*Presley couldn't act. A non-actor doesn't deserve to be on SUTS, and take up valuable space better given over to William Powell, who COULD act.*
*Presley was not an actor, he was a commodity that the greedy executives decided to exploit and suck dry in every medium available.*
While I do agree that Powell would have been a much better selection than Elvis for SUTS (and quite frankly shocked that he never had been), ths is just a reflection of my own personal preference for either.
And ....It is called "Summer under the STARS"...not "Summer under the ACTORS".... Elvis was a MOVIE STAR, and that is why he is featured. You will be able find someone here belittling the acting ability of any movie star....Acting is not, and never was, a prequisite for movie Stardom. And in the studio era, ALL movie stars were treated as commodities and were exploited thus. Elvis is no different....
-
*Arturo, this is another example of you trying to correct previous posts and insincerely try to show up a fellow poster,*
TB, my intent is not to "correct previous posts", and definitely not to 'insincerely try to show up' anyone. I was happy with TCM showing PROFESSIONAL SOLDIER, and I found your information very interesting. It just struck me odd that fo one movie you state 35 days, exactly 5 weeks, while for the other you are much less definite, mentioning holidays that fell within that period. Yes Zanuck was a workaholic, but I remember reading that it was normal practice at his studio to not film on Sundays, hence my question to you. Sometimes, it was required to film on the 7th day, to catch up, or maybe meet a certain release schedule, or whatever. I think that stars' contracts probably had provisions re; this, and especially in the case of a child actor, with child labor laws, this must have been a must. So I was curious to know if your research had suggested the seven day work week for PS....nothing more.
*One thing we do know is that Louis Mayer only hired his contract stars for 40 weeks a year. They had 12 weeks off per year where they could freelance at other studios, provided Mayer approved of the project.*
Now, I do feel compelled to point out something that may be misleading, imcomplete, inconsistent or flat-out wrong (not that this can't happen to me either). Such as this statement. My understanding is that most long-term studio contracts (from any of the majors) was for 40 weeks. The other 12 weeks were vacation. Usually, it was during the 40 weeks that a player would be loaned out to another studio. Thus the loanout would count to whatever projects the player was contracted to his home studio, and the studio would receive (usually lucrative) remuneration. So they normally went on loan during their regular 40 weeks.
-
*I believe his turn as the alcohlic husband of Grace Kelly in The Country Girl proved why he was not only one of the top box office "stars" of the '40s and '50s for whatever reason, BUT that he COULD be a pretty darn good actor when called upon.*
In the 40s, he was THE top boxoffice star, and I believe he ranks in the top 3 overall EVER. He was HUGE back in the day, so of course he should definitely have been featured in SUTS, and more than once...because as you say, he may not have been one's cup of tea, but if anything he was a star.
Which leads me to Elvis. Those of you who mention he was not a movie star, and therefore should not have been on SUTS, well, he
WAS a legitimate movie star, coming to movies by way of his popularity as a singer, just like Bing, Sinatra and countless others. He had a large following for his movies, and through the mid 60s was usually in the Boxoffice Top Ten each year. I personally cannot get into most of his movies, but that doesn't make him less legitimate to be featured IMHO.
I agree some stars, including some of my favorites, have been featured WAY too much on SUTS, or SOTM for that matter, especially when there are many other LMS (to use Dargo's expression) which have never been so honored.
In terms which has most prestige SUTS or SOTM, well, I feel that there is much more of a spotlight on the star over the course of the a month. There are promos of the star's movies for the duration....some stars have MANY movies featured once a week. By contrast, you have 24 hours in August, sure, but tomorrow is another day, and on to the next pesonage. Also, the promos only feature you (as one of many) if you are normally one whose movies are usually on TCM...no 20th Century stars will be part of the promo (give or take an iconic MM). And that begs the question, as thrilled as I am that SUTS has now featured the likes of Marilyn, Gene Tierney, Linda Darnell and Tyrone Power, they HAVE NEVER been featured as a SOTM, nor will they most likely ever... So being a SUTS honoreemay be just a sop, in lieu of the bigger prize, SOTM.
just rambling here...

This will be on tomorrow morning on HBO Signature, at 3:45 AM, I believe.

CITY FOR CONQUEST is also one of my favorite Cagney films. Great story and cast..Ann Sheridan made a perfect partner for Cagney; they were even better together in TORRID ZONE. She was the type of tough broad that was needed to complement the WB stable of tough guys.

