  1. https://www.kron4.com/news/national/patricica-hitchcock-dead-at-93/ Alfred Hitchcock's only child, Patricia, has passed away at 93. She also appeared in many of her father's films. I loved her in Strangers on a Train. She was very funny and actually had a pretty pivotal role in the plot of the film.

  7. don't ever let anyone say no one ever learns anything from these messageboards... Today, for example, I found out that VINCENT PRICE cooked fish in a dishwasher on THE TONIGHT SHOW. And I think I'm a better person for this knowledge....

  8. I dunno if you got one of them FANCY SCHMANCY "DIGITAL TVS" but if you do , you can download the channel TUBI TV, which is completely free (there are ads, but they are nowhere NEAR as invasive as they are on some other streaming networks.) TUBI is HORROR DOC CENTRAL, they have a TROVE. They are also DARK SHADOWS CENTRAL, they not only have the DAN CURTIS DOCUMENTARY but also EVERY EPISODE OF DARK SHADOWS (with the exception of one that was lost.) Also, they have the compilations THE HAUNTING OF COLINWOOD and THE CURSE OF THE VAMPIRE, which are 3 hour "movies" comprised of edited scenes from the show.

  9. Haven't watched much lately. I had a son born on Sunday still inside the sac (water never broke) and swallowed fluid at the moment of birth and he's been in the ICU since on a machine to remove the fluid. Been a shaky few days but he's now starting to do better and i'm home now with my 3 year old while mama is with the baba. Know this isn't the thread for it but i searched the non-film thread and only see political BS. Know i'm new here, but during covid i guess i'm looking for release wherever i can. Life is a blessing. Cheers.

  13. Back to I JUST WATCHED. Did anyone catch Fun With Dick and Jane last night? What a LAME movie. I saw this film when it came out and remember enjoying it, but either my taste has changed or the film hasn't aged well. Very unfunny comedy. I laughed maybe twice. A good idea, but a mediocre script. Came off as no better than a made for tv movie (with stars) This was sort of Jane's comeback movie after being grey listed so I guess she couldnt be choosy. Unlikeable characters and mostly a series of black out skits in search of a plot. And it was a HIT and REMADE! C- (I did laugh a few times)

  18. You got it, Peebs! It is in Die Another Day (2002) that Bond (Pierce Brosnan) tells Jinx Johnson (Halle Barry) that he's an ornithologist, then follows some suggestive "bird banter" between the two of them. NoShear and Peebs split the glory on this one, so either of you is next at the helm. (I do so enjoy mixing metaphors!) Thanks, you two.

  24. Lorna, thanks for posting that video of Grayson Hall screaming. So wonderful. Though I might not have struggled too much if Joel Crothers had his arms around me. Sam Hall and Gordon Russell were the main writers for Dark Shadows and later were headwriters for One Life to Live. They usually had some good stories going.

  28. Thanks, Peebs. That was a nice one. How did Fleming choose 007's name, and in which film is there a reference to this?

  29. It's VERY slow, but I think it's worth it. There's the camp factor too. At least the first couple of seasons (through Quentin).

  30. I like soft boiled, but I generally forget about the eggs and how long they've been boiling, so they end up hard boiled.

  37. Not part of the celebration, but a great one is British Agent (1934), in which Miss Kay--looking fabulous--plays, wait for it, Lenin's secretary. No, really, it's great. At the beginning of the movie, a gala full of aristocrats is strafed with machine gun fire.

  38. I believe I have the facts.: Forty acres and a mule is part of Special Field Orders No. 15, a wartime order proclaimed by Union General William Tecumseh Sherman on January 16, 1865, during the American Civil War, to allot land to some freed families, in plots of land no larger than 40 acres (16 ha). Sherman later ordered the army to lend mules for the agrarian reform effort. Former slaves of the early Reconstruction era were illiterate because their education was discouraged by their owners. In some places it was even against the law to teach slaves to read and write. Next thing you know they'll want to vote.

  39. "Good morning, Mr. Graves. Your mission, should you decide to accept, is to take over the lead role of this televsion series from actor Steven Hill after season number one. As you might know, his character's name as leader of the IMF was 'Dan Briggs', but yours will be 'Jim Phelps'. This recording will self-destruct in five seconds." (...now ain't it clever how I did this one?!)

  40. In all honesty, if you’re coming to DARK SHADOWS As someone who did not see it in its original run, you will probably be extremely disappointed. It’s very hard to explain to somebody nowadays just what the appeal of soap operas was back in the day before the Internet and video games and streaming television. If you were to watch any of the episodes of the 1967 to 71 series, there is a strong chance you would be disappointed, Not because it’s bad, just because it’s very old-fashioned and somewhat primitive. EDIT: Although there are a couple of three hour long “movies” compiled of edited parts of numerous episodes. DARK SHADOWS: CURSE OF THE VAMPIRE and THE HAUNTING OF COLLINWOOD Are both available on Tubi. The second of those two is actually a pretty intriguing retelling of “the turning of the screw.” At the risk of offending many, many posters here, to a DARK SHADOWS VIRGIN, I would recommend the 1990 revival series which was done on NBC in prime time (Also called DARK SHADOWS.) (Just whatever you do, please don’t see the piece of **** movie Tim Burton did a few years back.)

  41. I've actually tried that and it really does work. It takes a long time however to consume. On your hands and knees, sticking your head in the dishwasher, licking the gratings and sidewalls, sucking the egg out of crevices. I mean, really, it's a pain in the neck. The worst part is spitting out the eggshells.

  43. Don't know if you're joking but a soft-boiled egg is just a lightly cooked hard-boiled-egg: i.e. the yoke is just "soft" (and while the white part must still be cooked it shouldn't be too "solid" or rubbery). The major different is in the cooking time; to ensure soft-boiled timing is essential. E.g. one puts the eggs into already boiling water (similar concept to pre-heating an oven). Boil for 4 - 7 minutes (depending on how "soft" one wants the yoke). Remove and put into an ice-bath for a few minutes (this stops the cooking and makes it a lot easier to remove the shell).

  44. I'm a super-fan of Kay Francis' and so enjoyed "Kay Day." She is equally effective in light comedy and high melodrama. Lights up the screen every time she appears. I had no idea who she was until I started watching TCM. What a revelation. Love all of her films and I also love that even when Warner Brothers threw her into a lot of sub-standard fare (to get her to quit) she laughed and said: "As long as they pay my salary, I'll do 'whatever.'" She was a smart lady and didn't let WB force her out. Like Myrna Loy, she did a ton of volunteer work during WWII and later handled retirement gracefully. A class act and I never tire of seeing her films.
