Miss Fallen Angel -- Fallen Angel The title of which has always made me ponder: Who is the angel that has fallen? Alice Faye? Linda Darnell? Dana Andrews?
Good question. Here's my opinion: Alice Faye is the one who would qualify as an "angel," but has she fallen? Yes. She's fallen for Dana Andrews. Uh-huh, angels can fall, especially in the wonderful world of film noir.
Frank, don't fools rush in where angels fear to tread?? And don't we like to see nice virginal girls fall...fall...fall?

Yes ma'am...you're right. I was just questioning (slightly) the movie conceit of picking up hoboes (Nick Nolte-Bette Midler-Richard Dreyfuss) or girls/boys on the bench ("Come Live With Me") or convicted (albeit innocent) felons ("Dark Passage"). It just makes me say "only in the movies!"
But with that being said...I still love the film and Agnes Moorhead.

Make sure you get those things onto a DVD for posterity.

Hmmm...I just don't know if that's a good thing for a girl.

"Watson, the needle." Sherlock Holmes to Dr. Watson in 1939's "The Hounds of the Baskerville."

4Ever...what particular forum would that be under? Or is it a trick like Metz did in "My Favorite Gal"??
-
Do like Metsfan does...focus on Hedy Lamarr.

Oooh, I just left something on Robert Ryan. Darn it...I forgot where it was. Nice research about him. Please look around. It's here.

Pidgeon was quite debonair-looking; and what a great voice he had.

Nuthin' better to do Metzie???

Father of actress Jennifer Jason Leigh. What a horrific death. Sheesh!

Butterscotch...the Esther Williams films I've enjoyed were "Easy To Wed" "Bathing Beauty" "Neptune's Daughter" "The Unguarded Moment" and liked seeing her work in an Andy Hardy film ("...Double Life.") Gosh she was pretty.
Baby it's c-c-cold outside.

Quite a lot of work and research you put in there MissGoddess. I'm a big fan of Robert Ryan after getting over my fear of him. He looked so intimidating. But when I saw him in "Tender Comrade" he won my heart over. Now I love him, mean and surly or reluctantly romantic.
Thanxxx for the info.

I thought I read that Vance and Frawley didn't really get along that well.
I had a "ball" watching that show. A classic. Now we have "Two & A Half Men" with old vaudeville humor that even George Burns wouldn't use. How times have changed.
(All time favorite show was "Burns and Allen.")

* the worst thing that ever happened to Hitchcock's careeer
* It foms a clear line of demarcation between the career that spanned, say, THE 39 STEPS...
* and Hitchcock was, it seems, all too willing to please the "suits" at Universal by running with the label and cheapening his output.
Cinesage: * You mis-spelled the word 'career.' * You mis-spelled the word 'form.' * You didn't capitalize the 'A' in the word and.* You use run-on sentences in your effort to rush to get all your thoughts out there to us.
Hey, this spell checking thing is fun. Say...what's this thread about anyway?
-
Oh boy oh boy oh boy...let me jump on this:
HITCH! HITCH! HITCH! HITCH!
Bardot or Loren??

What a classy lady.

You're on the wrong Message Board.

Gracie, looks like this here thread's got a human Spell Checker. I guess one does what one does well. But it certainly isn't about discussing films.
-
Oh please, THAT takes no courage. I still want to know why this thread was resurrected since last posting was in July? UGH!

Hey is that Sara Kowalski and her Schotize Five?

You posted pix of Lana w/Hedy and Lana w/Eve Arden that peaked my interest (in a salacious kind of way). Thanxxxx.
But how about something for the distaff side. Can we girls drool at some eye-candy?? Can we get some Victor Mature or Robert Taylor or some Rory Calhoun or some Tab Hunter or some Rock Hudson; you know what I mean...beefcake.
Of course not on Lana's thread though I think she loved the beefcake too. Just askin'.

Those girls were hot stuff. Luckily they had Omar Sharif to show for it. I laughed out loud when I went to the site. Hopefully it'll chill him out.
