    Okay, on the flip-side of BAD movie posters that do nothing in flattering the lead actress in a movie, I now bring you(somewhat tongue-in-cheek) one that does a GREAT job in making her look even BETTER!

    Now, here (supposedly) is actress Claudia Barrett in...

    ...and HERE she is in shot from that flick...

    (...she sure looks a lot better in the poster, now wouldn't ya agree?!)

    ;)

     

     

     

    Ok really, is that a robot or some sadist moon alien stuck a gorilla's head into a vat of sulfuric acid. :lol:

  2. The film short on TCM "Subject Narcotics".  The intro..

    ...presented the problem to begin with, it should had been a public educational film! :angry:

    What a riot at the very end the narrator said...The people must be made aware its a social as much a police problem. How can they when the producers made this film for law enforcement only? :wacko:

    It's on Youtube.

    Vintage Educational Film: Narcotic Educational Foundation of America

     

    Question...What's the difference between the 1950's and if this was made exactly the same way today (remake)?

    Answer...None, just the fashion wear and cars only changed!

    I did have a "serious" list of titles that haven't been used.

    One of them is RED HORIZON, which I think would be perfect for a western. Hard to believe there's never been a film with this title.

    What about a movie about the comedian..."Red Skelton"?

    Lol talk about memory....

    "The Soupy Sales Show" punned about him... a door to door salesman  tried to sell him a photo of a RED SKELETON and claimed it was Red "Skeleton" when he was young. :lol:

    The Illustrated Man (1969) Rod Steiger, Claire Bloom, and Robert Drivas. Unimpressive. I don't think I've seen a great Ray Bradbury adaptation yet other than The Martian Chronicles on TV. 

    The Illustrated Man Poster

     

    It's unimpressive because there are a lot of illustrated people today. :wacko:

    I personally like True Crime, so I'd be interested in hearing about this story.

    Unless it pertains directly to film or even television (to an extent), please leave politics off this thread.

    Politics belong in the off-topic thread.

    Thank you.

    What does this have to do with politics??????  As you stated it's a True Crime documentary.  Goodness everyone's REACTIONS speaks volumes.

    This crime will certainly have a movie in the works eventually. If a movie does come out guess I shouldn't WATCH IT so not to put some people's underwear in a bunch.

    You know I had the inkling that you spotlighted this on here because either the perpetrator was either an illegal immigrant or Black. 

    Nice job.... You didn't disappoint....

    As I only said,  watched it Saturday night, made no comment whatsoever on race, immigration or POLITICS!  The story and trial is in parts, haven't seen everything yet.  Saw the ad on another channel and thought it was interesting.  Although this being a well known event for many (Googled it), personally just learned about it.  My link only contain info on EPISODES!

    Strange how you jumped the gun on this! :angry:

    Why do we care about any of this, why did we suddenly start talking about the customs and use /lack of use of technologies of the Amish, and why aren't we talking about movies?

    There is the "Off Topic" forum for those eager to explore the life style habits of Amish and Mennonite people.

    The original title (thread) which is a question HOW DOES ONE MAKE IT TO 23 HAVING NEVER HEARD OF CHAPLIN? I think being a 23 year old Amish qualifies. :huh:

  8. "The Love Light" (1921)

    War sure does some odd things to both man and beast.  Causing one to be NAIVE in believing a man would go AWOL because of high wind and sea to a dog pulling out a poor little bird tail feathers.

    Seeing the name Giovanni throughout the film gave me a craving for pizza. :P

    I had a great post written and I accidentally closed the browser window.  Ugh.

     

    If you go to the "Reply To This Topic" and click on the left mouse button,you should be able to recover the whole thing - it simply pops up. Since you already remade this post, it is now gone. :(

    So happens the last reply from different threads are also saved.  Been like this since the last update.  Talk about a headache solver. :)

    Lol just recovered my old Harrison Ford reply from September 17th in another thread!

    I used to be friends with this guy who would tell me old movies were stupid and black & white movies were boring. I think there is a possibly small percentage of teens/young adults who are familar with classic movies and stars but I also know the majority of them couldn't be bothered with old movies. The younger crowd seems not to care about actual talent but rather how hot or sexy a 'star' is today. I do think if you are a young person who is interested in the film business you should be familiar with the stars and movies including the silent era. 

    A woman where I worked said, are silent movies where people walk fast?  Your friends like the guy in question  are ignorant thinking movies without sound, color, etc are no good.  They need to watch films i.e. "The Passion of Joan of Arc", "Orphans of The Storm", "The Big Parade", "J'Accuse" before judging such.

    It's their LOST.

    By the way will colorizing B&W films make them less boring? :huh::wacko:
