I think those stills are from the Night Gallery episode where Joan is blind but undergoes a procedure in which she will temporarily regain her sight for 24 hours or so. The ending is very ironic.

I think you're correct. Here is the film:

I am on the East Coast and just tried watching the West Coast live. No issues to report.

There is definitely a limit to how much you can upload from your computer. There appears to be no such limit to what you can cut and paste from another url. Also, if you use a free photo uploading site, like imgur.com, there appears to be no limit as to how much you can upload to that site and then copy here.

This is an above-average western. As you note, the climax is pretty good. William Farnum, in his next-to-last screen appearance, gives a spirited performance. Supposedly he was used as a technical consultant for the big fight scene between Gable and Crawford, although I suspect the filmmakers threw him a bone based on his long list of silent films, many of which often involved fistfights.

The ending was too ridiculous, with Crawford stumbling over Fredric March's body.

It takes too long to type "Each of the two large fleshy halves of the posterior part of the body between the base of the back, the perineum and the top of the legs."

Hollywood ran out of teenagers. All the teenagers had sex, then were killed off in the slasher films.

It would just be easier to say a**, but that doesn't work around here.

About as long as his tuchus.

I took the liberty of bold-facing part of what you wrote because I think you make an important point. An interesting experiment to try (and I've done this a few times) is to play a sequence from a sound film, then play it back with no sound and see if you notice anything you hadn't noticed before. I did this once with a scene from Casablanca, and was astounded to notice how Claude Rains was dominating a scene at Rick's with his body movements, something I had never noticed before. I also recall a scene from a John Gilbert sound film (can't recall the title offhand) where he was pleading before a judge. I thought the sequence was just awful. Then I played it back with no sound, and it was quite moving. Just this evening I was watching parts of Dracula on Retroplex, and decided that probably the whole film would have been better had it been silent.

You mean you didn't like Duke Mitchell's rendition of "Deed I Do"? Charlita was the only worthwhile thing to see in this piece of crap.

Friday, July 13: A pair of Allison Hayes flicks amongst some strange films. The Disembodied (1957) 8:30 am Hayes is married to a jungle doctor who is quite a bit older than she is. Pretty boy Paul Burke shows up. So what could go wrong here? Outside of Hayes doing some kind of half-a**ed voodoo dance, there is nothing else to see here. The Hypnotic Eye (1960) 4:30 pm Besides Hayes, there are some other good-looking women in the cast. Hayes utters the immortal line "If you like my beautiful face so much, you may have it!" Pay close attention and you will see that someone has used a sexy photo of Jayne Mansfield as a dartboard.

Same here.

I still wanna know how that guy went to the bathroom wearing all that s***.

That just happened to me as well. I use Firefox. After closing out the site, I reopened it and the movies loaded with no issues. I assume it was a temporary glitch, but who knows.

Wednesday, 2:45 PM: Zero Hour! Impossible to watch this movie now without cracking up and inserting lines from the film which spoofed it, Airplane! 8:00 PM: The Time Of Their Lives Excellent Abbott & Costello film, which really showcases Lou's acting ability (and Bud is pretty funny as the shrink). Binnie Barnes gets off some good wisecracks, and Gale Sondergaard is terrific as the medium. Great closing gag.

See, now this is how misunderstandings start. The host didn't say the roles were dark, she said the movies were dark. It was probably just poor lighting.

No, that word came out find. But when he said "packing," my ears screamed with pain.

Yes, I read that as well. Another source (can't recall it offhand) claims that Koster used her photo in his films. Guess we will have to pay closer attention when those films air. There is an interview with Ms. Moran on youtube, which I haven't seen yet. It appears to be from the 1970s or possibly early '80s.

I was just reading her obituary in the L.A. Times, and discovered that The Mummy's Hand was her least favorite film. She was quoted as saying that the movie was "probably the worst picture I ever made ... a lousy picture." You and I (and I'm sure a multitude of others) would beg to disagree.

No, someone complained about the title, so the film is being reissued under the name "Darned Pinstripers."

Starring Michael Bell (no relation to Fred Bell)

Tuesday, 10:15 a.m.: Twenty Plus Two (1961) I've seen this, and have no idea what the title means. Confusing detective flick with David Janssen. Worth watching just to see Jeanne Crain poured into the tightest black dress in film history. Spoiler: I kept waiting for her to pop out of it but no such luck.