*Ivanhoe was MGM'S biggest earner in 1952 making handsome profits and putting*
*smiles on many who watched it...*
Would that be like a gazillion wooden nickels lol?
And the previous year's RT epic, QUO VADIS, was no slouch as a moneymaker for MGM.

Then there is that great 1937 comedy, a vehicle for Jean Arthur, EASY LIVING, where she is mistaken as the mistress of Edward Arnold's "Bull of Ball Street", or somesuch. So strangers come to her about tips re: buying, selling, etc. Great fun.

*It would have been more believable with Taylor as Linus. I never bought the "romance" between Bogart & Hepburn.*
Actually, Cary Grant would have been the most believable. Aside from the very good reasons mentioned here, that Wilder would not have considered Robert Taylor due to politics, and the logistical one that Taylor was at MGM, and didn't seem to go on loan-outs, another reason to consider is that Taylor did not do romantic comedies, at least not during his 50s (widescreen) epic period. He had done some initially, during his first years of stardom, until the early 40s. But not since then. Whether or not it was part of his and MGM's strategy to feature him in he man roles in action films, and not just as catnip for the women stars he supported at the beginning, he didn't do any in the 50s. Additionally, he would have been far down on the list of actors to get for the romantic foil in this type of comedy, again most likely due to his apparently total disinterest in taking this type of role. Whether he would have been believable is moot; he just wasn't considered nor would HE HAVE considered it.

Lionel's was a great day indeed. I was able to record several films, including MATA HARI, which i only had on VHS.
Today should be another great day of classic films. Ginger Rogers is one of my least favorite actress from the classic era (especially after the very early 40s), but I enjoy most of her movies from that period.
Should be a tonic after yesterday's decidedly hit and miss James Mason day, which made maeuvering through this forum quite daunting,

Where is THE DESERT RATS? FMC has shown THE DESERT FOX rather frequently in the last few months, but never this sequels of sorts. Would've been cool here as a companion piece to the other.
-
Can't remember the last time that CENTENNIAL SUMMER was shown anywhere. It might've been AMC in the early 90s; this is at least more likely that FMC, which may have never shown it. I taped in off the Hallmark Channel maybe 20 years ago.
Don't know why this enjoyable musical, with a big name cast, is not shown; maybe thee is a rights dispute. Anyone out there familiar with that?
-
Seems that the intro was devised for Zanuck's 20th Century Pictures, and adapted after the merger with Fox Films in 1935.
-
I can watch Crawford, Bogie and Ava in just about anything. Wayne I can take or leave; his persona I always found a bit too stridently "american", especially when confronted with Native Americans, Mexicans, etc.
Of more recent actors, the one I cannot stand (although I've enjoyed many of his movies) is Ben Stiller, closely followed by Owen Wilson.

Addision:
You are correct about the tower -- I read it somewhere, although the village (mission) of San Juan Bautista is real. I was passing through Gilroy, CA, (Garlic capital of the US!) south of San Fran years back and saw a sign for SJB, and a light went on about the *Vertigo* movie. I wanted to stop by and see it, but I was not driving that day. Maybe next time. Check it out if you're in the neighborhood. She needed something high to jump off, and that's where script writing and studio creativity come in !
CCDC:
At some point the mission church at San Juan Bautista had a bell tower; it just didn't look like the one that was portrayed in the movie. The museum in the complex has some fotos of the church with the bell tower.
Too bad you didn;t pull of the 101 hwy; the mission is only a couple of minutes from the highway. The mission is on a large, grassy plaza; the other buildings alongside the plaza are typical 19th century wooden false front structures. One end of the small bluff its situated on is the San Andreas Fault. interesting site which can be covered in an hour or so.

*What I don't understand with the stubborness of some is at WHAT point does one "draw the line"?*
*As others have pointed out, there are PLENTY of post-golden era films which are classics. Give enough time to go by, and even today's films will be OLD. How much time has to go by before a film can be allowed to be designated "classic"?*
Yes, but as Fred points out, there are PLENTY of channels that will show these more recent movies, with or without commercials. TMC is a scarce resource that doesn't need to be duplicating many titles that will get airtime elsewhere.

Seems to me many (most?) French and Spanish language films still have "Fin" at the end.

THE TALL MEN will be on tomorrow early on HBO Signature for anyone interested....5 AM.
