Except, as I noted, he said BERKley Square. BURKley Square.
Not BARK, which is what dogs do.
Ah, so Ben was wrong.
You are right.
I misread your original post.
-
I want to see her role in the remake of Of Human Bondage, and The Legend of Lylah Clare because it sounds so campy.
Ah yes! Good campy fun!
-
MADAM "X"?
I prefer the best selling BRAND name!
For some things the generic brand just will not do.
-
One of this year's summer stars is a New Trier High School alum.
Go Trevians!
-
Did I hear my friend Ben M. pronounce Berkeley Square not as Barkley Square but as Berkley Square? I think I did.
That's okay, Ben, I forgive you.
Love that movie.
Actually, Ben was correct.
-
One of these days I hope they'll honor Debbie Reynolds by showing GOODBYE CHARLIE, which I consider one of her best performances
That movie was remade as SWITCH with Ellen Barkin, right?
-
Holden,
Thanks so much for posting the schedule :-)
While there's no Errol (it's okay, I can "make" my own on one of the days I'm not interested in), there's plenty that I'm interested in:
Gene Tierney, Olivia de Havilland, Teresa Wright, Michael Caine, Fred Astaire, Katharine Hepburn, Ann Margret, Groucho Marx, Joan Crawford, Robert Mitchum, Vivien Leigh, Debbie Reynolds, Ingrid Bergman!
While I'm not the biggest Marlene Dietrich fan, her later movies (Touch of Evil and Witness For Prosecution) intrigue me, so I may need to check her out.
Excited for August!
The Olivia de Havilland movie I'm most excited about is HUSH, HUSH, SWEET CHARLOTTE.
I love Agnes Moorehead in that movie

Oh, man! Michael Caine in the first week.
Ipcress File, Get Carter, Wilby Conspiracy.....
My collection needs these beauties.
Yes, I was excited to see Michael Caine was given a day.
I was hoping ALFIE would air, but, yes, there are still a lot of great Michael Caine movies being shown on his day.
-
I recently purchased All Fall Down: The Brandon deWilde Story by Patrisha McLean, published by Maine Authors Publishing.
I'm very much looking forward to reading it.
The book includes a lot of great photos.
The author was able to interview Brandon deWilde's widow, Janice.

I don't want to throw any cold water on this hot party, but I am pretty sure Time Warner Cable doesn't have any involvement in TCM, they are only a cable company. Time Warner is what controls TCM and they are not merging because they turned one down earlier. That is why they did cost cutting.
So, this merger has nothing to do with TCM, you can still see North By Northwest at the regularly scheduled times, lol.
It is worth clarifying that Charter Communications has acquired Time Warner Cable, not Time Warner Inc.
TCM is owned by the latter corporation and despite the overlap in naming, Time Warner Inc. is no longer directly affiliated with Time Warner Cable. As a result, Charter Communications will be unable to exert any influence over the broadcasting practices of any Time Warner-owned channels (such as TBS, TNT, CNN, TCM and others).
So the OP's concern is basically a non-issue right now.
So this acqusition will do nothing to bring HOT SPELL to TCM?

So didja see it?
A few years back, I bought the 5 disc DVD set THE BETTE DAVIS COLLECTION: VOL 1, which had THE STAR on it. I watched it and was mostly underwhelmed, although the "making of" featurette that they included was pretty interesting. Throughout it, various critics and historians assert that Bette was thoroughly lampooning Joan Crawford (who at the time of filming was seen as a falling star herself, her big comeback film SUDDEN FEAR! for which she earned Oscar nomination number three had not yet been released.) Apparently Davis uses the line "bless you" numerous times in the picture, (those words were allegedly commonly used by Crawford when signing autographs for her fans.)
I DVRed it, but haven't watched it yet.
I saw it a few years ago ---Bette Davis's character's screen test where she plays the the role of the older sister as a flirty young girl stayed with me ---- so I'm looking forward to see if I enjoy it as much as I did the first time I saw it.

Thanks, TomJH, for sharing these excerpts from Basil Rathbone's autobiography.

You'd think. The spots were memorable because of his ickiness, imo.
BTW, it's Jared Fogle, and his net worth is $15 mil. Not bad for a negative ad spokesman.
I wonder if he was able to keep the weight off.
I don't think he's in the ads anymore.

When I was tweleve years old I saw Kim Novack in "Boys' Night Out" in 1962. I think it was a second feature because otherwise my buddy and I wouldn't have seen that type of movie. Anyway, I was infatuated with Ms. Novack and thought that she was the epitome of womanhood (at that age, that meant blonde hair, throaty voice and ample breasts). Went to see it two more times on my own and caught up with every one of her movies I had missed on the tube. "Picnic" made my hormones rage.
For the next three years Kim haunted my fantasies but I had taken my first date to see "The Adventures of Moll Flanders" in 1965 and when we held hands in the theater, Kim lost some of her charms.
Decades later I enjoyed her appearance on TCM no end, but I still envision her (and myself) as we were in '62.
Do you like THE LEGEND OF LYLAH CLARE?
-
Awww! I may have to put this photo up in my cubicle.
I love that film. I loves dogs and this film is definitely a tear-jerker.
Brandon deWilde is one of my favorites.
I love GOODBYE, MY LADY.
-
yeah, maybe for Shirley Booth's 100th birthday.
Shirley Booth is in HOT SPELL?
-
Green Acres was pretty funny. Oliver was
the only sane person in the whole place, surrounded by every type of looney
tune one could imagine.
That seems to be the premise of a lot of sitcoms.

Your drug-induced state was accurate. I watched the movie stone-cold sober and I thought it was amazing.
disco, roller skating, greek gods, neon, magic, gene kelly, gene kelly playing the clarinet, and olivia newton-john's great songs? What else could you want from a movie?
I've never seen the movie XANADU put I love the 2007 Broadway musical XANADU ---- which is best described as XANADU meets CLASH OF THE TITANS.
-
I'm still hoping to catch up with Josef von Sternberg's 1929 Thunderbolt some day. It stars George Bancroft and Canadian, Fay Wray.
I never knew Fay Wray was Canadian.
-
I definitely recommend The Star for this evening. It's part of the SOTM for Sterling Hayden but it's Bette Davis' film all the way.
Yes. Bette Davis is THE STAR.
Natalie Wood plays her daughter in the movie.
-
I recorded SO BIG to watch later.
I'm curious to see exactly what in the movie warranted the TV-PG rating.
-
Dunno...there is a resemblance, both physically and in acting style, so...maybe?
Tori Spelling's best role was Violet Bickerstaff on SAVED BY THE BELL.

Douglas Fairbanks, Jr is an actor that I discovered through TCM.
He was actually once married to Joan Crawford.
