Rod Serling was kind of close. There's a series of toilet paper commercials featuring a family of three bears, (Charmin.) If you can overlook the **** fixation it's actually sort of cute.
-
I haven't seen a Suppository commercial in a very long time. Maybe your thinking of the Vaginal Mesh Class Action Suit Ads on THIS. (On a very unrelated note the Barbituates Marylin Monore Od'd on 50 years ago were supposedly in suppository form. This Thread has gone very off track.)

Tommorow There are a couple of films of interest not on TCM:
Lady And The Tramp will be on the Disney Channel from 6 AM to 7:30 AM, (EST.) Once in a while they'll delve into their old catalog.
It's A Wonderful Life will be on NBC tommorow night from 8 to 11 PM,(EST.) Yeah their are commercials and it's not TCM, (and i guess most of you have seen it a bunch of times) but it's their.

She was very beautiful. Worked alot but did not have a huge career.
I saw Once Is Not Enough last year. It was dated but enjoyable. Touched By Love is a very obscure film. I taped it off late night TV back in 1994.
-
I plan on taping a repeat so I'll see in in a month or two.

*Spoiler Alert*
I saw the much maligned remake. The way they showed to only male in the movie was kind of clever. At the end of the movie a character gives birth. The child is a boy.

Here's another funny story about Larry Hagman. His neighbor in Malibu was Burgess Merideth. After years of great roles people only seemed to remember his as The Penguin. To annoy Mr Merideth he would play a tape loop of the Penguin's signature "Wa Wa" sound over to his house.
-
Actually the timing of this showing of Harry And Tonto is interesting. Larry Hagman has a small part in it and he just left us.
-
He was in Blake Edwards S*O*B, which was William Holden's last film. That film is maligned but I kind of like it. It was better than Ten which I thought had very little energy to it.
(Also Bo Derek was [is ] very pretty, but I can't see mysely going nusty cucko over her. I digress.)

I wonder how the reboot of Dallas will deal with his passing? I heard half the season was shot.
Actually Dallas without JR sounds like M*A*S*H without Hawkeye, which is Aftermash.

I know there were lepers in the Gospels, but I'm not sure which movie about the life of Christ showed them?
Awhile ago I mentioned there were two recent films about Father Damien of Molokai, (who worked among the lepers of that colony.)
*The Motorcycle Diaries*, a movie about the early life of Che Guvara, had a scene of him and a his friend visiting a leper colony.

*Wrist Cutters: A Love Story*
Most of this film Takes place in a desert like purgatory. It's probably my favorite film of the new millennium
I think you can call the Mad Max films desert movies.

I was at Wal Mart around 3 today. It was busy but not chaotic. I guess all the sale items were gone by then.
-
You might want to check the schedule for The Lifetime Movie Network for *Last Exit*. it's on there once in a while.

Another Mordechai Richler novel that was made into a film was Joshua Then And Now. It came out in 1985 and starred James Woods. It also aired on the CBC a few years ago.
I think there was a mini series called St Urbain's Horseman based on Mordecai Richler's work.

Actress Deborah Raffin has died of Leukemia at the age of 59. She was in Forty Carats, Once Is Not Enough, Touched By Love, and auditioned for Lois Lane in Superman.
-
I've seen it played on the CBC.

Another director who made good to great films at the end of his career is Robert Altman. His last film A Prairie Home Companion was good. Also some good late Altman Films were Cookie's Fortune, Gosford Park, and The Company.

This Thanksgiving From 11 AM to 7 PM VH1 Classic is going to show a Rocky And Bullwinkle marathon. I Don't know what this has to do with classic rock, (that channel also shows Married With Children reruns.) but when it comes to old cartoons I don't really mind. They is still enough room on their schedule to show The Song Remains The Same a bunch of times.
(FYI an average Rocky And Bullwinkle episode is about 22 minutes. In TSRTS Led Zeppelin takes 26 minutes to get through Dazed And Confused.)

I googoled Mahatma Kane Jeeves. I got an article on a WC Fields Pseudonym. Why do I think somebody's pulling my leg.

John Huston last two films were Prizzi's Honor and The Dead. Not a bad ending.
Sidney Lumet's last film was Before The Devil Know Your Dead, another really good film.

Switch film geek to tv geek and this will make sense.
On American Horror Story Asylum one of the nuns is named Mary Eunice. One of the executive producers of that show is Jennifer Salt. Her most famous role is Eunice Tate on Soap. A TV geek would wonder if that is deliberate or a coincidence
-
The ending to the Canadian film Last Night is amazing. As Don Mckellar and Sandra Oh run towards each other, The world burns up by getting to close to the sun, all to strains of Peter Seeger's version of Guantanamera.
-
I've notice that the CBC, (the only Canadian network my cable system get) is showing less late night movies. In the next ten days the only overnight movie they're airing is Capote. In their place they have been showing CBC shows such as 18 To Life, Being Erica, Sophie, and the Border. They're also showing cable programs like The Tudors and Camelot.

I highly recomend Moonrise Kingdom, (on DVD) especially for fans of older films.
