I finally saw this after wanting to for years - it's available on DVD now (w/ a commentary by, among others, Gloria Stuart). I was actually kind of disappointed - lots of great moments and atmosphere - gloomy castle, dark and stormy night, wierd assorted characters but it just didn't add up to much for me. Sort of oddball occurrences for their own sake without much logic or structure.

Why don't you: a) search the TCM schedule
if you want to see either one so badly, rent or buy them from a video store.People likely aren't responding to your post b/c both films are readily available. This type of question is most frequently relevant to early talkie/silent films not otherwise available on home video.

Has anyone seen this movie?
It's a 1965 film starring Yvette Mimieux and Richard Chamberlain based on the novel by Betty Smith. I can't find it for sale anywhere and I haven't seen it on any schedules. However, this is my favorite book and I'm really interested in finding out more about the movie.

Hi everyone! I signed up in the beginning of Feb. and about 2 weeks in I found the "Genre Forums"
down below the other listings. I started posting there, but soon realized I was mostly alone & very likely talking to myself. (I do enough of that here at home)I thought maybe other folks didn't know about this also. So now you know - maybe check it out. Talk to you there, I hope!

While I was watching Audrey Hepburn lip-sync to "I Could Have Danced All Night" in My Fair Lady, I was thinking about the woman some people don't even know about - the one with THE voice. Mami Nixon also did Natalie Woods singing in WestSide Story and Deborah Kerr's in The King & I. ( I've had arguments about the Natalie Wood thing.)
She has such a fabulous voice - just think of all the songs she sings in those three films!!!
I'd like some background on Ms. Nixon if anyone knows anything or where I might find out.
Also im sure there are other behind-the-scenes singers that dont get recognized, post them please if any come to mind. Thanks!

I finally got to see this wonderful film from beginning to almost end (I fell asleep during the great dance sequence at the end!) Can anyone tell me who the older woman is who is dancing with Gene Kelly in the first number? She was wearing a long black skirt & red sweater. I thought she did such agreat job dancing with Kelly & I was wodering about her background & if she did other movies. Thanks for any info!

That crime week TCM did, had people worried about me, as I woke up early and sat in front of the TV for hours on end. My favorite film noir, is the Big Sleep (which did feature during that TCM special)So I suppose Im unoriginal like that, but I think Humphrey Bogart, does empitomize the genre.

I agree with the Philadelphia Story, as one of my favorite endings. It's just so happy
"and we will go ahead with it Beautifully, as it was so Beautifully planned"
Another favorite is Arsenic and Old Lace--
just because the ?s the whole movie goes on you have this taxi driver waiting outside. Chaos all around, and still the taxi driver waits. Finally everything resolves and Still he'S waiting...
Cary Grant and just found out he's not insane--yet delivers the line:
"Elaine, Elaine, Where are you? Can you hear me? I'm not really a Brewster. I'm a son of a sea cook!"
and the cab driver, finally driven insane from all this, goes:
"and Im not a cab driver. I'm a coffee pot!"
but i think all time favorite, is You Can't take it with you, When they all start singing and playing pollywolly doodle. The final resolve of whether or not James Stewart WILL marry Jean Arthur, is put into smiles nods and hugs...and its all VERY happy

I have seen this movie a few years ago and cannot remember the name of the movie or any of the actors.
The movie is a black and white movie. I think it takes place in America. It is about a woman and her Irish family and a rich family that she is working for as a maid/chaperone for this families daughters. Her family works at the rich families mine or factory. The rich family has a son also. Him and the girl fall in love. The rich family also owns a dress shop. Eventually the dress shop becomes the Irish girls, later on in the movie. The Irish girls father ends up dying from an accident at the mine or factory. The Irish girl ends up being mad at the man she loves, because his family didn't make the mine or facory safe. The Irish girls father was also the head of the Union for the mine or factory. The rich boy marries someone he does not love. I guess years down the road his mother dies and the rich boy and his wife end up splitting up and the movie at the end leaves you to believe the Irish girl and him get together. The Irish girl was not treated like a maid. The family really liked her. I also think she has brothers. This movie is not "How Green was my Valley." I thought is was, but then I watched it and it is not. I hope you can help me. I would like to see this movie again if I can ever figure out what the name of it is.
Thank You

Hi,can anyone please help me?
There's a movie I've seen bits of on CM in Europe,Sweden.

And then he meets someone called Nina and they are supposed to marry but he's actually in love with the oldest sister Maria.
(They are like 4 sisters and the american,the Dean Martin look-a-like and his business partners all falls for 1 of the (italian) girls...)

I'm trying to determine the name of a movie made no later than the early 1960's in which a man winds up stranded on a beach. As the tide comes in, he is forced to retreat under a cliff that overhangs the beach.
When he gets there, he sees a vertical shaft leading upward. He begins climbing up the shaft with his back pressed against one side and his feet pushed against the other. The camera angle changes occasionally to provide a view of him from above.
I think when he finally reaches the top he finds some kind of Utopian society there. I thought for years maybe this movie was Lost Horizon, but when I finally saw the 1937 original I found out that wasn't it. If anyone knows what this movie is, please let me know! Thanks.

Sandra Dee deserves a tribute to her movies and life on TCM. She is an icon of the baby boomer generation who grew up with her films. She had a big influence on our lives thru her movie roles and she deserves to be acknowledged for her impact on the youth culture of the 50's and 60's.
Please acknowledge this beautiful and talented woman.
Thankyou

So other MGM movies have been shown on TCM.

if you want to see either one so badly, rent or buy them from a video store.
