> I agree 100%. I like the movie for its strengths, and overlook the weaknesses. Your critique is an excellent one.

 

Overall, I think the strengths are far greater than the weaknesses; it might have been even more effective with a slightly shorter running time. But the photography, score, performances, etc. are all first-rate, I think.

[What movie is this picture from?]

Life as a House ?

> Is Coca-Cola the major manufacturer to whom you refer? If it is successful, maybe others will soon follow suit and the competition can bring the price down a bit.

 

No, although they do make a "Kosher for Passover" version of their main cola drink once a year. The one I referred to is their main rival, which just came out with a version of their main drink called "throwback", which is essentially a cola drink with sugar instead of HFCS.

> But Schindler's List pretends like it knows Schindler's motives.

 

Not the impression I was left with. Guess others didn't feel the same way.

Macao

[Name a Celebrity - Name a Movie]

Robert Benchley was in The Stork Club (1945) with Barry Fitzgerald

[*A to Z of actresses and actors*:)]

Carroll, Nancy (Theme of tonight's schedule)

[Name a Celebrity - Name a Movie]

Manolo Fabregas was in The Candy Man (1969) with George Sanders

 

(I got to meet Fabregas once and he was an incredibly nice man, a true gentleman - so what if only two of his film credits are U.S. productions?)

[The First Film That Comes to Mind...]

Charade (chicken or liverwurst?)

Have a cola on me, hamradio.

[Name a Celebrity - Name a Movie]

Shirley MacLaine was in Two Mules for Sister Sara with Manolo Fabregas

[this or that]

William Demarest.

 

Bette Davis or Betty Page?

[Old-fashioned snacks: bring back the sugar?]

Well I could use a good old-fashioned snack myself right about now.

[Cops, Robbers, Gangsters, Detectives, and crimes of the century....]

In addition to Fred's suggestions, I'd recommend the original Scarface with Paul Muni, Little Caesar with Edward G. Robinson, and The Public Enemy with James Cagney, all from the early 30s.

[the name of a movie so I can purchase]

Hey sissy48-

The movie is Between Two Worlds.

[The Blue Dahlia, (1946) Monday night]

> {quote:title=Ollie_T wrote:}{quote}

> BLUE DAHLIA has been available in Europe for several years now - 8? 7? - as a Region-2 DVD. It's another one of those 'typical American films' that apparently is no longer a viable commercial option here. Yeah. Right...

 

That is just the wrong-headedness of one studio's home video division. There's no way a movie like The Blue Dahlia wouldn't sell if they put out a DVD.

George Cukor

 

The Blue Bird or The Blue Dahlia ?

[this or that]

Annie Get Your Gun

 

Stanley Donen or Vincente Minnelli?
