  1. Can a screen name like IHATEJOANCRAWFORD be far behind?
  2. Mongo, I think you accidentally placed one of your photos of Ms. Dunnock in the "Classic Movie Overplay" thread.

    FACES

    How about a thread called LEGS?
  4. There are no adults on this board. I'll try though. 1. Diana Dors 2. Donna Douglas 3. Douglas Dumbrille 4. Deanna Durbin 5. Doris Day 6. Dan Duryea and ... and ...
  5. Juke Box Rhythm was part of TCM's twist/rock/bop lineup. Jo Morrow plays a princess, and with her hair pinned up, you know it's only a matter of time before she lets her hair down (25 minutes into the movie). Frieda Inescort plays Morrow's aunt. Edgar Barrier plays an ambassador. Singer Jack Jones ("The Looovvvvvvvve Boat") plays a singer named Riff. Brian Donlevy and Marjorie Reynolds play Jack's' estranged parents. Donlevy is putting together a musical review. Jack wants to get into the show, and also get his parents to reconcile. He also seems to like the princess. He gets to sing a few songs. The final production number, "Juke Box Jamboree," is a real gas, man. Okay, so much for the plot. Ms. Inescort takes part in the dumbest scene in the movie. While sitting between Jones and Morrow in a cab, she removes her shoe. Jones hides it. After searching for all of 15 seconds, Ms. Inescort concludes the shoe has disappeared. Therefore, she must return to her hotel to get new shoes, letting Jones and Morrow go on without her. Ladies, I assume this happens quite often? Fritz Feld plays a dress salon owner, but he never gets to do his famous mouth "pop." Hans Conreid plays a junk dealer who wants to design a coronation outfit for the princess. He even quotes the Declaration of Independence. Johnny Otis sings "Hand Jive." For the young kids out there, this was also performed in the movie Grease. George Jessel, performing at a club called the Bop Inn, sings "Let's Fall in Love," and so does Morrow (or someone doing a voice-over). Producer Sam Katzman's wife has a cameo as a club patron who mistakes Jessel for Milton Berle. Ah, Katzman - now you know why this movie is the way it is. Les Nitwits perform "12th Street Rag." This is the first time I've seen them, and it will probably be the last. They appear to be a musical version of the Keystone Kops. Organist Earl Grant (my Dad has his records!!!) sings a song with his group, billed as the Earl Grant Trio. There are five of them. This shows the early influence of the new math. Later, they appear as a trio, thus demonstrating that people could still perform subtraction as late as 1959.

  7. The original question, first asked by rainingviolets 21, was *Name me a film where the title of the film never really happens, but no one notices ?* The question was answered, which led to discussions of Isaac Newton and Abbott and Costello, but it appears another poster wasn't sure it was ever answered, and so posed it again, which made it appear to be a new question, to which more posters responded, and so on and so forth. If I am correct in the order of things, I think it is my turn to pose a question, but unfortunately I don't have one at the moment, so maybe someone else can start. I believe I have now managed to confuse everyone on this thread.
  8. I saw it long ago, and you're right, it's complete insane.
  9. Here is the action-packed trailer for *Frogs*: ribbitt ribbitt
  10. At least throw in a set of ginsu knives, and maybe a DVD of The Twisted Brain.
  11. Yes, I did see that on the news, what little was available in Salt Lake. Before I even went, people were saying "don't bring home several wives." One of my colleagues felt that Temple Square seemed a lot like Stepford.
  12. It's probably Marie Wilson (the girl, not the guy). And why does everyone keep asking me about multiple wives? I think the Mormons did away with that long ago. Did I miss any fights while I was gone?
  13. *High School Tarts 5* Are they showing that again ???
  14. You're probably thinking of that Italian wrestler who was in a few movies.
  15. You can watch several episodes here: http://www.fancast.com/tv/The-Time-Tunnel/97784/watch-it/on-fancast
