    Keep an eye out this week for So Well Remembered, which doesn't show up that often on TCM and has, I think, never been shown on Noir Alley. This well-made Brit noir, directed by Edward Dmytryk,  stars John Mills, with Martha Scott getting to play a sexy bad girl for a change. It's based on a novel by James Hilton, whose novels seem to make good films: Lost Horizon, Goodbye Mr. Chips, Random Harvest. Perhaps this is a noirish melodrama rather than a 100% noir, but it's a good film and I'm looking forward to seeing it again.

    BTW........

    "........the film holds an approval rating of 47% based on 43 reviews and with an average rating of 5.3/10. The websites critical consensus states "In spite of its young leading man's heroic efforts to hold it all together, a muddled message prevents The Basketball Diaries from compelling as a cautionary tale."[9]Metacritic gave the movie a score of 46 based in 19 reviews, indicating "mixed or average reviews".......

    Beth, I was going to post that "acquired taste" thing also.

    I liked him though.  He was different for sure, but it was a difference I took to right off.  And I do think(and hope) there'll be some mention and reflection of him on SVENGOOLIE as Gilbert was supposedly a Sven fan and was also on the show a few times. 

    And when somebody younger than me dies I always get sad.

    Rest In Peace Gil.
