  1. Yes, well I have recorded it and several others I have not seen today and will watch it at another time.

     

    Re; Malton:

     

     

    The late Roger Ebert knew that film lovers paid attention to him even when disagreed with him.  Sometimes they would KNOW that they would love a film because he hated it and hate it because he loved it.

     

    So he was still a trusted film reviewer.

     

    As for L.M, well, when he worked for ET I could not trust anything he said, because his job was to sell movies of the hottest stars regardless of their quality.

  2. I have seen THE COMEDIANS and I feel the need to warn you.

     

    The title of the film is irony .  It is not a comedy and there is not a single line of dialogue that is funny.  It is actually a very depressing movie.

     

     

     

    Other titles you mention:

     

    Cleopatra  I have seen and again as you say, the behind the scenes events tend to overshadow this movie.

     

    I have not yet seen the Claudette Colbert version.

     

    I have seen Caesar and Cleopatra based upon the GBS play with Leigh as Cleopatra and Rains as Caesar and I have to say this is my favourite portrayal of Cleopatra that I have seen so far.

  3. HINT:  This actor who found The General while remodelling what was once Buster Keaton's home was famous for his ability to play both lead and supporting roles, heroes and villains, and his films air on TCM often.

  4. Misswonderly:

     

    The beginning of the movie as Welles imagined it with no credits was in fact restored after he died by Welles fans and historians with the credits at the end of the film instead.  This restored version did air on TCM some time ago.

     

    Hopefully this new version will be what TCM airs.
