  1. -In this 1938 farce about Hollywood, check out the marquee behind a rather presidential radio announcer, at a film premiere shown in the movie. The film's title is the name of a script penned by a very popular romantic leading man, years earlier which was deemed too weak to film.

    Purple Noon (1961)

    French adaptation of Patricia Highsmith's novel, about Tom Ripley, a talented mimic, moocher, forger and all-around criminal improviser.

    DirRené Clément CastAlain Delon , Marie Laforêt , Maurice Ronet .

    LEONARD MALTIN REVIEW:

    D: Rene Clement. Alain Delon, Marie Laforet, Maurice Ronet, Frank Latimore, Ave Ninchi. "Marvelously photographed (in southern Italy, by Henri Decae), tautly directed suspenser about Delon, who envies playboy-friend Ronet and schemes to murder him and assume his identity. Based on Patricia Highsmith's The Talented Mr. Ripley. Remade as THE TALENTED MR. RIPLEY; also see THE AMERICAN FRIEND."

  3. had to do some digging, don't know Elvis' movies very well ;)

     

    next:

    What early '50s movie is a remake of a 1934 thriller which starred Robert Montgomery. While both films are based on the same source novel, there were a few differences between the two MGM productions, aside from the cast.
