Re: MUSINGS, PONDERINGS, RUMINATIONS AND FANCIES
PLAN 9 FROM OUTER SPACE is coming up next! One of the legendary worst movies, it is still more entertaining than what I'm trying to get through now for my first viewing: TOWARD THE UNKNOWN. When Bill Holden's leading lady is Virginia Leith, (in addition to a cornball script), you know it's turkey ti...

Re: Noir Alley
Wesley Addy summed it all up but we still don't buy it. Fish four days old, etc. in signature Odets parlance, lol.

Re: MUSINGS, PONDERINGS, RUMINATIONS AND FANCIES
Cameron makes a funny but all too brief appearance as gangster Rojak trying to shut down King Kaiser's (Joseph Bologna) mob sketch in MY FAVORITE YEAR. Who knew he could do comedy as well? A removalist. The hat. So funny! One of my favorite movies. 😁 Hi Mommy Bunny! I love it too. "Welcome to ...

Re: MUSINGS, PONDERINGS, RUMINATIONS AND FANCIES
Ben Stiller. What a precocious kid. Just kiddin'. Pelham is a wonderful 1970s thriller. Thrills, chills, spills, and laughs too. I was kind of hoping that Martin Balsam would get away with it. I get a kick of the the finale, as if the sound of a sneeze would hold up in court. Hey, it's just a movie...

Re: Noir Alley
Dargo, I can't speak with any great knowledge about that blacklist era but do remember there were several actors who actually did commit suicide because they thought the accusations, whether true or not, would end their career in any entertainment medium be it stage, screen, or television. Charlie's...

Re: MUSINGS, PONDERINGS, RUMINATIONS AND FANCIES
TCM has been showing All Mine To Give every Christmas for years. Beautiful, touching film.i always try to watch whenever it's shown.Watched again last night, that makes at least 5 times. Rex Thompson who plays Robbie, played Tyrone Power's son in The Eddy Duchin Story a year before All Mine To Give...

Re: Noir Alley
As wise dear old Nat tells Charlie: "Darling, please take the long view -- seven years of financial security" You almost have to agree with Hoff, repulsive and misogynistic as he is: "The woman should stay out of her husband's business when he is providing the bread and butter" W...

Re: MUSINGS, PONDERINGS, RUMINATIONS AND FANCIES
laffite, I want your honest opinion of ALL MINE TO GIVE, good, bad or indifferent, lol. I have a lot more respect for Cameron Mitchell; watching this movie back-to-back with NO DOWN PAYMENT, it's easy to come to the conclusion that he just might have been an underrated actor. Don't be spooked by Pat...

Re: MUSINGS, PONDERINGS, RUMINATIONS AND FANCIES
Get out your handkerchiefs for ALL MINE TO GIVE this evening. I've said this before and I'll say it again -- Max Steiner's score will immediately make you break down and cry even before the credits roll. This is in keeping with the tribute to wonderful Glynis Johns who we recently lost. I only wish ...
