying nothing. (Yes, I know that part is from Shakespeare not Faulkner.) The sweetie and I watched it on Watch TCM with an introduction by Martin Scorsese. We enjoyed it, especially the ending. We did think that the movie poster ...

[quote=Hibi post_id=200675 time=1716226502 user_id=849 The early 70s was not a good period for movies. As the 70s progressed it got better. See, i feel the exact opposite- as someone who has come late to viewing films of the 70s, the early 70s and especially 1971 have a lot of interesting and fasci...

Re: MUSINGS, PONDERINGS, RUMINATIONS AND FANCIES

LAND OF THE PHAROAHS -- I guess every great director is entitled to make at least one bad picture in their career. "Bring the snake in a strong basket" "The gods of Egypt have spoken!" I still love the ending though. So deliciously ironic. William Faulkner worked on the script! ...

Re: For Bronxgirl48: Mother's Day

Gene Hackman is great in everything! I love Gene Hackman, one of my very favorite actors. He is brilliant in drama and comedy, great, great actor. Gene Hackman is one of those actors who truly creates the illusion that he's not acting, whether he's playing an "ordinary" person or a flambo...

My introduction to daytime soaps was the ABC soaps. The woman that my sister & I stayed with after school recorded all of the ABC soaps. The one my sister and I liked the best was ALL MY CHILDREN. We didn't really care for GENERAL HOSPITAL. Our aunt (my mother's sister) later introduced us to D...

Re: I Just Watched...

Yes, Alma is back as a Spanish name, pronounced "Ahlma." The name from the past was "you can call me Al-ma." What movie character was named Alma? I seem to remember one. Geraldine Page's character in SUMMER AND SMOKE was named Alma. There's even a line where Alma says that her n...
