George Washington Slept Here

Sir Sidney Poitier, the American-born, Bahamian-bred film great, is 94 today. He and Sophia Loren are the only living actors on the American Film Institute's 1999 list of the top 50 greatest screen legends of all time. Poitier was the No. 22 male. Loren was No. 21 in the category of Top 25 Female Legends. Since there's no Oscarfest on TCM this month, the cable channel will air two of his films tonight: "Lilies of the Field" (1963 at 8 p.m.) and "Guess Who's Coming to Dinner" (1967 at 10 p.m.). Poitier was recently honored by Arizona State University, which named its film school after him. The actor's biggest connection to the state: "Lilies of the Field," the comedy/drama in which he played handyman Homer Smith -- a godsend to a group of immigrant nuns in the Arizona desert. Smith was persuaded by the willful Mother Superior (Lilia Skala, pictured below) to build a chapel for the townspeople. Produced and directed by Ralph Nelson (who would collaborate with Poitier again), the production was adapted by James Poe from the 1962 novel by William Edmund Barrett. The film received Academy Award nominations for Best Picture, Best Actor (Poitier), Best Supporting Actress (Skala), Best Adapted Screenplay (Poe) and Best Black-and-White Cinematography (Ernest Haller). Poitier was the No. 1 box-office star for 1967 and headlined three hit films -- "To Sir, with Love," "In the Heat of the Night" and "Guess Who's Coming to Dinner." Somehow, he didn't receive an Academy Award nomination for any of the films. The 40th annual Oscars ceremony was delayed two days -- to April 10, 1968 -- in the aftermath of the assassination of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. So Poitier was on hand to announce that his "Guess Who's Coming to Dinner" co-star Katharine Hepburn had won the award for Best Actress (it was accepted by her friend George Cukor). Also, Poitier was there to congratulate his "In the Heat of the Night" co-star Rod Steiger on his Best Actor win. The two actors returned to the stage when "In the Heat of the Night" was named Best Picture.

Isn't she a great talent? I had heard she took the part because she wanted to see if she could sing, I believe her father is a professional singer. But her comic timing, gestures, voice, everything is just top notch. Most especially considering how young she was when she made Rocky Horror. I've never seen her give a bad performance & she's kept her life & career classy despite that potentially exploitative early role as Janet.

Last night I trotted out the old chestnut ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW '76 that I usually have on Halloween because it can easily be interrupted for trick or treaters. This time I watched it through silently like my first viewing in 1976, in a virtually empty, quiet theater. I remember my reaction well, the film adaptation was so dynamic! The movie made the performances intimate (although when seeing the stage show, I was in the front row center) while expanding the experience with the marvelous sets & orchestration. While thrilled it became a Saturday Night Midnight feature at our local neighborhood "palace", I stopped going around 1980 when people started acting out in front of the screen. The movie is wonderful, I don't know why people find it "terrible". Every performance is spot on & my eyes wandered to different actors this viewing, often catching really funny emoting. I noticed Brad & Janet's bedroom sets were exactly the same set just with different lighting & noticed graffiti on the tile wall of the laboratory, never noticed before. What a 1976 audience called "cheesy" special effects were actually pretty expensive for the day (castle rising) but still gave a 50's creature feature vibe. Some effects (like the plaster/cheesecloth castings) were extremely low tech, but cleverly done retaining the feel the stage show. I especially love the Criminologist's pasted photo/text folder & classroom pull down dance steps. The songs are great, with a rockabilly feel...the 50's were very popular for newly emerging punk scene in the mid 70's. Meatloaf was spectacular, his voice was so high back then! The costuming was incredibly daring for the time and actually set the tone for Punk and later Goth, now all pretty mainstream styling. But to me, the real strength in the movie is the editing. It's sharp, succinct and never drags. The musical interludes are paced perfectly in the story. The editing prowess & humor has been overlooked because it's become so familiar, but someone had to think up the triple Dr Scott-Janet-Brad-Rocky-Silence schtick. There is a lot of camp classic film references here, but it's never a cheap shot for laughs, more of an acknowledgment of movies we loved growing up. That seems to be the universal thematic chord the film carries.

Poitier's skin color apparently mattered to a lot of people in the 1960s. Max Brooks, the son of Anne Bancroft and Mel Brooks, once talked about how his mother received hate mail after she embraced Poitier at the 1964 Oscars. As a result, the younger Brooks said, Bancroft became obsessed with the idea that someone might harm young Max. She even accepted fewer film roles to be with her child as much as possible.

I'm sorry LHF. I didn't mean to insinuate you might look like the guy in the photos. I'm sure you probably look more like Sean Connery, like me.

Our eighth precode star is DAVID MANNERS He was featured in DRACULA (1931). He costarred alongside Barbara Stanwyck in THE MIRACLE WOMAN (1931): And he was the love interest in Katharine Hepburn's first film, A BILL OF DIVORCEMENT (1932):

#4 kind of looks like Frank Maxwell - he was in many TV shows but I remember him from General Hospital as a love interest for Nurse Jessica Brewer (who, in real life, was married to Jeffrey Hunter). I have no idea where the clip of #4 is from (could be a Hitchcock TV episode).

David Kellner (1670 - 1748) was a German-born composer and theorist of the Baroque era. (Remember that circle of fifths diagram from your music lessons? He did that.) He was a soldier for ten years in The Great Northern War before he settled in Stockholm where he worked as an organist. He was among the last virtuosos of the lute.

I've also heard enough about Mia over the years to say this. She is a good actress, but an individual who makes the Joan Crawford of Mommie Dearest look like Donna Reed. She's a terrifying person.
