"Summer and Smoke"
Seeing a thread on "Sweet Bird of Youth" reminded me, does anyone happen to know if the ending was as depicted in the film, or was that a made-for-Hollywood happy ending? Seems logical to me she'd overdose on the sleeping pills, but then we get this rather incongruous taking up with the sa...

Thanks; good to be here (again)! Actually, the film -- which I watched on tape (still using a VCR; Luddite!!!) -- ended prematurely; not sure if this was my fault, although I checked my VCR clock and it was accurate, or if the TCM clock got messed up again (this happened once before), but fortunatel...

"Jules et Jim"
I'm kind of new to this site (or "new again") and don't see a foreign film category; bah, humbug... But I loved this one, once I got past all the silly Boheimian antics; I'm such a conservative curmudgeon, I always find myself wondering what they live on, food stamps, Medicaid, etc., LOL.....

"Tree Grows in Brooklyn"
My goodness; I can't believe there isn't a thread running about this amazing movie! I was reluctant to watch it (the 1945 version with Peggy Ann Garner) because I so loved the book, but what a great film!!! I don't cry at most movies -- almost never unless there's an animal in it (cry buckets over &...

"Tomorrow"
(Not sure I'm posting in the right place nor if a thread is already going on this; haven't had time to "learn" this site; apologies if redundant, but...) I LOVED "Tomorrow" with Robert Duvall. Caught me broadside, as I hadn't noted it on my To See list and just happened to surf a...

Coming here for a Rest Cure
You know; that respite from the everyday, workaday world or -- as it's known technically "life stressors"? Think Natalie Wood in SITG or Bette Davis in NV... Me, I'm dragging myself up out of the kiddie pool on TCM and settling into a nice chaise lounge to chat with the grownups; ahhh. Pou...

I have to say, I'm equally appalled at their choice of movies/stars when they DO deign to stick to the subject... All modern; fie!!! I dunno, but seems to me TCM would wrest control from these whippersnappers and redirect them to appropriate sites for discussing modern/current movies (or having virt...

???
Well, this is my first attempt to join a discussion on this board (other than my introduction -- it's a reintroduction, to some of you), and I'm totally confused... I assume this thread refers to someone "talkin' smack" on the other board (TCM)??? I tell you what, I've decided it's not wor...

Just wanted to say "hey"... I'm a classic movie refugee from The Other Site... Nice to see old friends listed here and know there's still a home.
