Thanks for this version of Rikki Tikki Tavi. I have never seen it before.

Re: Dinner at Eight; Unfortunately, we will not be getting this in Canada. Barton Keys has just posed the changes for April in TCM Canada schedules and we will not get it here.

Yes it is, Lawrence. Audrey Hepburn tells George Peppard early on that he looks like her brother Fred and that she would like to call him Fred. So he is introduced to everyone as Fred. This included her agent played by Martin Balsam who from then calls him Fred Baby. Your thread.

Barton Keyes has just posted the TCM Canada schedule changes and sure enough The Spinal Staircase is being replaced. So I will not be able to see I on a larger screen. But I am glad that I did.

Great news, Classic! I will make my way over there today. And really, do not worry about the fact that you could not find box office information on many Peter lorre movies. The fact that you have a page up there at all on him is great.

I am sorry MissWonderly3 and forgive me. PLEASE. I didn't mean to forget.. I had no intention of doing that and I am dreadfully sorry if I missed out on the opportunity to be respectful. I will be more respectful in the future. I have just seen the list that Barton put up for April changes and I see that TCM will NOT be airing The Spiral Staircase in Canada, so I am glad that it was on Daily Motion and I was able to see it.

RATS! We don't get The Spiral Staircase! Many thanks to TCM_1 who alerted me to the fact that \I could watch this movie on Daily Motion. So I have finally seen it. I see we won't be able to watch Dinner at Eight. It has been years since I saw it.

James Mason

So you don't mean the films are lost, just that they were lost from the screen lovers who wanted them to go back to work? Either way: Buster Keaton was non-famous anymore when James Mason found a real print copy of The General when he was remodelling his home which had once been owned by Keaton. Gene Tierney had some health issues which kept her off the screen. William Powell dealt with the depression of Jean Harlow's death and his lung cancer before overhearing a fan overseas mention his name and found out that the boy was looking forward to seeing an ew William Powell movie and he went back to films.

West Side Story Next: Exhausted workers

Roddy macDowall

No don't assume this as I do not have a copy of this. I will add it to my list of to-see movies/mini-series. I have yet to see The light That Failed. Does it air on TCM at all? I have added it to my to-see list. Thanks for these suggestions.

I had recorded The Seven Samerai last year but had to delete it before I saw it. I am recording it again as it has been on my to-see list for ages.

Oh, Jennifer Jones would have been an interesting choice. There are some books which can't quite make it to the movie screen properly without giving away endings. The Woman in White by Wilkie Collins is a much more suspenseful novel than any version I have seen. There was a horror story I won't mention in name in case no one has read it yet where there is a killer loose and a woman is alone in the house with the killer who turns out to have been a man who was posing as a woman nurse to get into people's houses.

We brunettes like to hear about brunettes getting good roles. The 40s were wonderful for brunettes. And we must not forget an important redhead: My favourite film noir of all time: GILDA starring two faourites of mine Glenn Ford and Rita Hayworth.

From BREAKFAST AT TIFFANY'S: Cat! Cat! Meow! Audrey Hepburn picks up no-named cat and holds him in her arms between her and George Peppard while Moon River comes back on. (And no longer will she be referring to Paul as Fred)

What is your opinion of The Man Who Would Be King? I have heard it described as a fun buddy film, but I don't see it as touching the greatness of Gunga Din. I have only recently seen it for the first time and wish I had seen it at least once before Sean Connery became ill.

Bumping this thread up with another clue: The male lead answers a phone in a suitcase and then puts a lit cigarette under someone's show when he is sat on.

Most people who know me are shocked that I have seen this movie on the big screen. I had to see this because I am a Martin Sheen fan and he nearly died making the movie.

After the Thin Man?

Have you seen him in the Jean Harlow movie Personal Property from 1937? It was an absolute scream. It is without a doubt my favourite Robert Taylor movie.

THE BISHOP MURDER CASE (1930): This is a fun mystery once you get over the fact that Basil Rathbone is playing Philo Vance instead of Sherlock Holmes and that he is playing Vance instead of William Powell. I won't mention any of the other actors in the movie if you haven't seen it I do not want you to be swayed by the fact that certain character actors played bad guys. The Bishop reference can be many things and for a while I could not figure out WHY it was called Bishop Murder Case instead of BIRD or MOTHER GOOSE murder case. The Sherlock Holmes character is mentioned often. I started to laugh at the beginning of the film, because the first murder victim is named ROBIN and he is KILLLED WITH AN ARROW. Meanwhile, I am more familiar with Rathbone as a rotter than as Holmes and his most famous non-Holmes movie is The Adventures of ROBIN HOOD in which archery is a big theme. First time seen which I recorded on PVR after it was pointed out that it would air on TCM.

Night Song is fabulous. I am looking forward to seeing it again.

Hello, everyone. I am starting this thread to talk about an ancestor of mine and the adaptations of his writing. I am descended from the *brother* of Rudyard Kipling on my mother's side. I try to see every adaption of his writing. My favourite poem of his is "If" which he wrote for his son. It always makes me cry when I read it. My favourite movie of his work is Gunga Din. My favourite version of The Jungle Book is the animated Disney movie. What are your favourite Rudyard Kipling adapted movies and television?
