i agree about your assesment of the modern woman. as i'm from the U.K i feel all our best actresses are over 60 with Julie Walters the babe of group in her mid 50s. Helen Mirren is better looking than ever at 61 as is Brenda Blethyn at 60. i do feel that the likes of Barbara Stanwyck, Myrna Loy, Joa...

Maureen O'Sullivan's African Queen
The one film that reminds me of the Katharine Hepburn/Humphrey Bogart classic the African Queen is The Tall T with Randolph Scott and Maureen O'Sullivan. The Tall T is a minor classic, made in a typical format of a 1950s western Though recently married, the plain middle aged O'Sullivan's character w...

lillian Gish, should have been the greatest ever actress
It's just my opinion, but if circumstances had been different, i think Lillian Gish would have been right up there with the likes of Bette Davis and Kate Hepburn as the screens greatest ever actress. Imo i would also class her as the first lady of film as she started in the early 1900s and was still...

i liked your post. i would have mentioned Verdoux myself, but for the spelling. to me it was a bit like Buster Keaton's The General (even though there was a 20 yr difference between the making of the two films), as both films were yrs ahead of their time, but failed partly because of the dark side o...

Charlie Chaplin the screens greatest genius
Charlie Chaplin was a great comic, a great actor, a great director, a great producer, a great musical composer and a great movie mogul! Chaplin began his career at Keystone studios in 1914 and though greatly successful, his films there don't appear to have stood the test of time. however, this chang...

Thanks again for the video i don't think it was a lack of talent that prevented Cliff from hitting it big in America. it's been said that in the late 50s it was difficult for a British performer to get exposure in the States unlike later with The Beatles. also i don't think Cliff wanted to leave hom...
