Could use an alternative title..."The Evil Lying Brat".

Actors So Perfect In Their Roles You Cannot Envision Anyone Else

Heston is too melodramatic. I think "Exodus: Gods and Kings" (2014) is very good. The main cast don't behave like they came out of a Shakespearean acting school. Having a kid to be "God" was weird though. Loved when Ramesses II hung that so called "Expert". -

Time will tell when someone does a remake. -
The 1933 short 'Kid in Africa" a parody of Tarzan films. It's a riot Shirley powdered her nose and climbed out of the pot bone dry. Think he... ..was the inspiration for...

A Warm December would make a great musical.

It finally dawned upon her, she looks like Yul Brynner. "The Queen and I"

Persis Khambatta getting her head shaved for the movie.

Just saw this on my Directv guide...."The Bad Seed: Special Edition". Don't know if this is the director's cut with gruesome deaths that were sugar coated or an extra victim.

Did they ever got that one WRONG, the center of the Milky Way Galaxy. Stars orbiting a super massive black hole.

To go where no ex captain / admiral has gone before. Fate worst than being left under a pile of rocks on Veridian III.

Kirk Douglas (1916-I'm Happy To Say He's Still With Us, Folks!)

One other thing that stood out about "Spartacus" was the crucifixion scene. Seems that the producer had some insight, knew how the hands and arms were affixed to the cross but wasn't certain about the feet so just left them dangling. Genius. The Romans did crucify them close to the ground, not 20+ feet up in the air. They served as BILLBOARDS, stating...Don't Even THINK of Defying Rome - You Can Be NEXT! -

It might have been AMC, no other channel I can think of showed widescreen back then. Know it was 1993 because I was on vacation. The only format that had widescreen was Laserdisc. Edited my OP, goodness AMC use to be so much like TCM back then, couldn't tell them apart. Even had their own host version of the late Robert Osborne, Bob Dorian. AMC today...CRAP!! -

Always remember "Spartacus" as the first widescreen movie I watched aired on TV (AMC). Music score by Alex North is magnificent! Sad no one post a recent photo, shouldn't be ashamed of aging (the American hangup). Kirk with wife Anne Douglas also with us. -
"Wanted Dead or Alive" (1987) **** the bonus.
-
Last line that's truly a classic, "Gone With The Wind". Frankly my dear I don't give a damn.

Think he a troll on boards some time back.

I think it's a case of crossed wires, it was Bill Daily not Barbara Eden!

Re: last post.... Patty McCormack's role as the psychiatrist I was thinking the producer had sort of went along the idea, "it takes one to know one".

Mildred Pierce did have a happy ending, picture Veda doing this or peeling a truck load of potatoes for LIFE.

The ending certainly STINKS...the father died, little witch lived and to top it off, she gave a smirk This is why some animals eat their young.

Hard to tell fiction from real life.

Movie theatres don't have a MUTE button.

Now you know why the book was written.

"Smokey and The Bandit" (1977) was his BEST!
