Re: Noir Alley
...but I just didn't buy Thelma having a sudden case of remorse or maybe disgust and sticking that cig lighter into Tony's puss and causing the car crash. To me, this had the Production Code requirements of the time written all over it. I also vaguely remember watching this film years ago but could...

Re: July 2023 Schedule Posted, 1970s film stars featured
I liked when they added the second showing of Noir Alley. I do sometimes try to make a point to watch Noir Alley in real-time, but that was not happening when it came on at 7am on Sunday. Plus, 7am on Sunday is not a noir time for me. 7am is time for things like "The Golden Girls" or &quo...

Summer Under the Stars Wishlist
With the July schedule released, that means that the annual Summer Under the Stars (SUTS) schedule should be available within the next month or so. Who would you like to see featured this year? While I know that some of the days will feature the usual suspects, I'd love to see some of the less featu...

Re: July 2023 Schedule Posted, 1970s film stars featured
I like the 70s SOTM theme. I've been wanting to see more films from this time. Next we'll be into the annual SUTS programming. With "Wrath of God" w/ Rita Hayworth and Robert Mitchum extending over to 8/1, I wonder if this is indicative of a Mitchum or Hayworth SUTS day. Gilda precedes it,...

Re: The Warner Archive
This is a great list of movies. If I didn't already own them, I'd be all over "Angel Face," The Damned Don't Cry," and "Caged." I am probably going to get "Dangerous When Wet" to replace a damaged DVD I have. Like you I don't feel the need to replace movies I alre...

Re: Really? You've NEVER seen that Classic Film?
And I thought I was the only curmudgeon who didn't luv luv luv Mrs. Doubtfire , as my spousal unit does. Since it's so unreal anyway, I thought it should have had the "happy" ending where the spouses get back together. For me, the film has all the problems noted by Cinema International an...

Re: The Warner Archive
Glad I'm not the only one still collecting DVDs. Talk to anyone in the music/movies store and they'll tell you DVD sales have plummeted to a trickle. Generally, my beef with streamed movies is the picture quality/cropping/sound. That, and I often have to turn DVDs back because of dozing off. I have...

Re: Really? You've NEVER seen that Classic Film?
I always sympathized with Sally Field in "Mrs. Doubtfire." This is a woman whose husband always wants to be the "fun" parent. She always has to be the bad guy, while her husband gets to have fun and be the exciting parent. Case in point, the opening scene where Robin Williams has...

Re: June 2023 Schedule, Katharine Hepburn is SOTM
I'm excited that they're showing "The Apple." I've heard that this film is really bad, but has a bit of a cult following. I'm looking forward to seeing it.

Re: June 2023 Schedule, Katharine Hepburn is SOTM
Rooster Cogburn was filmed in Southern Oregon. They raft the Rogue River. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rooster_Cogburn_(film)#Production That said, it’s a great film. That's good to know. Thanks! It looks like they filmed in both Southern and Central Oregon. Smith Rock State Park is near Bend, w...

Re: June 2023 Schedule, Katharine Hepburn is SOTM
“I would say mine is 3/4 into June?? My birthday is June 22.” A fine movie for your birthday could be Rooster Cogburn . I haven't seen that one yet! I always enjoy when my birthday is mentioned in the movies. So far, I've seen/heard it in: "Summer Stock"-(It's the date on the calendar whi...

I apologize for breaking in on this interesting and fun thread, with something that doesn't relate to it at all.
