I don't know if it's a hit or miss, but tomorrow I'm recording "Immortal Love" (1961), which is oddly titled once you hear the subject matter. I'd never heard about it until I saw it on the schedule, and apparently it's about a man who is away at war, and a crippled man who wants the soldier's girlfriend and rapes and impregnates her in order to get her. He also lies to her about about the soldier being killed. The descriptions read that the couple (rapist and victim) suffer through three decades of bad marriage and an unhappy brood of children, and that the couple torment each other. I don't know how I'll feel about this until I see it I suppose, but I can't imagine me having any problem with a rapist being emotionally tormented and punished for thirty years by his victim. I can't imagine why the rapist would want to torment the wife though, after all he lied to her and raped her and basically stole her life from her. I guess that is why films from different times and cultures are interesting.
I just saw this one. Not really a "tear jerker" for me in the literal sense but yes, I did find it really depressing.

The daytime line-up is highly unusual - you've got, among others, "Kapo", which Susan Strasberg filmed aboard, "The Umbrellas of Cherbourg", which is ever-glistening and "Day For Night", which is forever-new.
I could swear I saw Lacombe, Lucien on the schedule. They might have changed it out for Kapo.

I really didn't expect anybody to care, and maybe I should have dragged this to the OT forum to begin with. It just seemed like a good example of how rough and ignorant some people have gotten in their discourse with the example of certain political leaders who they adore who have equally rough and ignorant discourse. And from the number of like minded comments you can tell this fellow is not alone. I actually responded in kind to his entire post using logic and staying away from insults of any kind. My comment went into moderation and - not surprisingly - he rejected my comment.
Many people are like that. You can just ignore them really. They'll just fight you if you question their (shaky) beliefs.

This one is a funny one and I can see how it won Best Direction. It makes me wonder if this film influenced Road to Morocco at all because they share a similar plot and some similar jokes.

I have an answer to the Fred MacMurray movie. It's "Where Do We Go From Here?", a 1945 movie in which Fred is transported through time to historical events. The musical number is "The Nina, The Pinta, And The Santa Maria". Here is a clip:
Now, in answer to the question from Princess, could it be Barrie Chase? She was an assistant to choreographer Jack Cole and she appeared in the chorus of several musicals before appearing with Fred Astaire in several TV specials. She also did non-musical roles. She was beaten by Robert Mitchum in the original "Cape Fear" in 1962, and she appeared in "The George Raft Story" with Ray Danton in 1961.
You guessed it. The longest number from a studio era musical film. I completely forgot about this thread and should have just answered sooner.
Sorry guys.

I will warn you that this guy is given to some colorful language. Especially in the comment section if you disagree with him.
K..... Good for him. He doesn't have to like it. Not sure why you're expecting us to care about some dumbazz's blog though.

So far, this year's 30 Days of Oscar programming has been very disappointing. There have not been two movies in a row that I've wanted to watch.
I like it. I just wish they didn't postpone silent sundays and Imports for one month.

maybe it was Walken. doan forget, he pushed michelle pfeiffer out a high-rise window in batman returns.
maybe reliving a fond moment huh? doesn't say a helluva lot for tim burton either.
I mean why would walken playing max schreck wanna do a scene like that given all the controversy at the time? was he saying to moviegoing audiences 'ha ha we hollywood celebrities out here can do whatever the **** we want even heinous acts of murder. we doan obey the normal laws of civilization like you peasants hafta'.
I think you have a very "unique" interpretation of that Batman scene.
