Everything posted by The Lady Eve

  1. *Morgan* is the first and only name that comes to mind. Ray, Joby and Diane
  2. Maybe this will entice someone in to figure out this person and post the next one... I worked with Orson Welles twice, Hitchcock nine times, Truffaut twice and Scorsese once...who am I?????
  3. Ripley, Tom - Matt Damon in *The Talented Mr. Ripley*
  4. You are so right on *La Dolce Vita* - but I'm referring to a #1 hit song (from 1958) that is in the soundtrack more than once in the film - but there is a particular scene in which it is played that was considered sensational at the time.
  5. *H.M. Pulham, Esq.* nw: temptation (and of course, *The Red Shoes* )
  6. I know responding "ditto" is lame so I won't - but when I read your post every word pushed my "why I love TCM" button. Though I grew up in Southern Calif., we, too, had stations out of San Diego but mostly LA that programmed the classics, the not-so-classic and the "creature features." I remember writing in my diary as a 10-year-old that I'd seen *The Great Lie* "starring Bette Davis, Mary Astor and George Brent." Those days are gone! Aside from the infomercial onslaught, the channels that do show "old" movies are airing *The Wedding Planner* or somesuch...to be fair, San Francisco PBS occasionally broadcasts a classic-classic on Sat. night - But, like you, *I have TCM.* I came home tonight to *Ruggles of Red Gap* and now *Top Hat* - I've got "Isn't This a Lovely Day" and "Cheek to Cheek" to look forward to!! Going from Berlin to Gershwin, "who could ask for anything more?"
  7. That really was a good one, all I could think of was guys with carnations in their lapels - but no particular film! for sunflowers - *Lust for Life* nw: tutu
  8. Not *Cat Chaser* (there's another one new to me that I'll have to check out now)...the writer I refer to isn't as well known as Leonard, or Hammett or Chandler, James M. Cain,etc. - but his books have been adapted on several occasions and by at least a couple of very high profile masters... 1. A broken-hearted woman pulls herself together and goes on a journey. 2. But it's not the trip she talked about and she doesn't go far away. 3. She has devised a plan, or should I say plot, to do anything but forget her heartache. 4. She carries a little black book with her? 5. Based on the work of a crime novelist; several of his books have been adapted for the screen. 6. One by one she finds and charms them...
  9. It's not *Trip to Bountiful* but the clues fit up to a point - here's another clue: 1. A broken-hearted woman pulls herself together and goes on a journey. 2. But it's not the trip she talked about, and she doesn't go far away. 3. She has devised a plan, or should I say plot, to do anything but forget her heartache. 4. She carries a little black book with her? 5. Based on the work of a crime novelist; several of his books have been adapted for the screen.
  10. This one doesn't seem to be getting much of a reaction - I'll try another clue... 1. A broken-hearted woman pulls herself together and goes on a journey. 2. But it's not the trip she talked about, and she doesn't go far away. 3. She has devised a plan, or should I say plot, to do anything but forget her heartache. 4. She carries a little black book with her?
  11. Prescott - Cecil Kellaway in *The Letter*
  12. I thought I'd added one - and now I can't remember what it was - how about - nw: sagebrush
  13. Larch, Dr. Wilbur - Michael Caine in *The Cider House Rules*
  14. Amanda Plummer In *The Stepford Wives* (1975),while Joanna met with The Men?s Club, one of its members _____ her picture Ryan O?Neal?s part in Kubrick?s beautiful 1975 epic she was an iconic "flapper" and star of *Flaming Youth*
  15. Old clues + new clue: 1. A broken-hearted woman pulls herself together and goes on a journey. 2. But it's not the trip she talked about, and she doesn't go far away. 3. She has devised a plan, or should I say plot, to do anything but forget her heartache.
  16. Ivy - Drew Barrymore in *Poison Ivy*
  17. to be honest, I don't know what a coal cellar is - but...*Coal Miner's Daughter* nw: red, red wine
