Something about the shape of these two actor's faces and their expressions always remind me of that Wascally Wabbit, lol.

Vaguely recall THE SAXON CHARM but get it mixed up with RAGE IN HEAVEN, where Bob plays I think a similar type of character.
-
I've also always noted a strong resemblance between Bugs and Zachary Scott.

And Lloyd Nolan LOOKS like Bugs Bunny.
(I've always thought so)

Absolutely, to the first sentence, Bronxie! Those two would also be my favorites of Bob's, and along with They Were Expendable.
(...and never thought about your second sentence before, but darn if you're not right!)
Haven't seen TWE in a long time and don't even remember the caliber of performances from anyone in the cast. Will have to check it out again and pay more attention!
Even in NIGHT MUST FALL I detect a slight Bugs undertone, lol.

Thanks, Sans!

I enjoy Robert Montgomery in two films: NIGHT MUST FALL and HERE COMES MR. JORDAN.
But his voice always sounds like Bugs Bunny.

Charles Coburn is great in anything he's in--drama, comedy, he can do it all.
I love Coburn in The Devil and Mrs. Jones.
That's another good one.
GENTLEMEN PREFER BLONDES, too. (Howard Hawks also can do it all -- any genre!) So funny especially when Marilyn gets stuck in the porthole and Coburn strolls by. I'm chuckling just thinking about it, lol.

That scene over and over is why I watch that movie. Love it.
Has to be Frank Morgan's best film performance imo. Some people seem to think all he ever did was THE WIZARD OF OZ.

When I first saw Charles Coburn in KINGS ROW I was chilled to the bone by his performance. Could never watch him afterwards in comedies (and he's wonderful in THE MORE THE MERRIER) because all that came to mind was the sadistic Dr. Gordon. (shudder!) That's the mark of a great actor!

Really?
it is the forgotten stepchild of my 6dvd HORROR collection w/ DEVIL DOLL, MARK OF THE VAMPIRE, MASK OF FU MANCHU, DR X and another one I can’t recall.
I watched everyone of those annually, but I never watch it.
EDIT- MAD LOVE. RememberedI watched BEAT THE DEVIL for the first time and was freaked out by Bogart's face. It was heavily made up and uncomfortably reminded me of his character in THE RETURN OF DR. X. I love when he plays nut jobs -- THE TWO MRS. CARROLLS, CONFLICT, IN A LONELY PLACE, THE CAINE MUTINY. All the ones you mention are fun, very enjoyable, except for MARK OF THE VAMPIRE. Poor Bela. Carroll Borland is interesting but the whole production is just too, oh I don't know, M.G.M.-ish or something, lol.

Good one! You seem like my kind of person, especially if you like Valentino and Cagney. 😊
Thank you! I think we're kindred spirits!

No problem! I know how frustrating that can be. Happens to me sometimes.
Happens to me more than I'd care to admit, lol

THE SIGN OF THE RAM is deliciously arch and campy! I love it!

It seems like the best ending would have been if they'd killed each other; or if there was some type of ending where it's uncertain whether Johnny and Gilda will make it.
Or "shut up and deal"

She also meets Tennessee Ernie Ford, but he isn't playing himself... he's playing Lucy's mother's friend's college roommate's cousin's middle boy, Ernie. But he sings in his own voice in a song in "Tennessee Ernie Hangs On."
LOL

I know what you mean about that ending in GILDA. "Let's go home" That's it? I don't think such a, to put it mildly, complicated relationship would have been resolved so quickly.

Perverse love (other than VERTIGO) = GILDA
