    Of course we know Allen's not interested in telling stories about women over a hundred. Even though he's approaching a hundred himself.

    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.

    Or maybe the girl can be 15 in dog years, which means she'd really be a 105 year old dog.

    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.

  3. 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. 

     

  4. 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.

    Looks to me here like what any well-dressed fugitive would be wearing while on a nice cruise at the time...

    (...people are SUCH slobs today while on an ocean cruise, ya know...or while traveling by air...or while, well, out in public ANYWHERE for that matter)

    ;)

     

    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.

    DANG YO!

    When you go all in on a film, you go all in on a film.

    I respect that.

    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.

    Yep. Good memory there, Vautrin ol' boy.

    Season-1 Episode-9 Broadcast 11-12-63: "Ticket to Alaska"

    (...so maybe it was during the summer...ya know, it's much warmer up there that time o' year, don't ya?!) ;) 

     

    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.

    Yeah, and besides, Fred Johnson (that would be the one-armed man's name) also seemed to like warm weather TOO! ;)

    (...and ya gotta go where the guy you're chasin' is at, right?!)

    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.

    :lol:Suitcases and satchels and windbreakers. Why is it wherever he traveled he rarely had to deal with winter weather?

     

    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.

    I have wanted to see this flick for years! Sounds like a guilty pleasure.

    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.

    You don't know Joe Turkel? He's a recognizable face from dozens of late 50's and 60's stuff. I'll always remember him from The Shining as the ghostly bartender, and Blade Runner as the designer of the replicants who has a meet-cute with Rutger Hauer. Turkel is still with us, too at 91 years of age.

     

     

     

    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.

  12. 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.
