  1. I also feel that staginess can be appropriate. (it worked in LONG DAY'S JOURNEY INTO NIGHT, and Hepburn was magnificent there) There are other examples, of course, but I just had a giant lasagna dinner this evening and it's gone to my brain.

  2. Thanks to you I DID see the beginning of MANHUNT when it was on last time.

     

    You've been great in giving me advance times for SUNDAY DINNER FOR A SOLDIER but unfortunately my timing has been off for it. I did see it years ago but would really love to catch it again.

     

    Burt's good in THE RAINMAKER. Kate's performance takes some getting used to even though she's believable playing spinsters as she's done many times. The entire production is very stagy, but I think overall it works. It's going to be on TCM soon and I'm looking forward to re-accessing it.

  3. I wasn't concerned about the kids watching it but just the TCM Board "standards" -- wasn't quite sure about what could or couldn't be posted along those lines. I'm not really Bette Davis in THE LETTER, lol; i.e., knitting in the morning and carrying on in the evening.

     

    Actually, "quaint" is a word that I usually reserve for descriptions of interior design, not people.

    (I like "picturesque" too)

  4. "Some qwick womancing....and then a shower....." I love her too, in anything she did.

     

    I'm not exactly full-grown either, but those lyrics are pretty adult, so I thought to be on the safe side I'd offer a "warning"

     

    How quaint of me I know, especially in this raw day and age when the young folks can see and hear just about anything....

  5. Stream of consciousness; it's late and THE MANCHURIAN CANDIDATE is playing behind me.

    MY DARLING YELLOW RIBBON. FORT CLEMENTINE. I'm losing it. Frank, you are the kindest, bravest, warmest, most wonderful human being I have ever known. Transmission is now open from Venus; I'm winking with the eye in the middle of my forehead now. You may be a HARVEY and CROSSING DELANCEY virgin, but you've seen more Fritz Lang than a lot of people I think. I'm an OUT OF THE PAST virgin, and I'm catching up on Pappy thanks to the Encore Western channel

     

    I think I'll make myself a peanut butter and bacon sandwich on sourdough bread now.

     

    I realize this has been a strange post.

  6. .....his pronounced limp in sharp contrast to his otherwise healthy good looks, and she detected the merest wisp of an accent that sounded vaguely Scandinavian, but had undertones of a country she knew she never heard of before.

  7. Great info, cc. I always wondered if Tony actually played the Abominable Snowman; apparently he didn't.

     

    You are so right about Randall giving this heart; Sellers might have been technically perfect, but the soul of the story would have been absent..

     

    I find it hard to believe that Tony didn't like the film and wouldn't speak about it.
