Re: Noir Films

Oh I like Coburn's search for his clothes at the beach in that one. And of course the tuna popovers. :D

Re: Noir Films

I was thinking of just that, Maven when picturing Coburn in The Long Wait! I had seen Coburn in a lot of light comedies before I ever saw him in King's Row and YIKES! What a shock it was. EWWW! Then saw him as creepy uncle in In This Our Life. Yes, Coburn could fit quite well in noir..... :D :D

Re: Noir Films

Wow, WOW, WOW! That noir sounds terrific, ChiO. I am a big fan of Anthony Quinn and just saw him in that small role in Buffalo Bill recently. The movie was simple but he was not. He knocked me out, he was so ambiguous - brutal and seething, and yet still something of a sympathetic character. I could...

Re: Noir Films

JaxXxon, NONE of these gals can be trusted. But try to get a man to listen to you. Heh! Good luck! :shock:
Ha! A man will listen if you have swingy hips, or a .38 in your hand. :shock: :D

God, I love your poster. What a crew! I wouldn't trust any of these dames as far as I could throw them... "Babette looked too good for the place tonight, but then goodness is only relative after all." “As for her perfume, it was the kind you only noticed after she'd left a room, not while ...

The Incredible Scribbling Maven! Wonderful post, T... I think Tom will love movies with this great start you've given him. I am going to go ahead and add My Man Godfrey Munro Leaf taught us that Manners Can Be Fun. http://i312.photobucket.com/albums/ll360/tippy99/tippy99095/mannerscanbefun.jpg My Ma...

Re: Gone With or Without fanfare

I bet, Red! I am sure he got some really off the cuff, spontaneous emotion out of his actors, and I bet even they were surprised at what happened in some scenes... they look shocked or uncomfortable at times. I like that he filmed the changing dynamics of different pairings or groups of people.

Damn! I wish that video were a lot longer. I love guys acting up for the camera. Made me happy to see them just bulling around.

Re: Gone With or Without fanfare

This is a big bummer. I liked Mazursky a lot. His films are funny, dark, direct, outrageous, satirical, interesting, thoughtful, silly, TRUE, and many times, uncomfortable. I think the comic realism and spontaneity that Brooks praised so in Mazursky's films is partly due to the fact that Mazursky sp...

Re: WHAT FILMS HAVE YOU SEEN LATELY?

I love the Countess... Lila Kedrova makes the movie for me, Mike, and is almost the only reason I ever watch Torn Curtain, though it's nice to see Julie Andrews in a sexy role for a change. I suddenly realized a year or so ago that Kedrova was also the pathetic Madame Hortense in Zorba the Greek. Sh...

Re: Your favorite character actors

Ah! I knew something good was coming our way when I saw this thread pop up! LOVE Joe Sawyer, he just turned up today in Brewster`s Millions. Maybe it`s just me but do movies automatically get better when he shows up on screen? I wonder if he found it funny that he got cast as big Irish lugs all the ...

Re: The June 2014 TCM Schedule

Charisma and Edmund Lowe! Nope, I cannot come up with a sentence with those two polar opposites in it! :lol: :lol: That being said, I love it when a director uses an actor's weaknesses to good effect. Like Keanu Reeves in The Matrix? where Neo is shown to be not very smart? There is something so gre...

WOW. You guys have completely won me over. What a great discussion of Woman of the Year! I am going to go back now and watch with fresh eyes after reading your marvelous insights. Red, Maven, and Chris, you really changed my viewpoint on the ending of this movie. I feel like I can finally watch with...
