Well this film didn't really help Harrison Ford's career; I just saw him on Gunsmoke in a bit part that was made 2 years after this film.

I used to have a male and female pair of cockatiels but the female died about 3 years ago. I have had the male for around 15 years. The female died when my friend came over for our weekend jam session. About an hour before he got there I could tell she wasn't doing well. The cage is in the jam room so I told my friend what was going on; The bird passed while we were playing While My Guitar Gently Weeps (no joke!). She was around 20 years old so it was her time.

Well I guess the only saving grace is that at least these are not being replaced with commercials hawking 3rd party products. I.e. these are fillers so a film can start on the hour or half-hour. I've been watching PBS's Create network; they show mainly 30 minute T.V. shows that were originally created for commercial T.V. and thus the actual program is around 20 minutes. The host will say something like "we are talking a break and when we get back, the roast will be done", but there is no break (other than a one second showing of the show's title screen), and back to the program. This leaves 9 minutes of dead-time before the next show starts. Dead-time it truly is!

I saw one of those, and it was fine fluff (not necessary but not to annoying), but again, that was only one. I wonder how many of these spots they have recorded and thus how many there will be.

George Wein George Wein, one of the great impresarios of 20th century music who helped found the Newport jazz and folk festivals and set the template for gatherings everywhere from Woodstock to the south of France, has died at 95. Sept. 13, 2021, at 9:01 p.m.

Nice story but I'm glad Julie Andrews didn't sing a little bit of tuna makes the medicine go down!

Yea, someone suggested James_Jazz_Box to separate the words but still avoid the wraparound. (since 14 is the max characters).

MOVIES-TV is not owned by the same company that owns TCM. MOVIES-TV is a join venture between Weigel Broadcasting and the Fox Television Stations subsidiary of Fox Corporation. This is why MOVIES-TV shows a lot of Fox Films (especially noir ones), that TCM doesn't (or shows rarely). As for showing the same films: I posted about this around 6 months ago as a possible reason TCM decided to no longer provide their schedule months in advance. I suspected that MOVIES-TV was reviewing TCM's schedule and using that to influence their programming. E.g. if TCM say an actor will be SOTM, a week or so before, MOVIES-TV will feature that actor. Same with films. MOVIES-TV see what TCM is showing and tries to schedule films they have cheap access to slightly before TCM does. I was told I was delusional! Ha ha. Yea, it could be is just a coincidence and not some plan on MOVIES-TV part. PS: Are those your birds? I have two conures, and one cockatiel.

As you can see I already changed it.

I got the same feeling. Gee, give us a little more info. E.g. is the film in B&W? Narrow it down to a decade. Name at least one actor in the film.

My wife and I watched Wait Until Dark a few weeks back. The only memorable experience I had was after the ending she said to me "you're replacing that Fridge light by this weekend!". I tried pointing out that it was really the opposite; that if that light had been out Audrey would have been in less danger. I replaced the light the following day.

Interesting comment. All I have to add is that the water cooler has been replaced by social media.

Paul Newman replays the role of Edward "Fast Eddie" Felson in The Color of Money, and NOT the Gleason character from The Hustler. This is only logical, since how was the director going to explain someone that looked like Gleason, looking like Newman 15 years later! (ha ha). But really, the above is the reality.

The prop man couldn't find a higher box for Rooney to stand-on.

Well to address the question asked, one has to ignore how much the actor contributed to the film. I don't think that was really your intention but that being said only one of my choices would be a horror film; Instead they would be Casablanca, Laura, High Noon, and Ninotchka, with Karloff being the exception with Bride of Frankenstein. Edit: I noticed that I skipped over Lon Chaney Sr. - my favorite film of his is The Unknown (1927).

I'm watching Tierney right now in Bodyguard (1948) with Priscilla Lane. This was her last film for this Warner Bros. star of the early 40s.

Get-TV is showing Casey Jones, a late 50s T.V. show about trains that stars Hale Jr. and Dub Taylor. The first time I even heard of the show was when I ran into it last month. The show isn't that good but it does feature some guest actors that are familiar. It only lasted for 32 episodes.

The ruby slippers were moved into the new Academy Museum of Motion Pictures.

MOVIE-TV is showing The Clay Pigeon.

I assume Jacqueline will be hosting this and that she can work for both companies.

Related to those red ruby slippers: The Academy Museum of Motion Pictures in Hollywood will open on Sept. 30th. Today's Sunday L.A. Times has a entire section devote to it. There is an interview with Jacqueline Stewart, Chief Artistic and Programming officer. She calls the slippers the "Mona Lisa" of the museum.

How does one change their username? I might update mine getting rid of one of the "z" in jazz, thus that "r" wouldn't wrap around.

Eddie is going south on us on 10\23 when he shows La bestia debe morir - The Beast Must Die (1952).

TCM wasn't launched until April 14th 1994.

Well I finally really watched one of Ben's intros and yea, the moving camera is a distraction. This might cause me to gain weigh while I make myself something to eat before the movie starts!
