"Barbra Streisand" by Duck Sauce
The lyrics are a bit complicated, but luckily they appear on the video below:

Not as much fun as he would've had with "Sprocker-Man."
Oh, he would've ended you for that....
That was totally accidental on my part.
Yikes!
I've corrected my original post.

Thanks! I didn't realize she was married before Gig Young!
I wonder why Elizabeth couldn't find the right man to be married to?
After her divorce from William Asher, Elizabeth Montgomery lived with an actor named Robert Foxworth for over 20 years.
They legally married in 1993, two years before her death.
Here are interviews with Elizabeth Montgomery and Robert Foxworth from 1992.

Apparently there was an album released containing the dialogue from the movie WHO'S AFRAID OF VIRGINIA WOOLF?
At one point it was available on YouTube, but it has now been removed.
This takes "soundtrack album" to a whole other level.

Is anyone planning to see the Fathom event showing of PSYCHO on the big screen this month (September 2015)?
TCM has been airing the promos for the event.

With the 2015 Summer Under The Stars festival coming to a close, can anyone count and post the total number of stars featured in August to date. since the festival's inception in 2003, as well as any other fun statistics about the festival (such as the number of times each star has been showcased), please?
Before 2003, was there a single Star Of the Month in August as in other months ----except for the salute to the Oscars in February?

I really hope Sprocket-Man is okay, and I genuinely mean that.
I wish instead of Microsoft spell check I genuinely had him living in my computer, abruptly informing me of my various grammatical and factual errors, then chiding me for them...maybe even delivering a small electrical shock each time I make one...
I feel like I missed a lot of interesting and amusing posts by not being on these message boards during Sprocket-Man's tenure.
I see the name referenced from time to time by other members.
I bet he would have had fun with Sally Fields.

not trying to start anything, but if you ask me spike lee is a token recipient. I bet alotta people wouldn't even know his name if they heard it while Debbie and Gena have name recognition spanning many decades.
While I'm not a big Spike Lee fan (I Ithink he's a talented filmmaker but I haven't seen many of movies) I think most people under 40 ---maybe even under 50-- would be more likely to know Spike Lee's name than would know Debbie Reynolds or Gena Rowlands by name.
They might know Debbie Reynolds as Grace's mother on WILL AND GRACE or Gena Rowlands as the old woman from THE NOTEBOOK

Going through the online program, I came upon this film:
Friday, September 18th
12:00 PM
B/W
102 min
Bastard, The (1968)
Dir: Henning Carlsen. Cast: Eva Dahlbeck, Gio Petré, Monica Nielsen.
There's no further information listed, but there's a related DVD ad below it:
BUY The Cats (aka The Bastards) DVD
In what would be one of her final roles, Rita Hayworth (Gilda) plays the alcoholic mother of two sons who are at war with each other over a case of stolen jewels.
Here's the problem: These are two completely different movies. The director is Duccio Tessari, and the primary cast members are Rita Hayworth, Giuliano Gemma, and Klaus Kinski. The only things they have in common is the year of release and somewhat similar titles.
Is it too much to ask that at some point before Friday, September 18th, we find out exactly which of these movies is going to be playing?
You should go with what's on the listing on the schedulle rather than the DVD ad that's linked to it.

Thanks for posting this clip!
I just saw it on TCM.

They've been doing the listing of the next three movies at the end of each movie with no audio during the entire month of this year's Summer Under The Stars.
I don't remember if it was done this way last year.
Just to add to my post, there was audio in the bits and the end of each movie listing the next three movies during Summer Under The Stars, but it was only music.
There was no announcer speaking the titles and making a comment about the movies.
If the voiceovers are still gone, maybe it is a budget issue as others have mentioned.

I was saying boo-urns.
The Hans Moleman production of "Man Getting Hit By Football" is available on YouTube, but the Oscar-winning version with George C. Scott is not available.

Two of George C. Scott's wives were in THE LAST RUN with him.
I think he was married to Colleen Dewhurst at the time but would soon marry Trish Van Devere.

Are you SURE it was a Smurf and not one of THESE guys invading your nightmare last night, Holden?...
(...I know THESE guys always kind'a freaked me out whenever I'D see 'em do that act of theirs on TV back in the day, anyway!)
I thought it was a Smurf, Dargo.
-
I know, right?
I really think that was the beginning of the end for the show.
I think a Smurf may have invaded my dreams (or should I say nightmares) last night.

Here's a link to Rolling Stone's 25 Greatest Soundtracks of All Time, published in 2013.

I agree that the BOOGIE NIGHTS soundtrack is very good.

They still use the term "Original Soundtrack Recording" to mean the film's score, not just songs. Most films don't have songs, they have orchestral scores. Although, most aren't what they once were, that's for sure.
Are you sure record labels don't use "Score" now for what you're referring to?
The movie TWILGHT: BREAKING DAWN PART 2, for example, had both a soundtrack album and a score album.
I admit that I haven't listened to many score recordings.

MURDER ON THE ORIENT EXPRESS (1975) has to be one of the most watchable movies ever made. I've seen it 30 times, and I'd sit right down and watch it again.
In defense of Finney- I think he actually captures one of the most important aspects of Poirot- which is that he is so cerebral, so inside his own head- that he comes off as a self-involved, peculiar little weirdo. Combined with the fact that he has something like a 10-minute long speech that is ALL HIM in a crowded little room, performing in front of the best actors there were still living at the time, and he makes it work and I think it's an utter triumph of a performance.
ps- the real unsung performance in ORIENT EXPRESS is given by Lauren Bacall- who is really at the heart of the story and plays something of a dual role. Bergman's good, but if they really wanted to toss an Oscar at a legend for something, they missed a real chance with Bacall in this movie.
I agree with you about MURDER ON THE ORIENT EXPRESS being a highly entertaining movie and one that I can watch again and again.
Albert Finney as Poirot singing "Animal Crackers In My Soup" is a favorite moment for me.

Let me know what ya think. When I saw it about 40 years ago I thought it was a right stinker.
I've watched a bit of LITTLE MURDERS and like what I've seen so far.
I'll try to remember to post again after I've seen the entire movie.
One thing that struck me is the female lead Marcia Rodd (someone I'm not familar with) sounds a lot like Liza Minnelli.

Actually, the original term "soundtrack" meant the music and/or songs from a movie or even TV shows eventually. This was in the days of LP vinyl as someone mentioned. May have been a misnomer, but that's what they were called. Still have lots of LP 'soundtracks," as well as CD's.
Yes, over the years it appears the use of the term "movie soundtrack" by the record labels changed to refer to an album of songs from the movie.

A new 15-second teaser for STAR WARS: THE FORCE AWAKENS has been posted on Instagram.
It appears that Kylo Ren's opponent in the snowy forest lightsaber duel is Finn (played by John Boyega).

Has TCM ever aired TEOREMA, perhaps as a TCM import?

Speaking of Robert Montgomery and "psychopaths" ; he plays a good one in RAGE IN HEAVEN, part of the Ingrid Bergman day coming up (Friday into Saturday morning). I don't think that a lot of people know about this film, it is a good one.
According to Elizabeth Montgomery, at one point Robert Montgomery (her father) was considered for the role of Samantha's father on BEWITCHED.
This casting was decided against and the role was played by English actor Maurice Evans.

Vincent Price chose to receive a flat fee for his work on "Thriller" instead of a percentage of the song's profits.
He regretted his decision.
