Re: I Just Watched...

The Sterile Cuckoo (1969), College student (Wendell Burton) meets manipulative, clingy stalker (Liza Minnelli) on a bus back to college. You can tell from my one-sentence synopsis that I didn't much like this film, largely because the Minnelli character sets off red flags and alarm bells almost fro...

Re: I Just Watched...

Hey, Lorna, maybe you could start a "Cane River" line of designs featuring "Verdant Louisiana Green" and "Tang-Colored Orange"! I believe your idea is late. It has been done. https://i.imgur.com/Mgcg3kF.jpg Those should come with a warning label: Buy only if 6 ft or ta...

Re: February 2024 Schedule Posted, 31 Days of Oscar

Wasn't there a special Scorsese special segment where he talks about the movie Harold & Maude? Or is it just a 2 minute intro? Sorry but I’m not aware of an extra or intro where Scorsese comments on Harold and Maude. Perhaps someone else can think of it. The scheduled showing of Harold and Maud...

I was invited to her birthday party one year, which was thrown by friends of hers who lived in a town house in the East 50s. A woman came over to me and said, "Hello, I'm Lesley Gore."
Did she cry?

Re: Villains And Villainesses

Jacki Weaver's character in Animal Kingdom is another great villainess.

Eve Harrington and Addison De Witt give you two in the same movie.

Re: MUSINGS, PONDERINGS, RUMINATIONS AND FANCIES

I haven't seen that one, but I did see Judy Garland singing "Silent Night" in what feels like a scene pulled from a movie since the short doesn't have any credits.

Anyone know what movie it's from?

Re: MUSINGS, PONDERINGS, RUMINATIONS AND FANCIES

Modern movie musing. Is it just me or is the modern fall of movies rarely more encapsulated than they were in yesterday's Golden Globes nominations? Barbie, based on the doll, was tied for second place for most nominated film of all time, tied with Cabaret, and just behind the record holder, Nashvi...

Re: I Just Watched...

This version had the nudity and sex cut out to get a GP rating.
To be fair, nobody wanted to see Boris Karloff naked anyway.

Re: I Just Watched...

Fedya, I always thought Sleepy Hollow was part of upstate New York, the Adirondack region. Nope. It's in Westchester. I recently watched The Famous Ferguson Case , a Joan Blondell pre-Code about the yellow press. It's a programmer, so not as good as Five Star Final or The Front Page , but pretty go...

One thing I noticed was Cantone does an awful Bette Davis impression, he seems to be doing Bette after her 1983 stroke.
No. I find Mario Cantone incredibly obnoxious.

Re: I Just Watched...

Sleepy Hollow is not upstate.

(Real upstate NY only begins when you get to the 518 area code, although some might argue it begins at I-84.)
