Congrats Cee on MISS ANNIE ROONEY.
-
Yes,Scottman,Olivia is still with us. However,this thread is discussing OLD movies that have at least 3 major stars who are still alive. We got as far back as 1942. Check it out.
-
Yes, Esther Williams is still with us and coming up for air.
-
How about ANDY HARDY'S DOUBLE LIFE from 1942 ? Mickey Rooney, Ann Rutherford, and Esther Williams.
-
I would love to see the 2 DON WINSLOW serials of the early 40's. Interesting heroines in each.Elyse Knox,mother of Mark Harmon, in DON WINSLOW OF THE NAVY and June Duprez of Thief of Bagdad fame [1940] in DON WINSLOW OF THE COAST GUARD.
-
Yes indeed, keep those serials coming !
-
Perhaps they will wind up on Comast's Xfinity On-demand cable channel at $2.99 per view.

O.J. Simpson.

I think you are absolutely right. The sets are the main attraction in this movie. I'll take Sabu and the 1940 version any time. Now I am less upset about the early start of this film. Just don't mess up on Ace Drummond, The Constant Nymph and The Story of Temple Drake.

Most of you sound quite tolerant of TCM's error. I know there's nothing that can be done about it now, but I am a bit peeved.
-
Post the October schedule tomorrow and I will forgive you TCM.
-
Yes, this is one hell of a screw up. Not typical of TCM. Now we have to wait at least 3 months to see the film complete. I wonder if anyone's head will roll at TCM.
-
I am surprised nobody has mentioned a really good little gangster film from 1947 aptly titled THE GANGSTER. Produced by the King Brothers at Allied Artists. It's available for purchase at the WB shop, but I want to see it on TCM. I saw it many years ago and I remember Barry Sullivan, John Ireland and Akim Tamiroff were among the cast.

Valentine Xavier, why don't you request Schindler's List and Exodus?
-
I suppose if Israel retaliates for Hezbollah rockets fired into Israel then Israel is responsible for the conflict. Administrator, I think it is time to remove this thread. It has nothing to do with movies anymore .
-
Too bad about CONVENTION CITY. I would have liked to seen what got the would be censors so upset.
-
No one so far has mentioned CONVENTION CITY; so let me be the first. Unfortunately searches for it have proved hopeless.
-
Fred C.Dobbs, I hope you are right. I hope the old dictatorships will not be replaced by fundamentalist Islamist regimes as happened in non-Arabic Iran when the shah was overthrown.
-
Evidentally you don't know what's happening in Syria, Libya , and Yemen. Even if they topple their dictatorships, do you REALLY think they will open up their minds to a diverse society with freedom of speech and religion as we have here in America.
-
Another afterthought. I wonder if SHINDLER'S LIST was ever shown in Arab theaters or TV?
-
If the image of an Arab shows them to be an intolerant people they certainly deserve it. Here in America they can practice their religion; they can build and attend a mosque. Ask your guest Mr.Osborne why Christian bibles and crucifixes are not allowed in Saudi Arabia. My wife worked there for 9 years. She has told me much you wouldn't believe. Ask your guest why people with Jewish sounding last names are denied entry as visitors? I am not talking about Israeli Jews. I am talking about American Jews , British Jews , French Jews,etc. I am sorry but until Arabs recognize their own discriminatory behavior they cannot have my sympathy.

THE MONKEY'S PAW, unfotunately is considered a "lost" film. I wish it were otherwise. As far as I know, VILLAGE TALE and FROM THIS DAY FORWARD have never aired on TCM.
-
A real fun thread. I knew a few. Very enjoyable.
-
A few that could be added to Topbilled's list could be THE LIGHT THAT FAILED , THE FURIES , UNDERWORLD [silent] , INTERNES CAN'T TAKE MONEY and GUN SMOKE [1931].

There is a possibility that 3 actors from THE ADVENTURES OF TOM SAWYER in 1938 may still be with us.
