More on the film itself. Here are some comparisons image-wise. The Cinerama screen used three 35mm films. Also of note, the original IMAX (15/70) was 10x the surface area of a 35mm film, or about 3x the surface area of 5/70 (70mm - Todd AO, Super Panavsion 70, etc) Comparative film formats (includes 35mm, Cinerama, IMAX) The soundtrack for the 15/70 IMAX played back on a separate machine, a 6-channel analog system which used regular 35mm optical film. Disney World theme parks also used optical film as a medium for repetitive sound loops (as it was more robust than magnetic tape) on their rides, shows, and around the park, prior to arrival of long-form digital storage media in the 1980s/90s. The IMAX projectors went straight from 35mm optical audio to compact disc. The 35mm audio decks remained in use for their older films. These didn't use time code for audio alignment like digital media, but rather operated on electronically synchronized motors - similar to the mechanical synchronization of the Vitaphone system but with some updates... In simpler comparative form: 15/70, 5/70, and standard 35mm: And finally what an original-style 15/70 IMAX screen looks like. Much attention has been given to side-to-side peripheral vision with the various widescreen formats. IMAX 15/70 does that but also immerses the audience in top-to-bottom action.

They certainly don't seem to get along very well. Hey, Joan, why don't you dump that guy and come to me. Never mind that he has everything and I have nothing. We can work it out.

Thelma Ritter's last film was in the 60s-- WHAT'S SO BAD ABOUT FEELING GOOD? (1968). Also Doris Day's movie swan song occurred in '68 with the comedy WITH SIX YOU GET EGG ROLL.

Torrid Zone is my favorite Ann Sheridan film. She really shines here and almost steals the film from Cagney. Clearly she is his equal. There are so many great wise cracking lines that she delivers in a style that was her own. One low-key crack she makes is when the rebel and her are in jail and the repel is about to be placed before a firing squad. He gives Ann his ring and she says: afraid its going to melt? Torrid Zone is an odd mix of adventure, romance and comedy. I say odd because many people are killed, some in rather brutal ways (e.g. George Reeves, Mr. superman, playing a rebel spy), but it is all in fun. The film is a great example of the Warner Bros. studio system and the use of all the fine talent WB had under contract at the time (1940).

You can read the article here: https://www.thrillist.com/entertainment/nation/best-movie-quotes. But I would think the answer is clear and that most of these will not last the test of time. Personally there seems to be a clear decline in the quality of scripts (I'm thinking you could get dozens of better quotes from The Usual Suspects.) Post here your own choices.

From April 17-20, 1921, the Poli ran The Parish Priest, starring William Desmond as Reverend John Whalen. The film was released in February of 1920 at six reels. The Library of Congress holds a complete copy. Unfortunately, I could find very little information on this film. Plot: John Whalen is ordained into the priesthood. His mother’s dying wish is that Edward Welsh, a young doctor, marries his long-time sweetheart. Whalen sets out to make the wish come true, and also helps the townspeople with their problems. The stills below show Desmond as the priest: The film was based upon a long-running stage play of the same name. Exhibitor’s Herald called the film “a simple, human story of the problems of thoroughly human small town folk, blending nicely the elements of popular appeal.”

It's not important how many people I've killed. What's important is how I get along with the people who are still alive. I am a leaf on the wind - watch how I soar. Ding-ding-ding! Laaaaadies and gentlemen, welcome to the fight of the century! In one corner is a beautiful young girl, and in the other, unhappiness! Sometimes I believe in as many as six impossible things before breakfast. But you have heard of me. Feels strange to be going home, doesn't it? Isn't the view beautiful? It takes my breath away. Well, it would if I had any. Twenty-three nineteen! We have a Twenty-three nineteen! This is America. Eighty-five percent of what I fix is bullet holes. I've had so many names. Old names that only the wind and the trees can pronounce. I am the mountain, the forest and the earth. I am... I am a faun. Your most humble servant, Your Highness. We're identical twins and exact opposites. No one will ever forget that night and what it meant for this country. But I will never forget the man and what he meant to me. I don't have delusions of grandeur, I have an actual recipe for grandeur. I swear on my dead relatives - and even on the ones who are not feeling too good - I am your man forever! I don't want you to take this the wrong way, but I hate you. Let's just assume for the moment that everyone in here doesn't like me! Every time we get a chance to get ahead they move the finish line. Come on, Steve. We've got a diem to carpe! Aren't you going to search me? I could have anything down my trousers. Those chickens are up to something. Which would be worse - to live as a monster, or to die as a good man? That's no blizzard. That's my sister. These are your last words, so make them a prayer. These are kittens! Any relation to persons living or dead is completely coincidental. I've never done this before. Hold still, or it'll get messy. We have stubbornness issues. Airplanes are beautiful, cursed dreams, waiting for the sky to swallow them up. I don't want to survive. I want to live. I'm having lots and lots of puberty. I'm a meowsy dancer anyway. Just because everybody hates it doesn't mean it's not good. May all your bacon burn. Tonight's supper will be baked beans. Musical program to follow. I've been turned into a cow. Can I go home? I don't want your help, I want you safe. He's not drunk, Mom, he's just eccentric. Memory is the scribe of the soul.

