  1. Sho' 'nuff! Calhern has never let ME down. Sepiatone
  2. If that was so, likely something like THIS might be playing in the background! Far OUT, man! Sepiatone
  3. I've been a fan of Taylor's before he joined the Stones. Was with John Mayall before that. Again.... Sepiatone
  4. Well, as someone who grew up hearing a variety of accents( Polish, Russian, Hungarian, Italian , Armenian and others due to my family and some friend's families and others) , the British and Australian accents are much easier to understand than most of those other pea soup thick Eastern European accents. But thanks to that exposure, I'm able to decipher most of what the "customer service" gleep from Mumbai is talking about. Sepiatone
  5. OK, I'll admit it isn't ALL British who sound stopped up, but here's an example of a couple....
  6. Still trying to think if there's a Powell performance I DIDN'T like. No luck so far. But---- Nobody mentioned MR. PEABODY AND THE MERMAID with Ann Blyth? Contains one of my favorite movie observations(which I did discover was true!) "50. The old age of youth, the youth of old age." Sepiatone
  7. Never really got into U.N.C.L.E. to begin with. So thanks for the warning. But otherwise always liked Vaughn as an actor. Sepiatone
  8. Well, what did THEY care? They likely weren't watching the flick from the backseat anyway. Sepiatone
  9. Actually Darg, what does irritate me about Alicia's accent is the factor that irritates me about British accents in general. Not talking TROUGH their noses, but rather sounding as if they all need a good shot of AFRIN to clear out what sounds like heavily clogged sinus passages. In fact---- As I recall, my high school dramatics teacher told our class that to achieve a passable British accent, we should stuff our noses with cotton and talk like that and do so until we can manage to sound that way without the cotton!

  10. But you do realize, as closely related as they are, their's a huge difference between a British accent and an Australian one, right? And somehow Alicia's Australian accent is more irritating to me than say, PAUL HOGAN'S And in the '80's through most of the '90's I got pretty much burned out on Australian accents and Irish music. Sepiatone
  11. 1. OK. Gotcha. 2. Clapton is a very skillful guitar player. But like any musician, has his own style which some might not care for. As a British blues player, I think he's OK, but I always preferred MICK TAYLOR. Sepiatone
  12. Notice too, using that side-by-side comparison, how much higher Ameche's forehead is compared to Brent's, and how the cartoon character's "widow's peak" is on par with Brent's. But I'll add again, that both AHERNE'S and DONLEVY'S peaks are similar to Brent's. And going again by the "recent co-starring" criteria, Aherne was co-star to Colbert in 1941's SKYLARK. And as this ccartoon was also from '41, is one more reason I went with Aherne. Brent hadn't co-starred with Colbert in any movie that year, or the year before. And as far as I know, might NEVER had co-starred with Colbert at any time. Sepiatone
  13. And what gives you the idea that I didn't? Sepiatone
  14. And some would say there wouldn't BE jazz if not for the blues. And supreme jazz alto sax man CHARLIE PARKER once said he judges how good a jazz musician is by how well he plays the blues. My asterisk is a bit rusty. Just what IS it you say every once in a while? Sepiatone
  15. I suppose that if you keep making references to your own posts, they're ALL going to be the dumbest posts you ever read. Sepiatone
  16. Maybe. But couldn't say which movie. But he's played a priest a couple of times(BOY'S TOWN, ('38 and it's '41 sequel) and THE DEVIL AT 4 O'CLOCK( '61). Sepiatone
  17. Wonder what's meant by that? Hanged by the skin of an actual SHEEP? or... By the sheepskin in his WALLET? Sepiatone
  18. How about a series of "Faith-Based" movies focusing on movies in which actors who are/were Catholics actually played characters who were Catholics and so on..... Or actors and actresses who played roles "against faith". You know.... Protestant actors who played Catholic characters, etc. Sepiatone
  19. I find Ms.Malone's accent a bit irritating at times, But I have a personal infatuation with her NAME so I give her a pass. I've never noticed any obsession with 21st century sexuality or homosexuality on her part, but I don't watch TCM 24/7, so all that must have taken place when I was watching the Detroit Tigers play some nights. Or between movies that Didn't interest me so I didn't watch anyway. Whatevs..... Sepiatone
  20. Maybe it's Chaplin, maybe not. One would reckon he'd be drawn too with his signature derby and cane. And ED... Which do you reckon is Lloyd? Sepiatone
  21. Haven't time at the moment. But do they plan a performance of the great score CARMINE COPPOLA composed for the big tour of the revival of Abel Gance's NAPOLEON? I saw the film when it came to Detroit with the DSO performing the score live as the film played and it was conducted by Carmine himself! And tell the truth, The FSO seems to be more than adequate for the task. Sepiatone
  22. I became smitten with her while watching the movie SERENDIPITY. And Kate romping around in tight leather was the only reason I sat through those horrid UNDERWORLD flicks Sepiatone
  23. Ann-Margret did reprise her role in that sequel. And it was 1972 when she fell TO the stage from an elevated platform some 20 feet or so high. Sepiatone
  24. I can only make out Laurel and Hardy(of course) and the Marx Bros. Jimmy Durante, Eddie Cantor but others there are hard to make out, and not sure who the cowboy is. Maybe Mix or Rogers?(Buddy, that is) Sepiatone
