  1. The play was based on an actual, real life event too. -The play was partly inspired by an actual case in Edinburgh, Scotland in 1810, "Miss Pirie and Miss Woods vs. Dame Cumming Gordon." Two school teachers, Jane Pirie and Marianne Woods, were falsely accused of having a lesbian affair by a pupil, Jane Gordon. Under the influence of Jane's grandmother, Dame Cumming Gordon, the school's students were removed by their parents and the school was shut down. Pirie and Woods filed a libel suit against Dame Cumming Gordon, and won the case, but given the destruction of their lives and standing in the community, it was considered a hollow victory. God, imagine how embarrassing that must have been to live with a rumor like that floating around about you. Poor women.
  2. So I imagine there will be a Peter Fonda memorandum where TCM plays his movies but because of the SUTS it will be postponed for next month? usually they just get rid of the Silent sunday nd import and play it then.
  3. I second Alan Bates. He would have been a good choice.
  4. 1. Hard to be a God, Aleksey German, Russia 2. The Great Beauty, Paolo Sorrentino, Italy 3. Ida, Pawel Pawlikowski, Poland 4. Fetih 1453, Faruk Aksoy, Turkey
  5. A really good film. Peter is the "virtuous" antipode to Jane's cruel baroness who torments everyone. I really like that one.
  6. The Artist and le Havre were both definitely shown before. Love Among the Ruins from 2015 was also a "silent sunday" pick one time.
  7. I recall her saying she loves Le Samourai.
  8. Agree to disagree. It sounds like "Hiya Johnny" to me. Also from IMDB- https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0037059/goofs/?tab=gf&ref_=tt_trv_gf Incorrectly regarded as goofs It is often incorrectly claimed that an off screen male voice calls out "Hiya, Judy" (referring to actress Judy Garland instead of her character, Esther). The voice actually says "Hiya, Johnny". This refers to Tom Drake' s character, John Truett, who has been trying to catch the trolley and apparently just made it. As soon as the line is delivered Esther looks expectantly screen right but we do not see John until the end of the trolley song sequence. 10 of 10 found this interesting | Share this
  9. The guy her character likes on the train is named John Truett. The guy is talking to him saying "Hiya Johnny."
  10. This is a plot hole that exists in both versions of Lost Horizon. The movies stress that the Shangrila Tibetans are peace loving people who abhor violence and yet the hijacker kills the pilot and steals his plane in the beginning of each movie on the order of the High Llama.
  11. All the German ones are West Germany too.
  12. I watched the two films on separate nights. The tone of the second one is what I prefer because the first one seemed a bit slow. Here is Liv on the Emigrants btw. She gives her thoughts on the movies and Troell. I don't think the Indian attack scene is up on YouTube which is odd because I thought it was the most memorable part of New Land and would be the most discussed scene.
  13. A cash grab, reboot of Home Alone reminds me of this gag. What was considered a joke decades ago is now reality.
  14. If that is what he is upset about then that is different. Those posts are essentially just spam anyways. No real discussion or anything. If the Korean bots shilling foot cream or whatever qualify as spam then the others should too.
  15. TCM has aired movies from the 2010s before. Le Havre, Love Among the Ruins, Human Voice. A few others too that I can't recall right now. They even aired a documentary about Bergman from 2012 yesterday.
  16. "Classic" is an arbitrary distinction. What is "classic" to you may not be to someone else and vice versa. It is not Turner Studio Era Movies.
  17. Before I joined, I read a few threads to get an idea of how discussion on this board worked and I remember reading a thread where someone didn't want TCM to play anything made after 1960! Limiting discussion based on year really seems a bit arbitrary. I think most who have interest in joining this forum will naturally gravitate towards discussions of certain stars, studios, movie years, etc.
  18. Okay a bit off topic but ya know, years ago one of my teachers looked exactly like Liv Ullmann, I kid you not. Imagine the picture on the right but with brunette hair. She was also one of the kindest people I've ever met.
  19. Of that list, Gosta Berling would interest me the most depending on the extras in it. I like Garbo.
  20. Reading the thread title, I assumed they were going to be my age.
  21. New Land is much better imo. It covers the brothers of Von Sydow as they seek to become gold prospectors and includes a very graphic fetus murdering scene involving natives.
