  1. I think I love Beulah Bondi most in REMEMBER THE NIGHT-- her relationships in that are so real, especially between her and her sister (played by another great character actress Elizabeth Patterson). Also love how she milks her heart conditiion in VIVACIOUS LADY.

  2. Richard Rodgers' musical "On Your Toes" featuring "Slaughter on Tenth Avenue"

  3. Just to prove my point, t'other day we finished watching whatever movie we were watching and saw TCM was showing THE STING--one of my favorites, and a classic I would say. But my dad asked, "Why is TCM showing this?" I said, "Because it's great. They show it all the time." He said, "But that film isn't a classic--it came out when I was in high school!"

     

    See what I mean? :)

     

  4. That is an excellent picture of Ward Bond. Hard to choose a favorite film role of his because he was in so many films. But my favorite Ward Bond moment is in MISTER ROBERTS when William Powell gives him Henry Fonda's last letter to post for the crew, and before he takes the letter, Ward Bond removes his work glove. Just remembering that makes me a little misty. Excellent touch.

    Now my favorite character actress is another John Ford favorite, Mildred Natwick. :)

  5. Since everyone's talking about SUSPICION, I'll chime in my two cents. Although I agree that it seems hastily thrown in that Cary isn't the killer, I have to say that even if he was the killer I wouldn't believe it of Cary Grant's character in that film. So that being said I have to agree with something someone else said on this thread, which is that IF they weren't going to have Cary be the killer and make it a false-accusation movie, they couldn't just end the movie where they did the way they did with the hasty wrap-up without revealing that the whole time the killer was some other character in the film. So to conclude, no matter how you look at it, it's a disappointing ending.
