Is the soundtrack edited separate from the visual frames...sound and picture combined after cutting?
Bingo!

The Best Years of Our Lives
-
The one they showed was Milestone video (does Kino do those?).
Original Score: Wolfgang Zeller; recorded 1999 - that could mean it was the original score from the premiere, or that Herr Zeller wrote an original score for them; don't know which.

I find them fascinating, but if I didn't.....
Ned Sparks and Lionel Stander, both in innumerable ("Oh, yes, I think they could be counted" - so said Mel Brooks on the Cavett interview!) movies starting in the '30s; with Stander continuing right up through "Hart to Hart." If anybody's mentioned them already, it didn't turn up in my forum search.

Hell's Angels? Sound came in after Hughes had filmed and he started over, plus three pilots died, but I don't think that's what you had in mind.

Then, of course, Vic Morrow's and two children's deaths during the filming of Twilight Zone: The Movie, but I don't know that it changed the story (or did it?). http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0086491/
But I just remembered the racing movie Robert O told us about, where the ending had to be changed (with double used, etc.) after the star was killed in a car wreck similar to what was actually in the film; I can't even remember for sure whether it was silent or sound, and my IMDB searches are letting me down! That's probably the one you're looking for....... Now, I guess somebody else will pick up the pieces from that!

Don't see a song title listed in the IMDB stuff, but Paul Dunlap is credited for the music:
http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0242406/
Maybe you can search for songs by Dunlap.

I, too, am pretty sure I saw it this past summer, think you're probably right about Pat O'Brien, and I'm also perplexed; most of my (burned) DVDs are not "to hand" at present, but it COULD be (strange as it seems) "The Cowboy from Brooklyn." http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0030019/
If it's not that, then it could also be (less likely, I think) "Oil for the Lamps of China." http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0026805/

"He produced all her pictures, until the talkies came in. She couldn't speak English, being from Texas. Her first talkie was a flop, so he dropped her."
I'm going to suggest one I haven't seen (yet) - The Aviator - someone talking about Howard Hughes (and....?).
-
"Saratoga"? I know Harlow's stand-in did a lot of it, but was any old footage used? And then there was Lugosi's last movie - was it "Plan Nine" or one after that?

re: Marta Eggerth
From August 2005 is a story about her new(est) CD:
I got there by doing a search for Eggerth + obituary, so she is apparently (and thankfully) still with us!

From the "General Issues" thread:
You can view these on the web at: http://www.tcm.com/rip
These should work on a Mac with the Flip4Mac plugin.

themanthatgotaway,
You already had posted, with a good heading - no need to keep asking within the same forum. PLEASE go to both places and remove your e-mail address (edit your message), and possibly your town since you put your whole name there; ask people to PM you (Private Message) and then check your PMs to see if anyone did. THERE you can discuss whatever with whomever.
If you don't know how to edit, you click on the symbol (on the right) beside "Reply" on your own message and then erase/change the proper parts of your posting.
Welcome to the boards. Just be careful before you tell too much about yourself.

themanthatgotaway,
It's not a good idea to place addresses OR e-mail addresses in the threads. Ask people to PM (Private-Message) you (and then be sure to check your PMs).
You might want to click on the symbol to the right of "Reply" beside your response and edit out your town and e-mail address........

As it is, I don't even have you anymore.
And guess what? I don't miss you.

For those who would like a chance to know all about them, there is this from the "General" thread - "Claymation":

It doesn't seem to be available on Amazon.
AMC (the late, lamented version thereof!) showed "all" the Tarzan movies back around 1997, so there will be plenty of people around who have tapes (too early for DVD, unfortunately, except dubbed).

Anybody know the status of this 1930 movie?
I'm almost certain TCM has shown it in the past year, but I'm so far behind with my database of things I taped/DVD'd I can't really check for it. (I don't THINK I got it off FoxMovies before they got "high-class" and started charging extra.) But I know I taped a Harry Richman movie years ago (NOT a particularly enlivening experience!), and I'm almost equally certain I've gotten it on DVD in the past two years. I love old musicals, and dumb movies, and movies so bad they make me howl. This one mostly makes me yawn....... Except to see him in action - he did have some charisma as long as he was in front of his band, but ONLY then!
-
It's a very good movie; looks like it should be available in VHS (but not DVD yet).
Disney released it on laserdisc, as well.

Does anyone know where I can get sheet music for the Under the Stars number in Song of the Thin Man for the Clarinet?
From IMDB, this information: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0039853/soundtrack
"You're Not So Easy to Forget" (1947)
Music by Ben Oakland
Lyrics by Herb Magidson
Played during the opening credits, as background music and at the end
Played by a band on the S.S. Fortune and sung by Gloria Grahame
Played on clarinet by Don Taylor often
Reprised by Gloria Grahame at the ship reopening and on a record

I'm new to the TMC site! Welcome, but Ouch! from us TCM'ers......
If any one of you have ever heard of a film named (or something close to it) "CHIVALRY IN BLOOM" would you let me know? I am trying to find it for the man I love...
Nothing like that in the IMDB site, but there IS "Love in Bloom," which is probably quite a different movie (Burns and Allen, et al).
-
it's Harry von Tilzer's "Under the Anheuser Bush",
I know that's a song (seen the sheet music, ditto, records), but she and Margaret sing "Under the Bamboo Tree," by Bob Cole, J. Rosamund Johnson and James W. Johnson (yes, the "God's Trombones" writer!). Both songs ("Goodbye..." and "Under...") are on one of the best records ever made - of this sort - Joan Morris and William Bolcom, "After the Ball: A Treasury of Turn-of-the-Century Popular Songs," on Nonesuch. It was the sequel to the equally felicitous (oh, that word!) "Vaudeville." If you don't have them, and you love this kind of music, find them (and almost anything else Joan sings). Quickly!

In Swing Fever today, Harry James and Tommy Dorsey are playing along (but also given lines, etc.) in the orchestra Kay Kyser is conducting in an early scene.
