Re: The Q & A on Michael Curtiz with Alan K. Rode on Dec. 12th
Do you have any favorite Mike Curtiz malapropisms? In reading your book I laughed out loud at several interesting turns of phrase, including calling the rather remote and powerful Bing Crosby "Binkie" on the set of WHITE CHRISTMAS, guiding Elvis Presley in one of his best films in KING CRE...

Re: The Q & A on Michael Curtiz with Alan K. Rode on Dec. 12th
http://i.imgur.com/Bg50skn.jpg One of the figures whose relationship with Michael Curtiz is usually characterized as contentious is Errol Flynn.

Re: The Q & A on Michael Curtiz with Alan K. Rode on Dec. 12th
We all seem to be contradictions but perhaps none appears more so than Michael Curtiz in your biography. His personal life was characterized by a 30 years+ marriage to the formidable & talented film pioneer Bess Meredyth Lucas * as well as non-stop philandering. Curtiz, who could direct scenes o...

Re: The Q & A on Michael Curtiz with Alan K. Rode on Dec. 12th
Could you please share how you think Michael Curtiz felt about the actresses he worked with throughout his career? Many of them, including Fay Wray , Bette Davis and Olivia de Havilland , seem to have found him difficult. Do you think he had a harder time relating to women as professional actors and...

Re: The Q & A on Michael Curtiz with Alan K. Rode on Dec. 12th
One of the areas of Curtiz's life that you brought to life was his early work in silents, mentioning that he really was present when the Hungarian film industry began, but I wondered if he was influenced by filmmakers such as Fritz Lang and D.W. Griffith? His early movies seem to have a touch of bot...