I agree. This is a wonderful film and I never miss it. Wise-cracking Ann and Jimmy, fast-talking Pat O'Brien, bit*** Helen Vinson and George Tobias stealing scenes right and left. A perfect WB movie.

Swithin, we'd both better duck, but I agree with you on all three. Gosh, I liked The Piano and Chocolat, too. I'd better get my negative energy going! Oh, I can only faintly remember Dame Judi in Chocolat. That was Juliette Binoche's film all the way. I could even tolerate Johnny Depp in Chocolat. What's happened to me? As Lorna would say, "THIS!!!!!!!!!"

Ann Sheridan was a born comedienne without a doubt. She had the best timing and delivery with a great script and her fast delivery. She was way up to par along side her peers, Rosalind Russell, Claudette Colbert, Carole Lombard and Myrna Loy and many others who made a lot of great comedies in the 1940's. Some of her best wisecracks were from movies like Angels With Dirty Faces when James Cagney reaches out his hand to Ann Sheridan and says how do you how do you say she slaps his face and [ulls his hat down and runs towards the door and says I waited 15 years to do that. It wasn't much of a wisecrack but it was such a great scene They really both had such chmeistry together a shame they didn't make more films together. They could have gave Spencer Tracy and Katharine Hepburn a run for thier money if Warner Brothers who made some of the best movies ever was so cheap for getting great scripts for their stars. The Angels Wash Thier Faces when Eduardo Cianneli says to Ann Sheridan one day I will find out why you don't like me she quickly replies I can tell your right now, Torrid Zone when Helen Visnon says to James Cagney that he stood down to her level and Ann Sheridan replies that's still 3 floors above you. They Drive By Night when Roscoe Karns says to Ann Sheridan not too much gravy on hiis mashed potatoes she replies any special design you want on the plate? Juke Girl when Richard Whorf says to Ann Sheridan after a big fight one day you will run into me she says so blantly I hope I', in a truck Good Sam when Gary Cooper says to Ann Sheridan that a friend who owes him money passed away he says name one bad thing about the man she says so hysterically his health.

I hate him SO much...it...it...it th-the flames... Flames. On the siiiide of my face. Heaving. Heaving breaths....

Would hate to play a game of "I spy" with that thing! Sepiatone

CASINO ROYALE (1967) I think he died a few times in his movies. He liked to show up later as a ghost...usually for comic relief. Next: Myrna Loy

No, I had posted something and then reconsidered. Usually one puts a simple dot (period) to signify that but for some reason it was a semi-colon which I admit could mean something sinister to an inquiring mind. No fear. I assure you that my change of mind was not inimical to you. Thanks.

I don't think Dodgson would have liked her...much.

@ everyone: I'm afraid to tell you all this, but I just watched Citizen Kane for the very first time last night, and I did not love it... There were certainly moments I enjoyed, but I think I hyped it up too much in my own brain, so when I finally watched it, I was underwhelmed. This film is certainly not without merit, though. I can see how it is widely regarded as one of the best films of all time.

PORTRAIT IN BLACK (1960) Next: Myrna Loy, Shirley Temple and Cary Grant

I also remember distinctly her being dressed as COUNT CHOCULA.

We all loved her. (Oh, how I envied that lucky Dick Powell!!!).

Myra Breckenridge?

Over the years, Ava Gardner had been in a few of my dreams. (...however, I have a feeling that if I'd go into any more detail about those dreams, the moderators around here might not like it, and so I won't)
