  1. The actual title of the film is: How To Spell. Budget cuts resulted in some letters being trimmed.
  2. YAYYYY!!! lavender !!!
  3. I believe we might have a case for derogatory terms against the transgender community. And with "port" and "Van" thrown in, who knows where this will lead. We'll probably never be able to watch Silence of the Lambs on anything but a DVD player. Again.. EVER!
  4. 475 I'm tellin' ya' Bill, this PCV stuff is the wave of the future. No respectable household is going to be caught dead without it.
  5. You're right. It's not Ava Gardner.. Cary Grant
  6. You're gonna wake up around 2:30 AM tomorrow.. driven by the urge.
  7. The Dead Zone was pretty good - I thought. Human curiosity being what it is, I often wonder about the efficacy of these Spoiler Alert widgets. I mean really.. who is NOT going to look.
  8. No, no, and no. You forgot Ava Gardner.. ..more..
  9. I Remember Mama (1948) Katrin (Barbara Bel Geddes) narrates offscreen - she also pops in and out onscreen at several points while directly addressing the audience.
  10. Isn't one o' those variables supposed to have a spin? .. or is that just when two or more posters collide?
  11. With me, it's Chartreuce - ! Ever since Chrysler put that on their cars back in the 60s..
  12. She's not Susan.. here's more..
  13. 474 What to do with the bucket after the popcorn is gone
  14. I'm glad you brought that up. It would be interesting to see those true colors which were used specifically for the camera. I'll bet some were awful.
  15. Ya know the hard candies that have that red ribbon color running through them.. mostly found around the holidays.. that's the color red I imagined. With the rest being a sort of pearlescent white - like the candy. Here.. this stuff. Now that you know Myrna's a red head, there's no going back.. you can't unimagine.
  16. Yeah. Looks a little frumpy in this pic - not the clearest photo. I think we see it mostly from the waist up, so it's not too bad. Some time back, here on these boards, someone mentioned this dress was green striped - I always imagined it red.. don't know why. It wasn't to match her hair because I had not found out she was a redhead until many years after seeing this film for the first time. I think that poster mentioned the color was revealed in a biography - not sure if it was Myrna's or another actor's. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Some years ago, I had thought of something I hadn't realized before: We, the audience, see these films in b&w and have to imagine the colors, while (nearly) everyone involved in the making of them sees them in their true colors. Except for their personal prints, going to a screening, DVDs, or watching them on tv/cable, they may not see these films in b&w at all - ever. My whole perception of many b&w films is based in great part on the fact they are b&w, as it adds to the feeling and atmosphere. When I see still color shots of b&w films, I just can't imagine that film having been made in Technicolor (for example). The biggest shock I received was seeing a color still of Greer Garson for the first time. I had never imagined her hair to be red - I'm still not used to it. I want my Greer in b&w.
