Would the main character be one of the following: spy, detective, superhero.

(the 2nd Putfile played OK this time)

John - the second audio clip on Putfile isn't starting - maybe you can check this and repost.

Well I was hoping someone else would have started this off, but I'll go ahead. It sounds spooky and has that "Flight of the Bumblebee" feel to it, so my guess is The Fly.

Chris - I thought the deadline you posted was November 30th? You only opened up this contest 36 hours ago - I think this is a little premature as there are people who do not visit here on a daily basis. We have not heard anything from these good folks, all of whom have posted within the last 3 weeks...

Hey Moraldo - someone posted a clip of this performance on Youtube. I would try and post it here, but I am a complete techno-boob.

Pirates of Penzance (1983) on Retroplex

I was just scanning thru the channels on my Comcast Digital and saw this film listed. I love Kevin Kline and am really fond of this goofy rendition of Pirates with Linda Ronstadt and Angela Lansbury. I know I taped it eons ago on my old Betamax. However, this film is not currently available on tape ...

Hi Moira - Thanks for including the swell photo of Regie! I am admittedly a techno-boob and haven't a clue how to go about the web capturing images and including them in posts. Those Three French Girls sounds like great fun - IMDB states "dialogue by P.G. Wodehouse" - I can just imagine De...

feaito - I know I saw Love Letters earlier this year on TCM for the first time. I wish I had recorded it, because although I remember I liked it, the film just didn't make as much an impression on me as Portrait of Jennie . But should it play again, I'm sure I would watch it again. As to Jennifer Jo...

Hi Dewey - I've only just become aquainted with Richard Dix due to TCM playing a slew of his films earlier this year, and I like him a lot! I was planning on recording The Whistler and due to your recomendation, I will also include The Mysterious Intruder. There are some other familiar names in the ...

That Hamilton Woman - for Romantics only

A big star in my Now Playing guide for me to record this seldom played film on TCM Sunday night. Historical film? to a degree; Propaganda? somewhat - this was Churchill's favorite film viewed over 80 times. But for me, I watch this film solely to wallow in the romantic exchanges between the stunning...

What an amazing, shudderingly powerful experience . . I've tried since my teenage years to catch up with La Belle et La Bete , and came annoyingly close on several occasions; I am pleased that I persisted . . and gratified that it was all worth it, and did not disappoint . . even for a minute.

I was so stoked when this film was recently placed on schedule at The Stanford. I had hopes one day of being able to see this rare Powell & Pressburger film, and now here it was being presented on the big screen in all its Technicolor Cinema-scope extravagance. Just to view this astonishing prin...

Reginald Denny - Silent Clown??!!

Who knew? Not me, until my local retro theatre scheduled a few of his silent movies the past couple of months. I first recall seeing Reginald Denney in Rebecca as Frank Crawley and his memorable line "she was the most beautiful creature I ever saw.." He can be found in numerous films of th...

I just wanted to mention that I was tooling around on Youtube yesterday and found six(6)! clips posted from Constant Nymph. Great print quality; 3 featured Joan Fontaine's character, and the other 3 clearly posted by a Peter Lorre devotee.
