Aside from Bekim Fehmiu in the lead it's not that bad, and as you point out the non-Fehmiu cast is impressive.

They could show the classic Thiller episode "Pigeons From Hell" (cited as one of the great moments in TV horror by no less a figure than Stephen King). And the notorious Alfred Hitchcock Presents episode "The Sorcerer's Apprentice", which was not even aired during the original AHP network run. Maybe even The Young Rebels episode where Brandon plays Nathan Hale.

That is, music about movies. And a question: can someone tell me anything about that piece of music heard at 1:25 and 1:42? The "diddle-liddle dum, diddle-liddle dum" associated with a tinkling piano, silent westerns, and damsels tied to railroad tracks. Title? Composer? Origin?

The original cartoon by Leonard Dove (published in the June 22, 1957 issue of The New Yorker) which would inspire a well-known feature film over a decade later:

Scott and McCrea apparently intended RTHC to be their adios, even if Joel later changed his mind. According to Jack Lemmon, during the shooting of Mister Roberts William Powell said, "This is the one to go out on".

I find myself coming here less and less. I absolutely despise the newest-post-first format.

WWII: Radio-man/gunner Walter Matthau served under squadron leader Jimmy Stewart in the Air Corps. Private Peter Ustinov served as Col. David Niven's batman (orderly). Mickey Rooney would sometimes pay another soldier to take his KP -- Charles Durning. Larry Storch served on a submarine and would often amuse his fellow sailors with imitations of the officers on board. Storch urged one of his crewmates to consider acting after the war -- Tony Curtis.

I haven't seen AMCA since I was a teenager, but I recall it as being very funny, especially the dramatic scenes involving Frank Sinatra Jr. I don't remember if Jr had any scenes with Peter Lawford -- that might have been awkward.

Why go to that effort? It's a pain to read

The Godfather is certainly better than the book, as is (as I've posted) the original Cape Fear.

Cape Fear (original!!!) The film was based on the novel The Executioners by John D. McDonald (highly regarded for his Travis McGee detective series). The book is not about two men facing off against one another. It's actually about the lawyer and his wife. The Max Cady villain character only appears once, very briefly. S P O I L E R S . . . And the book has virtually no action. It consists almost entirely of conversations between the lawyer and wife discussing what they should do. Even the big climax when Cady is killed happens "off screen", and the couple then goes to the scene to see what happened.

Why on Earth are you posting in Courier?

Dedicated to the notable figures of film history who deserve to be remembered as more than just names in a credits roll ===================== The plane crashes train shot from Flying Tigers: A biography of the brothers (which I have not read) has been published:

Carl Reiner, who's worked with some major talents -- Sid Caesar, Dick Van ****, Mel Brooks -- called Rooney the most talented person he ever worked with. FWIW I'm not offended by Rooney's Mr. Yunioshi. I just think it's a bad performance. *Whoa, Dick Van D-y-k-e is censored? How about if I just call him Dick V.D.?

It should be noted that The Shootist was not intended as a swan song. Wayne was still considering other projects until his final months -- one would have been a reteaming with Ron Howard.

J. Edgar meeting Shirley in itself is an interesting pic, but please try to keep doctored or photoshopped stuff out of the thread.

Lupino despised Bogart and tried to get him fired off High Sierra. That may have had some effect on their future teamings.

Dedicated to the notable figures of film history who deserve to be remembered as more than just names in a credits roll ===================== Lajos Bíró (1880-1948) A former journalist turned novelist, playwright (he wrote the play source of Five Graves to Cairo) and screenwriter, Biro left his native Hungary for Hollywood in 1924. In 1932 he went to England, where he became the scenario chief and right-hand man for Alexander Korda at London Films. Some of the classics he helped write:
