It looks like a really fun movie!
When I first saw the title of the youtube clip, I thought it was going to be something from The Ghost Breakers, but what it actually was took me totally by surprise. Those guys sure dressed sharp.

That's the spirit, Chris!
Anyway, this is the collage from that website that someone mentioned earlier:

Was the movie in German? If it was, perhaps it was this one:

The Furies is one of my very favorite westerns ever, Barbara Stanwyck is phenomenal, as always - at least as good as she was in Forty Guns, another favorite!
-
Did you ever get to watch Oklahoma! on the stage?
(And if so - how does it compare to the movie adaptation?)

Well, speaking of the Sony coupons, for anyone here who isn't going to be ordering online but could use the coupons at their brick-and-mortar store, I just found out you can get the coupons online & print them:

Oh how cool. And speaking of smile, do you mind my asking you about that very nice photo on your profile at the CFU?
Haven't seen Kansas City Bomber, but I see it's available on DVD. I'll add it to my Netflix queue.

Wyatt, Capt. Quincy - Gary Cooper in Distant Drums

Thank you, Orson. It would be a very boring world, if everybody always agreed on everything.
And in regards to Chaplin, I do think he doesn't get the recognition he deserves as a filmmaker, perhaps because his obvious comic skills in front of the camera were so memorable themselves.

Well, in any event, it was really awesome to watch Carlos Cuar?n's directorial debut, I've been familiar with the name for more than 15 years, ever since he and brother Alfonso made S?lo con tu pareja, which the two co-wrote together. I don't know if you've seen that one, it never really got a theatrical release in the U.S., but is available on DVD from Criterion.

Peter O'Toole starred in Lawrence of Arabia with Omar Shariff

Perhaps Mr. Osborne was... misinformed?

I looked around for a Raquel Welch thread, but I couldn't find any. I was going to post a small little thing about Fathom, which is going to be showing on FMC later today.

Did anyone else watch it?

Gotten a lot of mail from CFU, but no spam (knock on wood).

I agree, finance, I think it's one of the best - and Fritz Lang could definitely take credit for a lot of the look of noirs, I think, due to his early work in German expressionism, which inspires noir visually to some extent.
I am waiting to watch another Lang noir, Ministry of Fear. Have you seen it?

LOL, yes, that is also true...

*I lov ed the look of the picture and the music. The blues and yellows, with occasional greens and pinks was refreshingly pastel, and made the place seem so beautiful, the kind of place you would want to stay.... It would have helped if Stewart had had more of a struggle within himself to stay there.*
Credit for the beautiful cinematography of The Man From Laramie goes to the great DP Charles Lang, who had already won an Oscar way back in 1932 (for A Farewell to Arms with Gary Cooper) and was to receive over a dozen Oscar nominations after that. He also shot another great Western, One-Eyed Jacks (1961) with Marlon Brando.

Peter,
It just worked for me! I don't know how you figure out all of these code combinations, but thanks for sharing them!

I'd say you're definitely right, Chris. Anthony Mann somehow really allowed Stewart to explore some really dark places that had only been hinted at in It's a Wonderful Life. It's really one of his best performances ever.
Not to change the subject, but has anyone seen Ramrod recently?

Ah, all is well, I have already seen those 3 Lang films, but this one I'm going to be watching for the first time.
