Could not sleep early Thursday morning so I logged in around 3:00 am eastern time - and porn was the spam du jour. It disappeared about ten minutes later.

i assert firmly that even a rudimentary knowledge of the history and workings of CARS and GUNS is key to understanding a lot about life in general and America especially.
EDIT: i IMDB'D it. it was called HOT ROD GANG, the lead was JOHN ASHLEY and it was directed by LEW LANDERS- who (if I recall) directed one of my favorites of the 40's RETURN OF THE VAMPIRE.
Now that I remember, seeing his name in the credits is why i stuck around for a bit...he did a pretty fair job, it moved at a quick pace, but there were several comic relief scenes that sunk the movie.
EDIT EDIT: the music was good, albeit derivative of Jerry Lee Lewis, who was in turn pretty derivative of Chuck Berry.
It was interesting to see Senator Rand Paul in his singing debut:

At the height of his popularity, Sinatra was still short.

12:15 AM Hot Cars ( 1956)To pay for his son's operation, a man gets mixed up with a stolen car ring.
Dir: Donald McDougall Cast: John Bromfield , Joi Lansing , Mark Dana .
BW- 61 mins, CC,
I wish they would show the sequel, where a man gets mixed up with a stolen car ring to pay for his son's operation to become his daughter. I can't recall the title, but it was something like Hey, Dude, Where's My Stick Shift?

Hot Rod (1950)
Synopsis: A young man restores an old car behind his disapproving father's back.
Dir: Lewis D. Collins Cast: James Lydon , Art Baker , Gil Stratton Jr. .
Wow ... how big is his father's back?

Yes, she did know Errol Flynn.
Er ... right ... that's who I meant ... her husband ...

My next guess is Tim Holt. Besides "The Treasure Of The Sierra Madre", he was in "Stagecoach" and "My Darling Clementine".
You got him. Your thread.

Hot Rod Gang 9:30 pm Tuesday
John Ashley plays three parts, my favorite being Jackson Dalrymple, a bearded, beret-wearing heartthrob singer. Maureen Arthur sings something called “Choo Choo Cha Poochie,” which, I believe when translated, means “Hey boys, get a load of these headlights.”
The Ghost of Dragstrip Hollow 11:00 pm Tuesday
A stinker any way you look at it.
Listen for this stupidity early on, when a nerd tries to explain the principles behind his hotrod:
“You will be particularly interested in a theory I have evolved on the basic principles of locomotion, using of course the Euclidean system of mathematics and naturally interposing that with the Einstein theory of relativity. I have come up with proof positive of the transcendental nature of locomotion and combustion.”
It’s crap like this that makes kids hate math and science.

Here is Damita, as an ordinary, run-of-the-mill, typical stepmother:

Damita built a house next to Mar-a-Lago. I wonder if she knew what's his name ...

noon. The Woman Between (1931). With Lili Damita, an actress I know nothing about. Weird sounding film. A guy unknowingly falls in love with his stepmother.
With that title and that plot, it sounds like an adult film.

Let me guess, June winds up dead. Just once I'd like to see a horror film in which a sexually provocative woman doesn't pay the ultimate price for a lewd lifestyle.
By the way, I saw a clip of her dance in the bar and this is a woman who clearly deserves to live (pant pant).
1. Good guess.
2. True.

ps- for some reason, she's billed as "Julia" Adams, but I assume it's the same Julie Adams who worked at Universal, it sounds like her...
She was billed either way.

Is it Dickie Jones, later to be known as Dick Jones when he was on "The Range Rider" and "Buffalo Bill Jr."?
Not Dickie Jones.
This actor appeared in two classic westerns.

Guess it's time for a clue. This little guy grew up to play in westerns, but appeared in other genres as well.

Horrors of the Black Museum (1959) youtube
Michael Gough plays a mystery writer who arranges to bump off several dames to increase his popularity (and sales of his latest book about murder). One blonde (with ample cleavage) gets binoculared to death, while her red-headed roommate (with ampler cleavage) looks on in horror. Then Gough’s “ho” tells him where to get off, and she is done in by Gough’s assistant, using a hand-held guillotine – you know, the kind you can buy on QVC. By using a pair of ice tongs, Gough offs an old crone who runs an antique store. Well, the list goes on, but you get the idea.
Gough, as usual, is hammy over the top, but not nearly as bat-s*** crazy as he is in Konga. He is delicious to watch as he needles Scotland Yard, and vents his spleen at his assistant (Graham Curnow). June Cunningham, as Gough’s chick, has the smallest waist coupled with the largest hips I’ve seen in some time. She also treats the audience to about a 50-second dance in a bar. By the time she is done, every guy watching will figure out his sexual orientation.

Thanks, Lawrence.
Who is this cute little guy?

Scaramouchi
When his best friend Putin is killed, the French-Italian son of a nobleman vows revenge and goes into hiding as a communications director for the President of the United States. He somehow manages to find time to romance a few babes from FOX News before the final encounter with his arch enemy, the Marquis de Faux News. In the seven-minute climactic duel of tweets, Scaramouchi defeats the Marquis with several touchés, a flurry of bon mots, and a coup de gras. Tor Johnson has a cameo as Pierre Francois de la Brioski (who designed and built the sewers of Paris).

Correct on both.
#2 has the same first name as #3.
I guess that would make him Helmut Berger.
-
#3 is Helmut Dantine.
#6 looks like Vilma Banky, but I'm not 100% sure.

Big fan. Just a fun movie from start to finish, with lots of interesting characters. The old guy on the subway, the Ed Koch lookalike as mayor, Dick O'Neill going berserk ... where to start? Then toss in the pulsating score by David Shire. Hard to stop watching this one whenever it airs.

Better than Phyllis Diller naked.
True ... but that's a pretty low bar.

Hmm ... looks like my last edit was not saved, so I will add that #9 is Lotte Lenya.
And #1 is Emil Jannings.

The only reason I thought of this film was because I remember the case - it occurred in my home state.
