I'm 19 and have been watching old/classic movies since I was about 8. I remember when they introduced TCM and being really happy about having another channel to choose from (along with AMC). Mercy

bansi, I enjoyed reading that. Thanks! I also love their intro to the films in the morning "Sunny Side of Life" (love the song too, "Look For the Silver Lining", and I believe that's Chet Baker we hear singing it). And of course the wonderful intro the evening films that ends with the recreation of Edward Hopper's "Nighthawks". I've been watching these things since I was 10 and I love 'em. Mercy

Yes! DEAD OF NIGHT is indeed the film! The ventriliquist plot is coming back to me now. Thank you very, very much! FOUR DAUGHTERS sounds promising. It most likely is it. Thanks again professorecho, Mercy

Sorry! My apologies. **Spoiler** if you haven't read my first post (but also a clarification): I'm not sure that he dies at the end. After I had posted that I had realized I may be mistaken about that.

Hey sbchav63, thanks for the reply. I know of the story of Ten Little Indians (aka "And Then There Were None" ? ), and the plots are a bit similar, but I don't believe that's the film I'm thinking of since I don't seem to remember people keep getting offed one by one. But I'll definitely check it out as it's always good to double check. Thanks again! Mercy

Sounds familiar...but I can't quite put my finger on it.... A bit off the beaten track, but the plot sounds very, very similar to Wives and Daughters (among other plots in that book), which was made by the BBC two or three years ago. http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/masterpiece/wives/ It's a classic book, so the movie you're talking about may have easily been loosely based on it.

Sorry about the title there, had a freudian slip there (too much time on that consitutional history paper). John Garfield, JOHN Garfield. Mercy

Hey all, I'm looking for two, probably obscure, movies I saw a few years ago. The first, if I recall correctly, took place in a house where a bunch of guests are stranded for the night, and they start talking and accusing each other, and it gets more treacherous by the hour. I think it even flashes to people's backstories at times (quite a bit in the same style as "Flesh and Fantasy" and "The Bad and the Beautiful"). It might even have had a supernatural element to it. Was probably made in the 40s. Anybody know? The second starred, I believe, John Garfield (or someone who looked like him), and I seem to remember that he was a cripple, or back from the war, or maybe he was a guy with a really bad attitude, something that made him distant from others. Well he's in love with his brother's fiancee, or his fiancee leaves him for his brother, or his best friend he's really in love with doesn't love him, something like that. And the ending has him dying. Sorry I'm so vague on these details. I was about 12 or 13 (I'm 19 now) when I saw these, so I might not be remembering correctly. Mercy
