  1. ...we see him putting on his coat...he already had his coat on when he got into the limo..

     

    One has to wonder if people caught that back then considering they probably only saw the movie 'Once'.

     

    No wonder everyone is confused at the end of the movie, it is a bit of a let down when you can't figure it out, unlike A STOLEN LIFE (which was a 'piece of cake', compared to PALM BEACH STORY, but you fell asleep because you were bored. :)

  2. RE: Why So Many 2 Hump Camels in Arabian Movies

     

     

    If I was a producer knowing that camels had to ridden by inexpierenced extras, I would assume the 2 hump would be safer to ride.

     

    I would assume that "Inexperienced Extras" would NOT be used and would think in order to ride a camel (without a guide) would require quite a bit of experience.

     

    In the same way that I would assume producers would not use "inexpierienced extras" to ride Horses !

  3. SORRY, WRONG NUMBER

     

    ....when you see that shadow of the killer come up the stairs...OMG, I feel the same way everytime I see that movie and I see that shadow. It certainly does not 'hypnotize' me, but it Does send my heart razing !

     

    Even though we Know what is going to happen, it is still Scary everytime. I feel it is because of Stanwyck's brilliant performance as she is sacreaming into the phone that "he is coming up to kill me", it is soo convincing !

  4. Are these films hypnotizing ? Is there really that much power of suggestion up on the screen ?

     

    No, I do not believe that films hypnotize us. If that were the case, I am sure we would have had documentation or proof of that happening by now.

     

    As far as "power of suggestion", as you mentioned, everytime you see someone drinking tea or having a glass of Wine, you feel the need to get a corkscrew. That "power of suggestion" in the movies works exactly in the same manner that a 'commercial' does !

     

    Think about it, how often do we hear people saying that everytime they see a Big Mac advertised on TV (especially up close), they have a yankering to go out to Macdonalds or at the very least, it makes them hungry !

     

    Theres your proof of "power of suggestion"!
