Scarlett Johansson was in *Lost in Translation* with Bill Murray B-)

*Captains of the Clouds* nw: tyrannical

If you watch enough of a film to know you don't like it, you can stop watching. Surely you don't need someone else to tell you this, do you?

William H. Macy was in *Mystery Men* with Lena Olin

Was it the first Dreyer movie you've seen?

I wish DirecTV included TV-5 Monde but to the best of my knowledge, it does not.

My bad, I was half-asleep when I posted that. It's still darn good news, I think, more incentives for classic film fans to go Blu-Ray in time for the holidays.

*Sullivan's Travels* nw: windmill

Rae Dawn Chong was in *The Colour Purple* with Lawrence Fishburne.

Some film fans (myself included) are actually very glad that TCM will show even the weaker films that mark actors' or directors' career, especially when they are not available on DVD. A film like *The Cobweb*, as unsuccessful as it ultimately is, is nonetheless of great interest to some either because it's a Vincente Minnelli movie, or because of Richard Widmark or Lauren Bacall, etc. If you don't like it, don't watch it.

Those films are good starts. I've heard Sophia never looked more beautiful than she did in "El Cid." There are other films of her that I'm much more familiar with, but when you get around to watching these, it'll give you some idea of what folks have been talking about with Sophia for the last fifty years. She's good. And her beauty... > > Playtime, huh? Awww Frank. ;-) Frank you may also want to check out *Two Women* the movie for which Sophia won an Oscar. It's in PD hell in the U.S. so it may be hard to find a good looking copy, although the one they show on TCM from time to time doesn't look so bad.

I think it might seem slow to some now, but it probably didn't to audiences in the early 30's.

*Shallow Hal* nw: archduke

Warner Oland was in *Shanghai Express* with Anna May Wong

Well, I don't know. I guess someone who just cuts-and-pastes mindlessly could be on steroids. Someone who writes intelligent posts might simply be a very skilled typist.

How could I have any idea what any typist looks like behind their monitor?

That is actually a very good idea. I wonder if anyone besides BVHV might try it. I would love to buy a BR/DVD combo of *Beetlejuice* and *A Nightmare Before Christmas*. I'm sure a lot of other people would too. And in a sign that pricing strategies are making BR more affordable, I checked amazon.com not too long ago and found that the BR version of *A Clockwork Orange* is actually a few dollars cheaper than the regular DVD.

Oh. I had no idea. It's a sad state of affairs, then, that the TCM boards should allow steroid-enhanced smileys, it puts all other smileys at an unfair disadvantage

I think it's one of Dreyer's most interesting films, actually. His command of cinematic technique is quite astonishing considering it was his first talkie.
