You're bad, James. My mother said she would always just say when looking at an infant's photo, that resembled J, Fred Muggs, "Well, that sure is a baby!"

Gus the Fireman, Sepia??? Why didn't I think of that. Yep, he always looked like he had Progeria from birth!

Well, "cute" is a very strange word to use to describe Streisand. Sounds more like someone with a poor vocabulary than anything else. I have always felt that for some strange reason, Streisand seems drawn to make movies wherein she is finally told by the male star that she is "beautiful" above all other qualities. Probably goes back to some childhood issues?

One of these days, Down....POW!

No, Honeybunny that is the one "p" Sam Shepard not Doctor Sam Sheppard. Easy to confuse.

Any movie which stars both Yvette Vickers AND Bruno VeSota has to be a winner!

What a great photo, Mr. Kimble! This brings to mind something that I've been thinking for a long time. Alan Arkin looks like the doppelganger for Harpo Marx doncha think? But two photos beside each other, with them both bald and I'm sure you will see it. And they both have that cute smile too!

I will go with Dolores Del Rio on this one. Great bone structure can hold back the years apparently.

I watched "Kind Lady" with Ethel Barrymore and it was such a pleasure to see Maurice Evans as the really nasty bad guy. I mean he is always so nice and plays great guys like Rosemary's friend, Hutch [?] in RB and in "Bewitched" on tv he is just a darling, and seeing him in all the Shakespearean parts where he is noble and kind was so diametrically opposed to seeing him as this dastardly villain. It was truly was eye opening as to his talent, of which I was aware but now I am even more impressed.

I got a bit lost in this thread but all the talk about Holden got me to wondering if anyone knows why Humphrey Bogart supposedly could not stand the Golden Boy. Anyone know?

I love that movie AWUTI and Cassavetes was a very good director. But he will still always be Guy Woodhouse [?] to me from "Rosemary's Baby" and I wish I'd seen that certain gesture he made in "Luther" which so impressed the head warlock!

Hey TB, thanks for reminding me about "Nightmare Alley". Who can't dig a movie about carnies and this one with Power as the Geek is the best. I always watch to see antiquated stage actor Taylor Holmes, who is wonderful. He was the father of Phillips Holmes and also voiced the King in a Disney animated film, maybe "Sleeping Beauty"?

I knew you never killed your wife, Richard! I bet that Sam Sheppard did it!

Wow, this is mind boggling, Dargo! Good to hear that Steve got his way since I think it was George Cukor maybe who would not let W.C. Fields add a pool scene to the bit when he played Mister Micawber in "David Copperfield", since it was not originally in the Dickens novel. What a loss!

And when the detective, like Sam Spade has to put a watch under someone's tire to show when they left the scene of the crime, even the watch must be accurate to the time period. So true so true, Limey!

When did the topic issue change to Oscar winning drunken set pieces, Dargo? My favorite is the one where the catchphrase is "T'ain't a fit night out for man nor beast!"

Well, then I'd probably go for March in ASIB! Thanks, FL! Since Emyln Williams originated the role on stage in "Night Must Fall" I would have preferred seeing his version onscreen than Montgomery's. They say it was quite superior.

I knew the third one but was not aware of the others, but now I shall add them to my list to watch for, Film Lover!

Love it! Thanks, Jakeem!

So, the Great One wasn't great, DGF? Maybe Alice needed to be there to knock some sense into him.

Somebody who had free tickets to a revival of "Brother Sun Sister Moon" made me go to see it. Now, the kicker was that the reason the film was free was because the joint never told patrons what movie they were going to show, so one was literally in the dark till the credits rolled. Of course if I had only known the title, I would have been unavailable but never thinking it could be a film that awful, I had agreed to go and stupidly let my friend drive. I wanted to leave so badly! But I was stuck since I had not driven and had to watch that abomination for hours. A valuable lesson was learned. No freebie is worth it.

I kind of don't like either. I usually like Montgomery but in this case would have preferred seeing Emyln Williams in the part. And I can't pick Tracy either. Who else was in the running?

I remember reading long ago that in the film "The Virgin Queen" there is an extra wearing a wrist watch. I always mean to look for it but get involved in the movie and forget. But there is nothing I love more than seeing something that does not belong in the scene like a boom mike or shadows, which I relish. To this day I keep trying to figure out why the curtains keep moving in Scotty's apartment in "Vertigo" but it is still a mystery. It is fun to spot things like this in films you've seen many times, since you can ignore the frontal action and watch for silly mistakes, either of incorrect time period stuff or out and out goofs. I loved the scene, in I think "Amelie" with the fly on the window behind the movie. It is always enjoyable to see such true to life moments. Things which are anachronisms might be the most delectable, since the makers of the film surely had lots of time to find out if there were telephone poles in London when the film was set or it the Maserati in a scene is of the right vintage. But for whatever reason many mistakes seem to get by. If you have some you cherish, please share!

I bet you also love movies about Blad the Impaler, DGF?

I guess I was right in not joining, TB since I do not approve of day to day communication. Just too much contact with humans for my taste.
