...on a rival station. My pop took me to see this picture. I was all of six. It was a double bill. The second picture was Father Goose. Go figure.

Oh, shoot, I missed it! Got busy and missed the end of the world. Don't feel bad. I slept through it. -
LLoyd Bridges/Earl Holliman - under-appreciated actors

I rather have a certain fondness for Lloyd Bridges. My father was the spitting image of Lloyd and was often stopped on the street. -

I am looking forward to it!! -
I've got a library full of film books and biographies, but one of the best ones I've ever read is Man on a Flying Trapese, The Life and Times of W. C. Fields by Simon Louvish. The author really did his research on Fields' life.

His Kind of Woman is definately one of my fave Mitchum films. I always enjoy his paring with Ms. Russell and Vincent Price is a scream in this film.

Oh, that face, that fabulous face. Whose is it?

How come I can't go beyond page 91 on this thread? I don't know why I'm asking this here, I'll never see the response. I've got to know who that photo is - the one I guessed was Celeste Holm on page 91. -

I remember when the guy came to deliver coal. Wow. I AM old! I remember milk deliveries. The Hoodsie man came in his white frock and delivered milk and cream and at Christmas time brought my mother plastic tubes filled with candy with a Styrofoam snowman head on the top. -
No kidding. His music is legendary.

[i]So I Was Watching This Movie The Other Day...[/i]

That's an excellent question. I've seen that in a lot of movies and television. In one of the Sherlock Holmes pictures, there's a bunch of men in a board meeting. A man feeling the draft from the open winidow behind him gets up and shuts it. Two seconds later a man comes in, announces that "it's stuffy in here" and throws the window wide open. You may be right in that it has something to do with a faulty gas jet leftover from the olden days. It cracks me up though when they do it in the dead of winter. -

Is it Celeste Holme? -
Zeffie Tilbury is most remembered by me for her role as Mrs. Moncaster in Werewolf of London.

Zeffie Tilbury would be even better.

I can remember back in the day when you actually had to get up to change channels, this flick was often on most of them.
-
That's just wrong. Now I'm gonna have that picture in my head all night.

Anybody seen this lately? I just purchased the DVD and watched it last night. This is the first film I remember from my youth. It scared me to death. Practically. A "B" movie that comes close to being an "A", I think, mostly because of Max Steiner's score. Connie Stevens comes across as a little bit too perky for my taste, but I think it's a nifty little film.

Look, I didn't come up with "squicky". Willbefree25 did. I like it, though. I rather think Chet had a ball with any role and hammed it up as much as he could. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chester_Morris
-
Oh, yeah, no doubt about it. The blackface bit was pretty tasteless as was **** and Runt sharing the same bedroom. Definately squicky. But I am always happy to watch Chester Morris and equally happy to see a rare film.

Leaving sticky notes all over the house to remind you of things, especially where you left your glasses so you can READ those notes.
-
How did you like this one? I thought it was pretty good. Steve Cochoran was spooky as the strangler. And Chester Morris kills me. When **** got up out of bed, he pulled a cigarette from his pajama top pocket. Wouldn't you think a pack of butts would get crushed in bed? How about that autographed picture of himself to Runt? LOL!

Crap. It's not. I'll be at work. Maybe YouTube will have it. -

I really, really want to see this. I hope it's on when I'm home as I don't have a recording device. -
Classic Guest Appearances on Episodic Television
Janet0312 replied to TopBilled's topic in General Discussions
The Wild, Wild West had a number of old timers on the show. Boris Karloff, Agnes Moorehead to name a couple. -
Ain't nobody unglier on the silver screen that Frank Lacteen and Ted Billings.
