  1. To be fair, Woody will be "only" 84 this year, so he's got a while to go. From the reviews I've read of his recent movies, I think the one movie a year is probably a bad idea and he should take a little more time between films.
  2. Some drahma, some laughs, a little selzer down the pants.
  3. I don't know if the other actors would go along with that. They don't like to be upstaged by animals and kids and here you sort of have both in one character. Could be a problem.
  4. Bathroom Peeping Tom Stuns Retirement Home Employee by Dear Abby, written by Jeanne Phillips originally known as Gabrielle Lipshitz, first written by her mother Abigail Van Buren, before known as Lydia von Krumholz. I finished God Bless You, Mr. Rosewater by Kurt Vonnegut a little while ago. I like the covers of the Vonnegut novels and was thinking of buying a number of them before the publisher changes the cover art. I'll see. P.S. Remember the Beatles had only seven years to be on the charts.
  5. I think the Woodman should make a film about a 65 year old guy who has sex with a 15 year old girl, but the girl thinks he's really 70. Just a thought.
  6. I recall being slightly disappointed when signs advertising IRAs began to pop up outside banks. My favorite freedom fighters being "turned" into a retirement plan. But I've gotten over it.
  7. Heck I just enjoy any old-fashioned colonialism movie where the limeys or, less often, the frogies get the **** beat out of them or the natives stomp them until their guts spill out. Now that's entertainment.
  8. My local paper had a website that became very censor happy so one techie guy just started a new non-censored website. It was never as popular as the original, but it's still around.
  9. That's what killed off the British Empire. The taboo came off the word bloody and before you could say John Bull the sun started setting.
  10. Captain in your line of work have you ever considered...life insurance. My company has a policy that would be right up your alley. Very nicely dressed. That reminds me of all the times Kimble had to take off wearing street shoes. This is one guy who should have been casually dressed. I'm pretty much a slob, well make that a casual dresser.
  11. If only Rainer hadn't. But a director who puts out two or three films a year is entitled to a mediocre one every once in a while.
  12. Yeah, I'm pretty sure I saw the AIP logo just before the film started.
  13. Debbie Harry is too talented to be Monroe's daughter.
  14. Now if I could only remember what kind of clothes they were wearing in that one. About twenty years ago there was a cheap jack local TV station that was broadcasting The Fugitive but the reception was so bad that parts of episodes or sometimes even whole episodes would disappear from the screen. I finally caught up on YT with the program. Well done, YT.
  15. Damn, it's colder out than a one armed man's stump. Yeah, Kimble was lucky that Johnson didn't head up to Alaska. Though wasn't there one episode where Kimble booked passage on a boat headed to Alaska. Brrrrrr.
  16. He's already in a bad place, why make it even tougher with cold weather. No wonder he was always working. Had to replace all the stuff he threw away or left behind.
  17. That's probably the most charitable way to describe it. It is entertaining in that low budget, unintentionally funny way. And I suppose a low budget goes with the Depression era setting. And at only 81 minutes you're not spending a huge chunk of time.
  18. Have to admit I didn't recognize the name, though on seeing the photos he's a little more recognizable. I guess he's just never been on my radar, though that's no fault of his.
  19. The large ears were part of an interior antennae system that Kimble used to find good looking female guest stars every week. Richard must have spent a fortune on suitcases and satchels.
  20. For fans of The Day the Earth Stood Still, Fox Movie Channel or whatever it's called now has run it two or three times in the last few weeks.
  21. Querelle is the dullest Fassbinder film I've seen. At least he could have given some Fox and His Friends level nudity to pep up this thing, but it doesn't even have that. Some stiff ***** in action or even Jeanne Moreau taking it up the rear would have been an improvement. Highly stylized sets and lighting will only get you so far. I hope no one is turned off on Fassbinder due to this misfire.
