  3. i'M SORRY. I'm going to need to lay down and take a 45 minute long nap to fully digest the astounding, epic-eyeroll-inducing, jaw-dropping, GOLD-PLATED GALL of someone in a ****ING CULT THAT USES SLAVE LABOR AND TEARS FAMILIES APART AND BANKRUPTS AND BLACKMAILS, PERSECUTES, ABUSES, IMPRISONS AND LITERALLY DESTROYS PEOPLE taking issue with a bunch of reporters who hand out statues once a year because they're too WHITE. WOW TOM, YOU ARE AN AMERICAN HERO, AND I NANCY PELOSI CLAP AT YOUR BRAVERY.

  4. Wow I'm surprised at the responses here. I love Richard Dreyfuss, like every performance of his I've seen & think he's a fabulous actor, although I absolutely see how he's overacting can put off people. I've known people like Dreyfus-crazy loons in real life-but they translate great from the stage. The Goodbye Girl is one of my favorite movies and although it already has a lot going for it, Dreyfuss' stagey-ness drama queen intensity really helped it in a way no one else would have. Plus, he's cute. Same for most of his roles, he seems to add elements to a story no one else would have.

  8. Now that they'll be receiving boxes of unwanted little globes maybe they can repurpose them as bookends or doorstops or paperweights. Maybe a new cottage industry.

  9. What a man, what a career, what a life. First fell in love with him when he was on St. Elsewhere and enjoyed all of his film performances. Even more . . . he was such a great interview -- the stories he could tell . . .

  14. As joint Stars of the Month? Well Constance was SOTM in November 2012 and since Joan has a better film legacy, I would like to see Joan as SOTM all by herself. In addition if there was a joint one, the odds would be higher TCM would just show the Joan films they already show instead of some of the Fox films they rarely or never show.

  24. Did anyone else see the documentary on Mike Nichols and Elaine May? It had been shown on the American Masters series on PBS. The attempt to locate Nichols and May within the context of the 1950s was superficial, to say the least. Several of their best-known skits are shown. Though I can appreciate their talent and their work, and their influence on other comics is obvious, I didn't particularly enjoy the sketches or laugh much.

  25. He tried for years to get a Christmas movie called Fruitcake made. He had the script ready but had trouble with financing, of course. Too bad, because in both P*ecker and A Dirty Shame he was still on his game, in my opinion. Both are great examples of how he was able to mix name actors with exotic misfits he found God knows where. **** had Mary Kay Place, Lili Taylor, Edmund Furlong, Martha Plimpton and Bess Armstrong, but ****'s skateboarding, shoplifting friend and his grandmother with a "talking" statue of Mary just about stole the movie. Tracey Ullman fit seamlessly into Waters World in A Dirty Shame, along with Selma Blair, Johnny Knoxville and Chris Isaak, but a supporting actress playing the local know-it-all Big Ethel owned every scene she was in. But A Dirty Shame flopped, which John says is why his career has gone south. (You're only as good as your last....blah blah blah.) I miss him too.

  26. We both liked The Whistle at Eaton Falls. I'd give it a 7/10. It's so unusual for Hollywood in the early 50s to do a serious movie about labor issues. Not the movie one would expect from Robert Siodmak. Location shooting in New Hampshire. It's nice to see Lloyd Bridges in a lead role, playing a union rep who suddenly becomes the factory boss. Anne Francis looks really young as the girlfriend of Carleton Carpenter. Ernest Borgnine has a bigger role than his billing, and this is the only movie where you get to see him square dance! Dorothy Gish does a fine job as the wife of the factory owner, and it's too bad she didn't have more screen roles at this time.

  27. It's a documentary about his career, along the same lines as his memoir. Quite enjoyable, I thought. Tab talks about some of his boyfriends, including Ronnie Robertson and Tony Perkins. My husband and I saw a performance where Tab was present. There were so many gay men over 60 in line that we thought we were in Palm Springs.

  28. There's still a big blank space for primetime June 11. TCM Underground looks like a Sweeney Todd theme. The Undertaker and His Pals (Warrene Ott, James Westmoreland) (Gemini Film Distributors, 1972) Motel Hell (Rory Calhoun, Paul Linke) (United Artists, 1980) Edit: someone with a twisted sense of humor in the TCM programming department has decided to follow up these movies with a short titled Delicious Dishes.

  35. Here are a couple of guesses based on the clues given. #1 is, I think, Tom Taylor and Arlene McQuade as Sammy and Rosalie Goldberg on "The Goldbergs". Gertrude Berg played their mother, Molly Goldberg. #5 may be Karen Greene and Gail Stone as Mary and Jenny Hammond on "The Eve Arden Show". Eve Arden played their mother, Liza Hammond. Gail Stone, the brunette, was the younger half-sister of Rosemary Clooney and Nick Clooney.

  39. Kinks-Size -Apr 1965* A pretty good one from the group. It begins with the rip roaring #7 hit "All Day And All Of The Night" , it's pretty much an imitation of the "You Really Got Me" style but it's still great, equal to it and I at times I like it a bit more. "Long Tall Sally" is a bit more subdued than Little Richard's original and not as good as that one or the Beatles great cover of it. One of their better cover songs is "Louie Louie" , Ray's early style of singing seems to be based on the Kingsmen's lead singer. "I've Got That Feeling" is a very good Ray original, one of his best early melodic songs. "I Gotta Move" is a good rocker, nice guitar riff. Side 2 starts with "Set Me Free" a nice ballad about wanting to be set free from a cheating lover. "You Still Want Me" is OK, nice middle eight. "You Do Something To Me" steals the title and line "that nobody else can do" from Cole Porter. "Things Are Getting Better" is a Ray original doing a Chuck Berry imitation. "I Gotta Go Now" is OK, sounds like filler. "Ev'rybody's Gonna Be Happy" is pretty good handclapping song which ends the record. *The album I own is the Rhino Records 1988 reissue, which has a different track list than the original 1965 release. The Rhino version is the one I am reviewing.

  41. Was definitely there for the "dream" season. They certainly kept the shower scene quiet as the crew didn't know and producer Leonard Katzman did a great job with the secret, which is hard to do in this business. The one rumbling was with certain cast member(s) whose story lines were inconsequential.

  42. I watched it last night. It was fine, Dreyfus was fine but I didn’t buy them as a couple. The little girl was the best part. I’m sure I have seen most of it before, but I don’t think I ever sat thru it from beginning to end. It does surprise me he won an Oscar for it.

  43. 1991 and I’ve also seen … I Can No Longer Hear the Guitar (1991) Philippe Garrel, France This is a case where I found everything that was written about the film quite interesting but then subsequently not the film itself. Perhaps it was because I wasn’t drawn to a single character. Night and Day (1991) Chantal Akerman, France Akerman fans may like this but I don’t count myself in their number. This is an odd love triangle story. I stayed through to the end as I was curious to see how it would turn out but I can’t say the wait was worth it.
