Charlotte didn't see any reason for she and Jerry to ask for the moon when they already had the stars.

I wish that Susan Strasberg had been able to reprise her role as Anne Frank in the movie adaptation of the play. Millie Perkins is not very good in the role. She always seems to be acting. This excerpt from the review of the play speaks volumes about Susan Strasberg's talent and skill: "By some magic that cannot be explained, she has caught the whole character of Anne in a flowing, spontaneous, radiant performance. Anne is a girl--not the stage image of a girl--but a capricious, quick-tempered, loving maiden whose imagination is always running ahead of her experience. Whether that is Anne or Miss Strasberg it is hard to say at the moment, for they are blended into one being. It looks artless because Miss Strasberg has created it with so much purity from within."

On Monday September 7, TCM is airing George Lucas's THX 1138 as part of the Telluride tribute. I wonder if they'll be showing the director's cut of the movie.

Wow, that's Mary Tyler Moore! I'd never heard of the movie WHAT'S SO BAD ABOUT FEELING GOOD?

I never understood these lines from the song: "You've got your crust./I'm no object of lust./I'm just plain Sandra Dee." Crust?

Here's my favorite version of "You're The Top." http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oZ440hAuWFA I wonder if that's really Streisand's hand turning the pages?

And also of Sally Fields?

One movie that's waiting to be made (and apparently will be made) is one that covers the entire story told in John Steinbeck's East Of Eden. The movie starring James Dean as Cal Trask only covered about a third (or maybe even less than that) of Steinbeck's novel. The movie is set to be written and directed by Gary Ross (probably best known for THE HUNGER GAMES) with Jennifer Lawrence starring as Cathy Ames (the mother of Cal and Aron Trask). Ross has indicated that his adaptation may actually be split into two movies.

Was Pat's gender ever revealed?

The movie also stars Jason Segel, who played Nick Andopolis on FREAKS AND GEEKS (a great TV show that lasted only one season).

Haha! Good one, Bogie. I remember last month someome posted their displeasure that Batman was missing during Summer Under The Stars.

Yes indeed. But at least Marion Crane (Janet Leigh) was only flushing paper.

I agree with you about the ending of LLOYD'S OF LONDON with Tyrone Power at the window . Very powerful (no pun intended).

While I don't have any opinions on the 2 movies you've listed in your original post, TikiSoo, I think this thread is a wonderful idea---like a DVR alert.

I love that "mirror" routine with Lucy and Harpo Marx on that I LOVE LUCY episode.

There was a male character named Beverley Leslie on WILL AND GRACE. He was the nemesis of Karen Walker. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oifkmM7CCvM

replying meekly "I've never seen THE WILD BUNCH."

I found that part of the documentary amusing. I also recall there was an actual Southerner in a small role who was told she didn't sound Southern enough so she was supposedly "schooled" by a dialect coach.

Today was the unboxing of the new STAR WARS:THE FORCE AWAKENS toys ("Force Friday"). I admit I haven't watched all 4 hours of the global live stream event, but I enjoyed the piece on the droid BB-8. The toys are available at Disney Stores. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i3OkEpkwC4E

Has PENELOPE been mentioned yet? The movie starred Natalie Wood with costumes by Edith Head.

jakeem. I love "Uma Thurman" by Fall Out Boy, especially the way they sample that bit from THE MUNSTERS theme. (I was going to post this song in the Favorite Music thread, but I didn't want to deal with any snarky remarks from haters and meanies.)

Claire Bloom played Hera in CLASH OF THE TITANS, which also featured Laurence Olivier as Zeus.

I wonder why the US and Canadian schedule's would show different actors for the movies? That's odd.

RE: wearing white after Labor Day Here's a great clip from SERIAL MOM.

Is that a little known fact, Dargo?
