LOL
Yep, gotta say Lou DOES have an uncanny resemblance to Irene, come to think of it!
(...though heuriger, I hope you know that try as she might, Irene could never figure out how to defense against the Wishbone Offense!)
-
Well, our friend Sepia DID offer up that little bit of info, remember?!
(...so why would I BE the "bad guy" here, HUH?!)
LOL
-
Yeah, and not only THAT, but I'll betcha CAGNEY was never a pain in the you-know-where whenever HE flew on commercial flights!!!!
(...and so that's TWO he has over THAT guy!!!)
LOL
-
Uh huh...OR I take it, a movie starring that "hot" Bing Crosby guy TOO, eh?!
LOL
(...sorry, but of all the movies I could count that I think of as "boring", this one would never come up on MY list, and I got me a feelin' there's probably millions of folks who would feel the same way as I do...and THAT'S 'cause of all those reasons I listed down there, and which given time I'm SURE I could come up with a dozen more...nope, sorry, "boring"?...NEVER!!!)

Yeah, but evidently rather quick with her hands, TOO!
-
>my top 10 male actors would probably be something like Lancaster, Mitchum, Kirk Douglas (even though I hate Bible epics and costume dramas), Pacino, Robert Ryan, Widmark, Robinson, Cagney, Bogart, and Glenn Ford or Gable.
Just one question here, Andy:
How the heck did the rather "blah" or "bland" Mr. Glenn Ford make your "Top 10 List" here, my friend?
Now, no offense, and while I have never had anything AGAINST the man and think he's usually fairly "adequate" in his roles...but c'mon now..."GLENN FORD"???
-
>And believe it or not I hate Casablanca.
Yeah, cb. I can certainly understand that. Ya see, while I've never personally been there, the people I know who HAVE really didn't have that much good to say about the place.
'Cause you CERTAINLY couldn't be talkin' the the MOVIE here, what with ALL the actors in top form(especially Bogie), the superlative dialogue, the excellent directing, and with the musical score being the perfect compliment to all the goings on.
(...nope, you CERTAINLY couldn't be talkin' about the MOVIE here, RIGHT?!)
-smirk-

OH! Well now THOSE I DID all donate to the simian exhibit at the L.A. Zoo YEARS ago!
(,,,and right before I started gettin' into that whole "Member's Only" jacket thing...ya know, there's NOTHIN' cooler than epaulettes!...well, at least I THOUGHT so for a while anyway)
-
Loved the "James Mason in Dublin" story, Dothery!
(...I suppose that's kinda like the ol', "Saaaay, didn't you used to be..." line, huh!)
-
Naah! Contrary to popular opinion, I NEVER have loaned ANY of my padded motorcycle jackets to any simians...nope, NEVER!
They're prone to stuff the pockets with bananas, ya know!
(...though I have to admit I DID once let one of my octopi slip two of his tentacles into the sleeves of navy blue sport coat)
-
>because if you're going to be pretentious, you'd better get your typing, spelling, and grammar right (not to mention your facts)
Ahem, excuse me here, MissW, BUT the "highfalutin ten dollar word" you're seeking here would be: "punctilious".
-
AND, I'm pretty darn knowledgeable about my hippopotami, my octopi AND the cacti I feed to 'em TOO!
(...after I of course remove all the needles from the cacti, which contrary to what you might expect, really isn't all that much of a bother...ya just always have to remember to wear gloves, THAT'S all!)
-
VERY good, my dear!
In fact, now that I've looked at that pic again, I do believe it's the latter of the two chimps, and thus I shouldn't have said "that little guy" with the hairy face 'cause I think it is "Phoebe".
(...and no, that wasn't part of the question...I just thought IF there might be any simians around here tonight, they might have felt "left out", THAT'S all!)

..and who ELSE there, Twink???
(...yeah, I'm talkin' about the little guy with the hairy face sittin' on Dave's desk there?...I know...do YOU?)
-
The Fountainhead
Jake in the HeartlandYeah, and just THINK... "The Onion" didn't even have to alter THIS trailer in order to make this FUNNY!!!
I mean, talk about your simplistic ARCHETYPES here, EH?!!!
LOL
(...btw...I sure hope those words "simplistic" and "archetypes" I just used don't fall under that there "highfalutin ten dollar word" category here, 'cause I MAY NOT be able to ever live that down if they ARE!!!)
-
Yeah, well, I suppose THAT'LL teach ya to not to use them there highfalutin ten dollar words around HERE anymore, HUH Sans!!!
LOL
-
LOL
Well MissW, at LEAST you don't pronounce the "w" in the word "answer", anyway...'cause THAT of course WOULD BE weird no matter WHERE ya live!
Btw, this reminds me of something that was goin' around the internet a few years ago in which there was a little "test" that would give you phonetic sound-alike multiple choice answers as to how one would pronounces certain words in the English language, and then after you finished, it would tell you where you were "from"...and it was pretty accurate as I recall.
(...at least I remember being somewhat impressed that it pegged me as bein' a Californian, anyway)
-
Yeah, I can see(and maybe "hear") that, John. Not a bad comparison at all.
-
True. One of the most recognizable voices ever in film, to be sure.
-
Nice write-up, Nora. Some good points there.
-
Well, THANKS for that, Sans! But NOW I gotta ask: Where the heck were YOU back in '74 when I needed you to help me make sense of that flick, HUH?!
(...uh huh...the Ukraine, THAT'S where, and NOT L.A....and a lot o' good it does me NOW, huh!!!)
-
>Of course, there is also just plain dopiness, as in when people say "nu-cu-lar" instead of "nuCLEEar".
Now MissW. I must inform you that NOBODY down here south of 49th says it THAT way since our Presidential election of 2008!!!
(...AND if they DO, then it would ONLY be in the location of a ranch situated near Crawford Texas!!!)
LOL
-
Sorry dark, but in MY case, I just remember walkin' out the Avco Cinema Center Theater in Westwood CA back in '74 and thinkin' to myself..."Now WHAT the heck was THAT movie supposed to be all about???"
(...though I DO agree with you about the "Bacall-esque" Ms. Rampling!...she ALWAYS smoldered in everything she was ever in, alright!)
-
>Thank you for the kind words. I am now waiting to see if Mr. TopBilled will come back on here and rebut any of my reply to him. May have to wait on that for awhile since he..... well we don't need to go there. Yes, I have read with interest your replies back to TB. Sorry about that. I guess what I should have done was paid homage to you before I launched into that long dissertation.
Quite alright, fx. No apology required here, my friend.
(...though I DO have to admit that I WAS startin' to think that just like our friend TB, you TOO might have fallen into that old trap of thinkin' that JUST 'cause I joke around a whole lot around here, that my more "serious" comments on the boards aren't worth YOUR time to peruse and respond to EITHER!!!!)

Now why would I be mad at you, Twink???
(...I was just pointin' out somethin' there, that's all)
