Re: MUSINGS, PONDERINGS, RUMINATIONS AND FANCIES
I'll agree with Holden. I think Zac has had work done. If he keeps pumping so much iron, he may need breast reduction, too. Man, that trailer seemed long and I didn't even make it all the way through.

Re: Noir Alley
On June 4 TCM is showing The Velvet Touch , which is more noirish than Bad for Each Other or several of the films Eddie has shown lately. Rosalind Russell plays a famous actress who's a Margo Channing type. A murder occurs. Maybe TCM could do an evening with The Velvet Touch, A Double Life, Repeat P...

Re: TCM Premieres....
Coming up on June 4 is The Velvet Touch, which is somewhat like All About Eve as a film noir. Rosalind Russell plays the famous actress. Theater life isn't always pleasant, and a murder ensues.

Re: Noir Alley
Joe, I have also heard rave reviews for the French noir Une si jolie petite plage (Such a Pretty Little Beach).

Re: Noir Alley
There's a fine scene fairly early in the film where Cochran and Roman, on the run, try to hide in a long trailer hauling several new cars. You may want to rewind this and watch again.

Re: Ranking Only the Best (and the Very Worst) of a Movie Year Project
I hadn't thought of The Adventures of Ford Fairlane in years! (With good reason, you might say.) I guess Feinberg and Detective Jim won't be attending the Andrew Dice Clay Film Festival. AutoSpell just corrected "Fairlane" to The Adventures of Ford Hairline , which is probably funnier than...

Re: Ranking Only the Best (and the Very Worst) of a Movie Year Project
Days of Thunder does offer us the hilarious prospect of Nicole Kidman as a surgeon with long curly hair--so practical, don't you think? I haven't seen a lot of 1990 films, including the Oscar-winner. Two true favorites : The Hunt for Red October Miller's Crossing Also liked (alphabetical order) : A...

Lesley Manville is great, but I think I'll pass on Let Him Go and hope that World on Fire can resume for another season or three.

I believe that Barbara Baxley was on tour with Tallulah Bankhead in Private Lives. Bankhead did several tours of the play.

I always loved Barbara Baxley's speaking voice, which got her many a voiceover spot.

I've always thought that by the name Berry-Berry we are meant to remember that there is a disease called "beriberi."

Re: MUSINGS, PONDERINGS, RUMINATIONS AND FANCIES
Speaking of Perry Mason, we just saw The Case of the Provocative Protege, with noir gal Virginia Field in a prominent role.
