Well, what I don't understand is why she had that damn big pool. Isn't she supposed to be a bit paranoid about "melting, melting??"

I love Mortimer Brewster as Guest programmer. That is hilarious. I love Dana ANdrews as SOTM, HG Wells, all the B movie stuff all over like Godzilla and Ed Wood, and interesting tributes like harmonica and wheelchairs. ROYGBIV was so brilliant. Especially love the National Park theme. I just went out to Joshua Tree and could swear John Wayne was around every corner. I love that you and I both programmed Kurosawa's Shakespeare films--great minds think alike--but went the extra mile making it a whole month long tribute. I feel like THRONE OF BLOOD is the greatest movie version of MACBETH. I saw THE BAD SLEEP WELL for the first time recently and love the twist on Hamlet. I don't even mean the setting which is the business world of what at the time was modern day Japan (boy does that fit perfectly). I loved what he did with the story (gonna use the Shakespeare character names for clarity--spoilers ahead!). First he made Ophelia and Laertes the children of Claudius instead, making it more heartbreaking when Claudius is evil. Second he started the story with Prince Hamlet's wedding to Ophelia, which is a business merger rather than a political one, things that still go on today. It hurts so much more to have Ophelia wronged by her legal husband. But the best change of all that really drives the narrative is that Claudius and crew kill "King Hamlet" without knowing there even is a Prince Hamlet. Claudius and crew spend most of the movie trying to figure out who is messing with them and why, with them slowly figuring out that King Hamlet actually had a son, etc. It makes it more of a mystery on their part, with the audience finding out nearer the beginning that he's doing it. Then in another twist Hamlet is actually Horatio--the guy who marries Ophelia is Hamlet using Horatio's good name to hide his identity. So brilliant! I highly recommend this movie even though I ruined a lot of it.

Oh, I do love Louis Prima! Pennies from heaven and Just a gigalo are two of my favorites, and I had all but forgotten that he sang this version of That Old Black Magic! What a great rendition! I have to say, this song always reminds me of Jerry Lewis in The Nutty Professor singing that song as Buddy Love

Twist Around the Clock (1961) [They're all doing the twist at the end.] Next: Explosion

"Rationing," part of this afternoon's tribute to Marjorie Main, starring Wallace Beery. A comedy with a bit of an action sequence at the end, it was a fun satire of small town American life in 1944, with good fun made of the apparently endless government paperwork involved with goods rationing back on the home front to support the war effort. Most everyone dealt with it with some forbearance and a bit of carping, a bit like the social cooperation we're going through to get through today's pandemic. Donald Meek co-stars but it's mostly an underwritten role. Gloria Dickson, who I see died tragically from a home fire the next year, is a hoot as the new va-va-voom gal in town. The young couple temporarily split up by the war are Dorothy Morris, who had a long television career after mostly minor movie parts, and a guy named Tommy Batten, who seems to have retired from show business after this -- at least there's nothing much about him online except that he lived until 2005. Wallace is endearing as always, and Marjorie has line readings only she could deliver. All you need to verify this is her pronunciation of the number "72" at the end, about the number of government forms required to dissolve her and Wallace's business partnership.

By coincidence, I was just looking at what Wikipedia says about the casting of The Sunshine Boys, and it provides some indication that Neil Simon did have a role in the casting: "Initially, Bob Hope and Bing Crosby were proposed for the leads, but Simon was opposed to the idea, as he felt the roles required Jewish comedians. Several actors, including Groucho Marx and Phil Silvers were considered and the roles eventually were given to real-life vaudevillian veterans Red Skelton and Jack Benny. "Skelton declined after realizing his income was higher performing his stand-up comedy than what he was offered for the film; he was replaced by the younger Matthau.[2] Benny was forced to withdraw after being diagnosed with the pancreatic cancer that would soon claim him and recommended his friend and fellow real-life vaudevillian veteran Burns for the role, who had not been in a film since 1939. Burns' Academy Award-winning role revived his career and redefined his popular image as a remarkably active, older comedy star." So it looks like Simon did want actual vaudevillians who were Jewish to play Willy and Al. The separate Wikipedia article on Red Skelton also suggests that Simon was one of the casting decision makers: "Although Simon had planned to cast Jack Albertson, who played Willy on Broadway, in the same role for the film, Skelton's screen test impressed him enough to change his mind." I'd guess that once Skelton dropped out, Matthau was brought in because of his box-office appeal, not to mention his previously demonstrated success in Neil Simon roles (The Odd Couple (stage and film); Plaza Suite (film only)). I love The Sunshine Boys and think that Matthau and Burns both did outstanding work. If I didn't already know that Matthau was actually much younger than his character, I wouldn't have guessed it. I wouldn't have minded seeing the Broadway stars reprise their roles on film, however. Jack Albertson and Sam Levene were both very successful stage and screen actors, and Albertson was also a former vaudevillian. I'm not sure if Levene ever played in vaudeville, although his 50+ years on Broadway ("Dinner at Eight," "Guys and Dolls") and on film (After the Thin Man, The Killers) certainly show his range.

We'll just have to agree to disagree on this matter. First off, and IMHO, Welles really wasn't that "slender" to begin with, and did(to me) look heavier in his elder Kane scenes than at the beginning of the saga. And... That part I put in "bold" is a fairly blatant presumption. First, in claiming the character of Kane wasn't merely BASED on Hearst, but meant to be a CARICATURE of Hearst, all the way down to Hearst's appearance. Second, that there's NO variance in the appearance of ANY 25 year old. At 25, I was much thinner than my BROTHER was at 25, And I have a nephew who, at 25 was twice the size I was at that age. Thing is, I am now, at 70(this July) not so thin anymore, while that nephew is HALF the size he was then. You seem to be making too many assumptions based on what some people think SHOULD be rather than what IS. And really, you couldn't really have expected the elder Kane to look like the elder WELLES turned out to look like, right? I'll bet at 25, Welles had NO IDEA he'd balloon out the way he did. Hell. At 25 I had no idea I would either! Sepiatone

This is great Paul. Thanks for giving us an advance look at the cover of your upcoming book on Doris! Please make sure to let readers know when it is finally published and available for sale. I can imagine the courses you teach are not only a gateway for Doris' lesser known films but also for other classic musical comedies from the 1950s and 1960s.

Coquette (1929)

I hope they will mark the 100th anniversary of her birth next year. My book on her life will be coming out in April of 2022 with hundreds of heretofore unknown information and stories. For the past 9 years I've been teaching a Class at various colleges about Doris and her life and career. The response has even stunned me. Clearly she touches a nerve with people and the enrollment figures for the next two courses, at two different schools, seems to indicate that during these difficult and challenging times, there is even more need to escape from the harsh reality we are living in. The proposed cover is below, including front and back, the spine and the flaps that fold over. Subject to some editing during the next year.

I believe grammatically if the 'killer' was a person, you would say 'The killer who stalked New York', but as Eddie pointed out, in this case the killer was a thing (being the disease), so 'The killer that' is correct. (I wouldn't have thought about it if Eddie hadn't mentioned it.)
