I like your choice of Melvyn Douglas!

It's been several years since I've seen The Last Sunset, Seconds (perhaps Rock's best performance), and Pretty Maids All in a Row. I hope to revisit these in June!!

Yes, Franchot Tone is great in this film. I prefer his performance in The Lives of a Bengal Lancer to his Oscar-nominated performance in Mutiny on the Bounty.

I like your pick of Thomas Mitchell. I thought he was included on my list... Edited by: sweetsmellofsuccess on Feb 20, 2014 6:36 AM

That's probably true... though perhaps a few names could be subject to change for various reasons. Maybe some actors on my list could be included.

I agree with your choice of Dorothy Malone!!

Here's mine: James Cagney Miriam Hopkins George Kennedy Lawrence Tierney Donald Sutherland Claire Trevor Edward G. Robinson Van Johnson Diane Keaton Sydney Greenstreet Rod Taylor Joan Leslie Richard Barthelmess Franchot Tone Monica Vitti Jack Elam Juano Hernandez Ward Bond Angie Dickinson Peter Ustinov Claudia Cardinale Jason Robards Lee Van Cleef Laurence Harvey Charles Bronson Edmond O'Brien William Powell Jack Warden Eli Wallach Setsuko Hara Bruce Dern Audrey Totter Warren Oates Edited by: sweetsmellofsuccess on Feb 12, 2014 7:09 AM

Loved her in Lady in the Lake and The Set-Up. Maybe she'll be included for Summer Under the Stars next year?

A pretty interesting mix here. I'm looking forward to seeing Heston, Deneuve, Holden, Balsam, McQueen, Gable, and Beery.

Thanks!!

I'll just use my first-timer list from a previous thread (and maybe add one or two): Paul Muni Sydney Greenstreet Jean Simmons Dean Martin Mickey Rooney Joan Fontaine Melvyn Douglas William Powell Richard Barthelmess Simone Signoret Anna Magnani Jeanne Moreau Lilli Palmer Walter Brennan Madeleine Carroll Richard Burton Alain Delon Walter Huston Eleanor Parker Agnes Moorehead Gena Rowlands Jason Robards Herbert Marshall Arthur Kennedy Patricia Neal Eli Wallach Lee J.

I really like the choice of Thomas Mitchell for SUTS. He was a first-rate talent!

I was blown away by Simone Signoret's performance in Room at the Top. Her Oscar was well-deserved, though Audrey Hepburn in The Nun's Story was also superb.

Thanks!! A few cases such as Magnani, Signoret, or Madeleine Carroll, I've only seen a few of their films, but have been blown away by their performances so far. SUTS would certainly be a good way for me (and, of course, everyone) to see more their work.
