  2. The one other child who ultimately reconciled with Woody wrote this in 2018. http://mosesfarrow.blogspot.com/2018/05/a-son-speaks-out-by-moses-farrow.html Plus him, you also have her former servants, all of whom, spoke about bizarre perversities, and you even had other Hollywood figures make comments against Mia, such as Katharine Hepburn.

  8. The first show included routine performing of the album Graceland. The 2nd show was much more recent and a dreadfully hot night ... with lots of booze! Freebies on the premises from my friend who worked there me and my other friend had bought tickets for the show but retreated from the venue because of the oppressive heat. The show again was uninspired, but it was so damned hot, to be fair, I don't blame PAUL.

  10. I remember when they celebrated his 100th Birthday. They showed a few episodes of his show and he did a restaurant skit and right before the commercials. He goes. Something like. Come on back. Because I have a reservation for you at the next table and of course there aren’t any commercials on here. Except for the advertisements after and before the movies. I wish he was still alive. He was so good and he’d make a great SOTM. I really hope it happens sometime. I love him. Of course I’ve seen a few of his movies on here from time to time. The last one was The Inspector General. Which I missed and was going to watch on the Watch TCM app. But I missed it on there too. So I was wondering. How often do they show his movies?

  11. I've really been liking Paul Simon lately. The first time I heard "Kodachrome" was in the movie Coneheads. I would rewind the tape just to hear the song again. This one, too. I like the chord changes.

  13. My favorite movie with them together is THE ODD COUPLE. My favorite with Lemmon by himself is THE APRIL FOOLS. My favorite with Matthau by himself is KOTCH.

  19. Yes, that would work. I remember the late River Phoenix played Indy as a youth either in a movie or on TV. It's hard to believe Phoenix ( if he was still alive) might be too old to play the part at 49 . Also, to be correct; Ford won't turn 79 until July. Anyway if they decide to make the film I sure hope they include Karen Allen. She's still pretty cute at age 69.

  20. There was an Indiana Jones marathon over the weekend. We watched some of it. I always liked THE LAST CRUSADE. I read somewhere that Sean Connery is only twelve years older than Harrison Ford, but played his father. Also, I've heard Ford is going to do one more Jones film at age 79. I like these movies and Ford. However, I'd have to say I think he's aged out of the role.

  21. Touche' My late great grandparent in laws had a great Adirondack camp right near Big Moose Lake where the setting of AN AMERICAN TRAGEDY was set. They were wealthy socialites from Cleveland that summer'd in upstate NY starting in the roaring twenties. The family still holds the property. My wife and I would go canoeing in BML because it was the next lake down, so remote and no motor boats were allowed. We would paddle into the South Bay, the site of the murder of Grace Brown. We survived. Then we would have an early dinner on the veranda of a huge Adirondack lodge which was a hotel/restaurant. It was a summer ritual. I have a 1st edition copy of AAT as well. As many of you know, A PLACE IN THE SUN was based on the novel as was THE TALENTED MR RIPLEY which I was going to use as additional clues if you had let me. I thought the American Tragedy reference might be too revealing. Next time, I'll be more careful. I'm working on my next one already.

  23. If I remember right, Still Crazy After All These Years was well received. I never paid much attention to Grammy awards. "Mother And Child Reunion" was on this album (also great):

  26. OK, I've been working on one and here goes. This couple was married for 57 years. He died on their final anniversary day. Their respective careers spanned the 20's to the 70's. Hers ended in the 50's, his, the 70's. While neither were ever nominated for Oscars, at least 3 of his were nominated for best picture. At least one of hers was too. Her most memorable role was in a 30's adaptation of one America's greatest 20th century novels. (I have a personal connection to this particular novel that I will reveal later). She appeared in one of Bette Davis' greatest movies. Another Hollywood icon (Katherine Hepburn) considered him one of Hollywood's greatly underappreciated leading men; up there with Bogart and Tracy. They appeared in at least 2 movies together. The first after which they wed. The marriage was the only one either ever had. See what you can do. I will give more hints, if necessary, tomorrow.

  27. While clearly one of Bogie's best performances, I didn't like the movie because my hero was "the bad guy".

  31. I had a friend who had difficulty watching Avalon because the dinner scene reminded him so much of his own family! I loved the Baltimore (or "Bolmer," as some of the locals call it) setting, which I recall as being authentic. It was unusual to see the very English Joan Plowright playing the matriarch of the family, though she was convincing. I still quote the line "You cut the toikey without me?" And yes, Washington and Cal both have lousy basketball teams this year!

  35. I checked out SINNER'S HOLIDAY a WARNER BROS VITAPHONE ALL-TALKING MOTION PICTURE! from 1930 on TCM ON DEMAND. [still THRILLED to PIECES that it's not OSCAR MONTH BTW...] It was worth watching for three things: 1. JAMES CAGNEY in his FILM DEBUT is SEXUAL ELECTRICITY and has, perhaps, one of his most challenging parts and scenes and he is outstanding; EVEN AT THE ONSET, IT'S CLEAR THAT IF CAGNEY IS IN THE PICTURE YOU WERE GONNA GET YER NICKEL'S WORTH!! 2. JOAN BLONDELL in an early role (maybe her first as well?)- she is a brunette but in all other respects, she is 100% the JOAN BLONDELL we all know and love- WORLD WEARY as ALL GET-OUT. JOAN BLONDELL, not here for your BS since 1930 BUT, most fascinating of all was the performance of 3. LUCILLE LAVERNE as CAGNEY'S MOTHER (and CHIEF DEFENDER)- she would later voice THE WICKED QUEEN/ THE WITCH in Disney’s SNOW WHITE AND THE SEVEN DWARFS, and her voice in SINNER'S HOLIDAY sounds MUCH like the one she uses in character as THE WITCH. You can also see that the Disney animators clearly used some of her features for THE WITCH. she is absolutely outstanding AND THE BEST THING IN THE FILM. THIS CHICK WAS HARDCORE MOST UNFORTUNATE THOUGH, IT IS TO NOTE THAT CAGNEY and BLONDELL are NOT the FILM'S LEADS, that's two UTTER DEADBEATS played by GRANT WITHERS and some broad whose name I'm not even gonna look up SHE STUNK SO BAD. They both MURDERED every minute they were on screen and it was a DAMN SHAME that it was a 60/40 split with them stealing most of the one hour screen time from JIMMY, JOAN and LUCILLE. Still an interesting film, a little slow for a Precode, but for those who also like CARNIVAL FILMS, this one will appeal to you.

  38. Roman Holiday (1953) TCM 8/10 A newspaperman (Gregory Peck) spends a day in Rome with a runaway princess (Audrey Hepburn) I haven't seen this in years. It takes a little while to get going, it seems the first half has a sedated Hepburn sleeping most of the time. Once she wakes up things really get entertaining. The Rome locations look great even in B&W. My favorite scene is at The Mouth Of Truth. Peck and Hepburn's goodbye scene is one of the most touching I ever saw in a film. Audrey's doe eyes are so expressive and Peck loosens up on his normally stoic persona. I also love how the ending avoids Hollywood cliche.
