..and so ends the discussion.
Seems like a good example of the discussion on that other thread, about letting these die a natural death.

MAMMA ROMA with the great Anna Magnani is scheduled during the overnight hours on October 11 (actually early October 12).
I love Magnani and I love.MAMA ROMA. Must be a Colhmbus Day tribute.

TikiSoo--I'm afraid I made that comment, but the schedule won't let me go back farther than Sept. 10th & I can't find Separate Tables on the schedule--but that sounds a Lot like a comment I made back in late August/early Sept.--at the time I wondered (& yes, I posted it) why it was getting so much air time just before the month featuring him. As far as I can tell, "Separate Tables" has been replaced by the musical remake of "My Man Godfrey" (1957). I'm So Sorry if I got "Separate Tables" bumped from the schedule--MMG is watchable, but co-stars the message boards least favorite actress, June Allyson.
Edit--I guess my philosophy should be "catch the film when shown"--I didn't figure in TCM's possible schedule adjustments--that's my fault.
And of course said actress was on all day today.

Yeah, it was taken off rather suddenly. They didnt have much time to wrap up the storylines. By that time the storylines were such a mess I guess it didnt matter much. I remember rushing home from school to watch it and being **** when it was preempted for something..........
Before we had recorders. Ancient times!
I must be tired right now, but am I correct.to remember a recent (2-3 years ago) DARK SHADOWS movie, an update of the series, with Johnny Depp and Alice Cooper(!). Or was it an update of some other tv show or movie?
-
I agree that June would be a great month for Marilyn Monroe to be honored as Star Of The Month.
I hope it woud be sooner but I can see the reason for it being in June.
She definitely deserves an entire month.
Nothing less.than an entire month for Marilyn, I agree. She has done enough films,.so if TCM.can get some of her Fox films, on top of the usuaal suspects, it should be totally doable.

DownGoesFrazier--I had to look up cthonian on Dictionary.com--it means Beings or related to gods under the earth--She was a goddess who walked the earth in human form is what slaytonf means, I Think.
In other words, an Earth Goddess.

5. LIFE BEGINS AT EIGHT OUNCES

Veronica.Lake did not cut her hair.when the War Dept. requested it. Rafher, she pulled it back, or put it up, thereby diminishing.one of her best.known trademarks. Later, in the late 40s, after the Lake vogue, she cut he hair, but because that was the style of the day. It didn't become her.

Anyone else out there feeling withdrawal symptoms, now that September is over, wishing there will be more weekly lineups of Susan Hayward films? Seriously.

LOL. I love Number Two!!!
Yes, it's a nailbiting suspenseful movie.till the end.
Btw, I tried to post a new list.yesterday, but my cell was not getting any bars, and it vanished. As I do these on the spot, I will try to remember most of the titles and try again later.
-
Vogue should feature a layout on the well-dressed death sentencee.
And Martha Stewart.can contribute an article on what the well decorated.cell.can look.like, and how to get the look from everyday items lying about.

Also in reference to the Oscar clip, I don't think Hayward could possibly have been dressed better either. That is a wonderful outfit she has on, kind of a nod to her role (her character wears a similar nightgown in a famous scene) and it's very elegant, yet sexy. And the gloves are nice too.
Lol. Except that Hayward's Oscar night gown had one of those full poufy 50s skirts. You can't tell from the photos. The top portion looks similar though.

Well in "The Girl Can't Help It' the makers of this film worked with what they were given.
You're referring to Julie London's voice, right?

Thanks for posting Lydecker. If I knew how, I would cut and paste in the 20th Century Fox thread over on the New Releases (or whatever it's called) subforum. Thanks again.

I.missed the.showing the other night. I do remember seeing it as a kid back in the late 70s, on an early cable.channel (Channel Z?), anx liking it. I caught some of Dianne.Carroll's comments.later, and found her.interesting and on target. Let's.get her back.

Arturo, perhaps it seems a little odd for me to put this clip of the introduction of a '60s game show on your Linda Darnell thread.But this is the show on which I recall, as a little kid, seeing Linda appear (she was the centre panelist, if I remember correctly). Being an admirer of the lady at the time, from frequent television broadcasts of The Mark of Zorro, I was both surprised and delighted to see her, thinking her still very, very beautiful.As you look at this clip, try to envision Linda there, if you can, in place of Mary Tyler Moore. At least this brief clip gives you a bit of a feeling for the show.The movie buff in me loved this show, by the way, produced by NBC in the esrly '60s, inasmuch as countless Hollywood stars from the studio era would appear on it as "surprise" guests hiding behind a curtain. It would be something if the show with Linda surfaced one day.[media]
[media]Thanks for the great clip, Tom, as well as for the information. Yes, I would love to come across the episode with Linda Darnell, since there are so few opportunities for this in the 1960s. Plus she comes across in a live setting as quite charming and even sexy, as her appearance as the Mystery Guest on What's My Line amply demonstrates. That clip may still be on youtube, although the complete half hour show is also on there. Unfortunately, the comment section was deleted, and no comments can be posted. Not sure what happened there, but some of the nasty comments I alluded to re. Linda's death were being posted there the last time I had seen the comment section. So nastiness and censorship are not just on this site.

Yes, thanks for clarifying. Awful. I thought that was the case. Dunno how that rescue story got started....
Well,.the rescue story is at least plausible, in that it was something that the generous and selfless qualities of Linda might've done. Some of the things I have read online are mean, and even downright evil.

I will be going out of town the last week in October, but I don't remember which day just now. Hopefully I will get a chance to watch this.

This makes me wish I lived in Upstate New York, if only for a short time each August.

Providing Fox would provide it. Years ago on AMC they had a special about the film and put together what scenes were available (not much). Marilyn looked great and nothing appeared amiss (dispelling the rumors she just wasn't "together"....)
Yes I saw that special, and the truncated version of SOMETHING'S GOT TO GIVE. I have it recorded on a vhs somewhere.
Totally agree she looks beautiful, relaxed.and thinner than she had in awhile. Too bad she couldn't finish it. I'm wondering if it comes as an extra on a Monroe dvd. I would hope that if TCM did have an MM SOTM, that they would show this footage.

I see they are trotting out some of Bob Hope’s worst films again.
11:30 p.m. The Haunting (1963). This Robert Wise chiller is the pick of the bunch. Great atmospheric sound effects. Much better than the CGI-laden remake.
It.seems that.they are.later Hope films,.from the 1960s.
I love THE HAUNTING,.and agree that.Claire Bloom is the best reason to watch it.

Nice right-up. I recorded the evening of tv shows, but haven't had a chance to watch them yet. Looking forward to the opportunity.
