Never realized she had so much money.

I guess several are in the guest house and garage studio, so that means around 8 in the big house then. LOL.

Ugh and next week Aug 14th the old chestnut HOUSE ON HAUNTED HILL. I love it, but after seeing it numerous times, even in a theater, just can't sit through it again.
Heh, notice the exteriors are not an old Gothic mansion as pictured above, but a Frank Lloyd Wright Aztec Moderne style house.
DITTO! I'll pass.

I don't see it on the schedule, but that's The Capitol for ya. Run by the seat of their pants, you gotta remain flexible.
Let's try to gather for a photo or even a video "hello" for the TCM Message Board Members who couldn't be there. With Cinefest discontinued, Eastman House & Toronto Film Society still "remote", maybe more TCMers will attend CapitolFest next year.
That would be fun!

Heading to Capitolfest tomorrow. The current schedule: https://www.romecapitol.com/capitolfest-18-current-schedule/. The Pursuit of Happiness (Paramount, 1934, starring Joan Bennett) is a recent addition to the schedule. Very much looking forward to it.
I've already been in touch with some of you about meeting up. For those of you who can't make it, I'll post recaps and impressions.
Yes, please do! Can't wait to hear your comments!

Sorry, I meant "bad guy". His gut was OK until the very end.

I finally watched TRAINING DAY. As a huge Denzel Washington fan somehow I had not seen it. It's a 2001 film for which he won his best actor Oscar. It was good, but very violent. I kept thinking that I have a hard time with Denzel being "the bad gut". I wonder if like with many other great actors, his Oscar for this film was a "make-up" call. For me he's had many other roles that were better. Your thoughts.
How bad was his gut? He won for that because the Beautiful Mind actor (Russell Crowe) threw a hissy fit in a hotel during nomination time and the bad publicity ruined his best actor chances. The Beautiful Mind film won in other categories, but NOT Best Actor.......

The Owl and the Pussycat also originally had a brief nude scene that was quietly discarded over the years, presumably because it was well known that Streisand was not comfortable with the scene in the first place and also because Columbia Pictures owed her a bit of a favor after two of her films (The Way We Were and For Pete's Sake) single-handedly kept them out of bankruptcy and going out of business. No clue why the F-word was dropped though; she has used it in other films (The Prince of Tides, The Mirror Has Two Faces, Nuts). However, Owl and the Pussycat's rating was dropped from R to PG on a 1974 rerelease, and aside from a reissue of another 1970 release (The Landlord) that film was not heard in PG rated films at the time.
Yes, I was wondering if it was due to a re-rating. That figures.

Oops, sorry. I was leaving work and typing super fast, I just corrected all sorts of typos. To be fair, I’mSURELY not the first person who’s gotten Maggie Evans and Victoria Winters mixed up.
Nah.

The actress playing Farley Granger's nerdy/sexy wife is credited as Laura Elliott. It was many years after I had first seen STRANGERS ON A TRAIN that I realized the same actress (billed as Kasey Rogers) played Louise Tate on Bewitched.
The 2nd Louise Tate

I watched DARK SHADOWS: THE VAMPIRE'S CURSE which is a three-hourish compendum of edited bits of the storyline from the DAYTIME SHOW that explained how THE TREACHEROUS (and apparently bulletproof) ANGELIQUE turned BARNABAS into a vampire.
It's the most I've ever watched of the classic soap in a full sitting, I've seen the stray bits here and there on the internet and back when it ran of SOAPNET and SCIFY. Realizing of course that they are leaving all sorts of stuff out (the whole MAGGIE WINTERS traveling in time is omitted), I still like it quite a bit.
At the SEMINAL MOMENT when BARNABAS BECOMES AFFLICTED WITH THE DARK CURSE...courtesy of a WOOLWORTH'S HALLOWEEN DECORATION BAT ON A FISHING POLE THAT FOR ABOUT THREE SECONDS YOU CAN SEE THE STAGEHAND HOLDING, I actually (and honestly) glimpsed the beauty of the show. it's the closest thing a lot of us will come to see a GRAND GUIGNOL...or a rendition of VARNEY: THE VAMPYRE on the BLACKPOOL PIER.
It is truly to be cherished.
I'm impressed by almost all of the acting...JOAN BENNETT has some unsteady moments though, I wish they could have found a way to put her more at ease or something, but at the same time MAMA, for a woman who "has not left the house in 20 years" MS. COLLINS-STODDARD is DONE, HONEY. Five pounds of HAIR PIECES, IMPECCABLE SUITS, JEWELRY THAT IS TO. DIE. FOR. AND IN ONE SCENE A CHARTREUSE PAISLEY PUCCI PRINT, MAMA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I wonder if she and JONATHAN FRID (who is wonderful) ever got in a brawl over the last tube of eyeliner....
I've always thought LOUIS EDMONDS was a stuff until I saw him in these period scenes and he is perfect. I am very sorry he did not go on to a HENRY DANIELL-like career on screen.
The sets and the costumes are superb. I wonder how they managed to have all those roaring fireplaces on a soundstage in downtown NYV.
Some of the shots- saturated as they are- are absolutely uncanny.
Yeah, how did Elizabeth get all those duds if she never left the house in 20 yrs???? She must've had a personal shopper. AND I DOUBT you could find many of those clothes in a dinky Maine town like Collinsport!
And its VICTORIA Winters!!!! Not Maggie!

Ramon Novarro SUTS
6 a.m. Devil-May-Care (1929). Navarro’s talkie debut.
Implying Ramon Novarro is not worth watching? I DISAGREE.

I found him to be quite perfect in: Just Shoot Me! (1997–2003) as the slightly-over-the-hill player who married one of his daughter's classmates.
I enjoyed that show.

I wish there would be a digital release of THE OWL AND THE PUSSYCAT that includes the part where Barbra Streisand's character Doris tells the men in the car who've been catcalling her to "F*** off." On the DVD release and in the digital version that's shown on TCM that part (about 10 seconds) is missing. The scene cuts from Doris walking toward the car (after she's told George Segal's character Felix to excuse her for a moment) to her walking away from the car to re-join Felix. Thus, there is no context for the men in the car to start chasing Doris and Felix.
My mother has a VHS copy of the movie that does have that moment, but it's full frame pan-and-scan!
I think this was the first time a major female Hollywood star dropped an f-bomb in a movie so those 10 seconds are historically significant.
I wonder why that is? STUPID! Yes, I've heard about that scene.

That one's available on DVD and, as you might guess, I am fond of the film.
Hopefully they'll run it again.

Why is it boiled again in tea? Does it have tea flavor when you eat it? I'm not into cooking either, but eggs are easy to make (but I don't want to watch 17 mins of them being made). Maybe I can watch in small doses. LOL.
