I saw a photo of Bela as Jesus at Forrest J Ackerman's house in the late 1970's. I can't recall the name of the production.
-
I should also tell everyone that I remember in an old Famous Monsters of Filmland magazine, editor Forry Ackerman printed a rare 1933 publicity sheet where actors listed personal information, and Lugosi filled his out. Under favorite actors, he whimsically put "Mickey Mouse".

Great Menzies art direction. Wells's script is preachy and moralistic but certainly thought-provoking. Ralph Richardson was the only actor who seemed to have any life in him! Cedric Hardwicke struck a lot of Shakespearean poses. I especially liked the 1940 London Christmas set, and the photo of the airplane in Massey's apartment. Cabal keeps talking about a new world order that struck me as rather fascistic. Yet wasn't Wells a socialist?
Definitely a must-see.

I always wished I was Penny. And I loved her ponytail. I wanted to live on that ranch. But she was always getting into danger, and had to be constantly rescued.

I don't know specifically about Top Cat, but I think he did a lot of voiceovers. I do remember he was "Sparrow" in THE MAN WITH THE GOLDEN ARM; he had a fairly good part and had some scenes with Frank Sinatra. And he was in the infamous DONDI, where he played Pee-Wee.
That's about all I know of him.

I'd pick Suzy Parker, numero 12 -- she was always gorgeous to me. (and not that bad an actress; I always liked her in THE BEST OF EVERYTHING)
And if Rod thought the Brave New World was already under way in the early 60's, he should see today.
I think they showed "Little Girl Lost" already -- but check the schedule link that Fred provided.

Yep.
And I always thought it sounded like Nancy Kelly's voice for the bandaged Janet...

Fred, thanks, that does answer it.

I remember as a child in the Bronx my mother telling me that Arnold Stang, the turtle-like comic actor, was related to the Schwartz's, who lived in our building and who we were close to.
I called up Mom last week and asked her about this.
Me: "Mom, remember you told me Arnold Stang was a cousin or something to Ed and Rhoda Schwartz?"
Mom: "Who?"
Me: "Arnold Stang, you know, that skinny funny looking actor who looked like a turtle to me."
Mom: "I never told you that. Why would I?"
Me: "Why would I remember something so unusual? Why would I say Arnold Stang and not someone more glamorous, like say Tyrone Power or Robert Taylor?"
Mom: "You phoned me up to tell me about Arnold Stang? Come on, this is stupid. I have to go now and color my hair."
Me: "Could you think about it and get back to me sometime?"
Mom: "If it'll make you feel better, yes."

I've heard throughout the years this was supposed to be the worst child performance in screen history.
-
Me, too.
And, to change moods, "The Hitchhiker" (playing now) always unnerves me.
But I wonder, shouldn't Bing Crosby have played him?
"Going.....MY way?"

I always lose it when the father tells his son to look ahead, not back.

And Sky King with Mitch the sheriff.

Your're right, metsfan, and once again I'm indebted to you.
Unfortunately, Monday the 7th and Tuesday the 8th I've got to be at work at 8 a.m.

"The Mirror" is hilarious.
Don't miss it!!.

I'll try to ask without invoking a Spoiler for those who haven't seen this:
If Ernest Truex knows the outcome of his relationship with Steve Cochran, in the What You Need episode, why does he give him the scissors to extricate himself from the scarf?

Chelsea, that's fascinating info and good insight.

LOL -- put an orange in his hand and you couldn't tell the difference.

"This isn't what I wanted for you, Michael, to sleep all day and bite necks at night".
Michael: "We'll get there, Pop, we'll get there...."

sandy, on behalf of my mother and me, LOVE YOUR POST, lol. These two women should get together as they definitely are cut from the same mold. When mom asked me what TBL was about, I told her truthfully that it's very deep but that the Coen Bros. style is not for her. She asked if it had a lot of swearing. I told her it made RAGING BULL sound like MARY POPPINS. Then she didn't ask anything more about it.
I want to get a Lebowski t-shirt too, with "The Dude Abides"!
I love all the scenes at the bowling alley with Bridges, Goodman, and Buscemi.
And Walter's eulogy.

Looking "forward" to it..

I'll bet the Spanish remake of BLOOD AND SAND isn't too swell.
I'm only going by the fact that Sharon Stone is in it.
