Re: "You look a lot like ....

I'm watching an episode of Dale Robertson in Tales of Wells Fargo TV show and I say to myself that Lisa Gaye has never looked so fine and that her acting was really good. But once I see the credits I see the actress is Debra Paget. Lisa and Debra were sisters and thus they looked very similar with D...

Nice photo of Lombard but there is sadness there as well, since the photo must have been taken shortly before her plane crashed on January 16th, 1942.

Re: The Big Heat 1953

One of my favorite noir films and favorite Lang directed film. Jeanette Nolan as the widow is a stand-out character in the film; she wants her cut and is going to do what it takes to get it. The overall interactions between the cops in management positions (e.g. Lt. Ted Wilks played by the solid cha...

Re: MovieCollectorOH Site

I too am concerned! There is yet another message board: Classicfilmtvradio. And his account reads: Username: MovieCollectorOH Last Online: Dec 25, 2022 at 2:11pm. So I guess he quit posting there all together. That board is a little less active than this one but some core members from the now dead ...

Re: I Just Watched...

Isn't Double Harness one of those "Lost RKO" titles that TCM rescued some years ago? From Wiki: This (Double Harness) is one of the "lost RKO films" owned by Merian C. Cooper and only re-released in April 2007 when Turner Classic Movies acquired the rights and showed all six fil...

Re: SPORTS

Who are you predicting will win the Super Bowl? I say the 49ers. The Chief's run defense is only average and the 49ers have a sound running game, as well as short passing game. This will limit the amount of time the best player on the field, Mahomes has to score points. Before that last NFC game, I ...

And now about the second game tonight... Not that I really cared if the Lions continued on with their Cinderella season this year or not, but I'm YELLIN' at the freakin' TV screen, "NOOOO, don't DO IT! Just KICK the freakin' FIELD GOAL!" when I saw Head Coach Dan "Mr. Aggressive"...

Re: SPORTS

Ravens can't win the big game. Chiefs in their 4th SB in the last 5 years. What surprised me the most was the defense for both teams really stepped up.

https://youtu.be/LzvL3gb1lGM?si=vRr3GxFfjfFP_hMn Many years ago when Victor Feldman was in The Tom Scott band, which played in Southern California a lot, I would have talks with Feldman. He was friendly and nice. Once I asked him if Miles Davis really anything had to do with writing the song Seven ...

Re: January 2024 Schedule Posted, Robert Mitchum is SOTM

For the first time, I watched Desired Me (1947), with Mitchum and Greer Garson. Now this wasn't part of his SOTM tribute which somewhat surprised me. Anyhow, not really much takes place in the film, running at 91 minutes. This being an early Mitchum film (for MGM no less), we see little of the Mitch...

Re: Noir Alley

Though STAGE FRIGHT isn't one of my favorite Hitchcocks, I do like the flashback. I'm sorry I missed Eddie's comments. In general, I don't think of Hitchcock as being noir, though STRANGERS ON A TRAIN is an exception. The book Film Noir (Ward \ Silver), list 4 Hitchcock films in the "directors...

Re: SPORTS

I understand that in hindsight, one can say that the Bills should have run plays that would have got a few more yards to make it a shorter kick instead of going for a touchdown, but a touchdown would have put the Bills up by 4 so I can understand why the coach called the plays that he did.

Re: SPORTS

I think most people do. Nothing wrong with that. Just keep communing with the dead--those dead presidents. I was rooting for the 49ers, but they made it too close for comfort, but a good game, better than those blow out ones. Yea, the 49s cut it too close for comfort but did make the plays when the...
