Had Follow Me Quietly been shown before? Some of it seemed awfully familiar. Nicely directed. Dorothy Patrick is like a cross between Dorothy Malone and Rosemary Clooney. Jeff Corey did some scene stealing.

Interesting intro by Eddie about the condition of RKO just before this picture was made.

Speaking of Dracula: the first ten minutes of Kevin Spacey's performance as Hickey in The Iceman Cometh are available on YouTube. This is simply some of the best acting I have ever seen.

A comparison of the 1960 (Sidney Lumet, TV) and 1973 (John Frankenheimer, AFT series of filmed plays for movies) versions of The Iceman Cometh. Both are highly recommended. The 1960, on YouTube, has starts and stops, but this isn't too distracting. I rather prefer the black & white to the 1973 d...

If you are a Thelma Ritter fan, The Model and the Marriage Broker is a must. I think it was shown on TCM once before. Thelma has the leading role, although Jeanne Crain has top billing.

And again tonight.

I'v e had to log in several times, including once in the last week.

Having now seen both the 1960 TV version of THE ICEMAN COMETH with Jason Robards and the 1973 AFT version with Lee Marvin, I'm curious if anyone has seen either Kevin Spacey or Nathan Lane as Hickey? It's hard to think of any role that all four of these actors could play. I can imagine Kevin Spacey ...

Though One Is a Lonely Number is no great shakes and hardly a cinematic landmark, it accurately captures the mood and manners of its time. It also has a more honest resolution than the fantasy ending of An Unmarried Woman . I knew several women whose marriages broke up in the 1970s. Most never re-ma...

Mandy Patinkin is hot as Avigdor in YENTL. But he looks so much like one of my uncles that there's no fun in that for me! https://i.imgur.com/0WNDONhl.png https://i.imgur.com/O6F3XIel.png https://i.imgur.com/i64x0nPl.png He sure doesn't look like any of my uncles, so I guess we can make a date and ...

I never get tired of A FACE IN THE CROWD (which is a good thing since they air it so much, lol) so decided to dive in again. Now, some of you might know that my recent great will power (not when it comes to Lay's Dill Pickle potato chips) concerning maintaining a calm attitude towards a certain mai...

One of the other fun things about THE MIND READER (1933) was that many of the women's costumes featured one of the more curious fashion trends of the time, which was to have TWO ENTIRE MINKS WITH HEADS and GLASS-EYES AND CLAWS ATTACHED, sort of lashed together and wrapped about the body- giving off...

Au hasard Balthazar (1966). Parallel stories of donkey and French village girl each suffering unrelenting cases of "sh!t happens". This is one of those movies where I wonder what the critics who select the films for lists like the Sight and Sound all-time lists are smoking. It's not a bad...

I also like TEA WITH MUSSOLINI although I only saw it once. I actually saw this movie in the theater in 1999 with my mother and grandmother. They both loved it. I'm looking forward to watching it again to see what the adult me will think about it. I remember thinking how wonderful Cher was in her r...

That's what I get for using Wiki instead of keeping a record of films seen. 28 Up is a huge favorite.
