Stand And Deliver (1988) next-favorite movie directed by Tod Browning

Disorder In The Court (1936) was my favorite. Many hilarious moments, I especially liked the scene where James C Morton gives Curly the oath and Curly thinks he is "double talking" him.

Blondie In The Dough (1947) Movies! TV Network 4/10 Blondie decides to go into the cookie baking business. A weaker late entry in the series, now at #21. Dagwood also takes a correspondence course in radio engineering. He is fired again by Mr Radcliffe when he louses up a deal with the owner of a radio station. Hugh Herbert appears as a scatterbrained head of a biscuit company which is also one of the sponsors of the radio station. Your enjoyment of the film may rest how funny you find the giggling Herbert, I was never a fan of his so I did not find this to be one of the better Blondie movies.

Interesting question, I haven't seen many Peck westerns, but several of Wayne's. I thought I would compare when they played a similar role, the western outlaw. The Gunfighter vs Stagecoach. Then I realized their characters have the same name, Jimmy Ringo (Peck) and the Ringo Kid (Wayne). Wayne is an outlaw falsely accused of a crime and looking to avenge his father and brother's death, so he seems to be OK with his reputation as a tough guy not to be messed with. Peck is a world weary character who is tired of the fast gun reputation and is looking to get out of that life. Both were excellent, but I give the edge to Peck since his character was more complex and his performance more subtle.

I like to give a little explanation on why I liked each one, rather than just list them. Sometimes I just do 5, but no more than 10 since I am too lazy to type that much. One Peck film I did not like was The Boys From Brazil, he was badly miscast as Nazi doctor Josef Mengele, and this film has some of the most laughably bad dialogue I have ever heard in a major film.

It must be over 30 years since I have seen it, can't recall anything about it. I only saw it because I was looking to see a lot of Oscar winning performances, since Dean Jagger won supporting actor that year.

Here are mine in chronological order: 1. Keys Of The Kingdom-he was great as the priest working as a missionary in China. It goes through several decades. 2. The Yearling-excellent as the father with a sensitive son ,a cold wife and a baby deer. 3. The Gunfighter-he was tough and sympathetic as the weary former fast gun forced into action by young punks. 4. Roman Holiday-shows a flair for comedy and great chemistry with Audrey Hepburn ,my favorite scene is at the Mouth Of Truth. 5. The Man In The Gray Flannel Suit-WWII veteran is now a successful businessman, he seemed the perfect incarnation of the 50s husband and father. 6. Cape Fear-he was a great hero opposite psycho Robert Mitchum. 7. To Kill A Mockingbird-the one he will be most remembered as the dignified lawyer, he brings quiet strength to this. 8. Mirage-a striking suspense film with Peck as amnesiac involved in twisty plot. 9. Arabesque-a comic spy thriller with a loose as a goose performance from Peck, really a kick to see it. 10. The Omen-the only Peck film I saw first run in a theater, he was completely convincing in a movie about the Anti Christ. What are yours?
