Re: I Just Watched...
I just watched Cheyenne, episode Fury at Rio Hondo. This was a remake of Hawks\Bogie's To Have and Have Not. Most of the dialog, as well as associated action, was scene-for-scene \ word-for-word. There was the two women (Bacall and Moran), as well as the sidekick (Brennan). The setting was the Mexic...

Re: WHAT HAPPENED TO 40 GUNS???
By the "library," do they mean Watch TCM? That is what I thought they were referring to - WatchTCM currently has the movie available to watch. Some of the providers also have an 'on demand' area where films from TCM are posted. I assume that is what they meant. If that is the case, I wond...

Re: WHAT HAPPENED TO 40 GUNS???
Anyone want to bet 40 Guns will be rescheduled posthaste? 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 lib...

Re: SPORTS
Oh wait, I remember now. Some folks are sticklers for staying on topic. Jimi and Willy are not really sports figures, but I have a feeling the two wouldn’t mind a bit if they were made sport of. Well my L.A. Dodgers are playing good but their travel schedule is messed up. I.e. they play a few home ...

Re: SPORTS
Well at least the cheating Houston Astros are out. If AZ beats Philly in game 7, that would be something. James Jazz Guitar. How you making out man? I was listening to some Jimi Hendrix the other day, and I thought about you. Let’s see, yeah the song was Hey Joe. He wrote that song, no? Hendrix did...

Re: AFI's 25 GREATEST MOVIE MUSICALS OF ALL TIME
All in all, this is the best list from AFT I've ever seen. Sure, it's not mine, but it's not heavily weighted toward recent films, and it includes some essential films. I also was surprised that there were less than a handful of post-studio-era films on this list. While musical is my least favorite...

Re: MUSINGS, PONDERINGS, RUMINATIONS AND FANCIES
Sessue Hayakawa also plays foreign characters. The other night when TCM showed Daughter of the Dragon, Hayakawa played a Chinese detective.

Re: Noir Alley
Thanks. A lot of Argentine films. Eddie seems to like them. I don't remember No Questions Asked. I'll have to look it up. I just saw Bad For Each Other a few months back for the first time so I'll probably skip that one. Not too many reruns at least. Unsure if I've seen No Questions Asked. I rememb...

Re: Noir Alley
I wasn't that impressed with FOLLOW ME QUIETLY. Like I've said before they cannot all be DOUBLE IDEMNITY. It appears that after all these years Eddie is running out of noirs that he can show. I hate that because I love Noir Alley. However, as someone once said "all good things must come to an ...

Have Gun Will Travel
I was just watching Have Gun Will Travel. The local farmers didn't welcome and were thus mean to foreigners, that were also farmers, who came from southern eastern Europe. Well, these local farmers wheat crops were dying due to disease. The two end up getting along, and the show ends with Paladin te...

Re: Top Ten Robert Ryan Films
Just watched Robert Ryan on Zane Grey, a TV western from the late 50s\early 60s. Ryan was solid as a rancher. His wife was played by Cloris Leachman. There was one minor character actor it took me a while to recognize: Don Castle. Looks like but this stage of his career he was a bit player (not that...

Re: Noir Alley
Use of "one of" and "contemporary" gives one a lot of wiggle room!cmovieviewer wrote: ↑May 10th, 2024, 7:49 pm To represent Eddie properly, his actual quote was that Follow Me Quietly is "one of the first contemporary serial killer movies made in Hollywood."
I'm sure he will say more this weekend.
