Re: TCM Premieres....
I'm watching it on DVR as I type this. I'm about halfway through it. It's such an odd movie, having many of the beats of the original, but trying not to be a simple copy of it. The substitutions are odd, but don't have the energy of the original. I can certainly understand why McBride replaced the c...

Re: Your Favorite Performances from 1930 to the present

Picture: Unforgiven, which becomes the front-runner
Actor: Eastwood. Now he would probably win
Actress: McDonnell, the only other one I've seen. No difference
S. Actor: Davidson, no change
S. Actress: no change

Re: Least and Most Favorite Movie of the week
Last week I saw three movies. What can you say about The Cheat ? What can you say about a movie about a woman who embezzles money from her charity, blows it all, and then makes a deal with Sessue Hayakawa, who goes all yellow peril when he seeks to collect the debt? That it shows Cecil B. DeMille's ...
