  1. Tonight's film is the 1931 Frankenstein-
  2. Well even if he doesn't, make him watch it anyways! That'll teach the schtootze for not programming Hot Spell!
  3. The Hunchback of Notre Dame should have won more Oscars in 1939. I like that movie even more than Gone With the Wind.
  4. Yeah, plus it's really hard to imagine someone turning to TCM and waiting up until the middle of the night for Garbage Pail Kids. This has to be the most "what were they thinking?" schedule choice.
  5. 1. Run, Lola Run, Tom Tykwer, Germany 2. The Celebration, Thomas Vinterberg, Denmark 3. Ringu, Hideo Nakata, Japan 4. The Idiots, Lars Von Trier, Denmark 5. After Life, Kor-eda Hirokazu, Japan I have also seen the anime Cowboy Bebop which is from this year. From the foreign editions- Central Station, Walter Salles, Brazilian edition **** Amal/Show Me Love, Lukas Moodysson, Swedish edition Eternity and a Day, Theodoros Angelopoulos, Greek edition
  6. Blood for a Silver Dollar Next: Edmund Purdom
  7. My Darling Clementine Next: Gian Maria Volontè
  8. Of the W&W films that were scheduled, I think my favorite is the Cuckoos. W&W's Vaudeville-ian style was a bit antiquated even for the 1930s but I think they shine through in this one. My favorite gag is probably they try to drink the beer at the border crossing. A few of the scenes at the hotel aren't the most pc but nothing too bad. I also like that TCM showed a copy with the two-strip technicolor left in. Overall, I agree with the OP of this thread and am very grateful for the scheduling of these films.
  9. He's joking that she looks masculine like a transgender.
  10. I think the superhero movies will come to an end at least (hopefully).
  11. It's a great film but not even my favorite Welles' film (I prefer "the Stranger" and all of his Shakespeare adaptations).
  12. My top 10- 1. Twin Peaks: the Return, David Lynch, US (2017) 2. The Pervert's Guide to Ideology, Sophie Fiennes, UK (2012) 3. The Artist, Michel Hazanavicius, US (2011) 4. Lessons of a Dream, Sebastian Grobler, Germany (2012) 5. Liberation Day, Ugis Olte, Morten Traavik, Slovenia (2016) 6. The Ballad of Buster Scruggs, Ethan Coen, Joel Coen, US (2018) 7. Trotsky, Alexander Kott, Konstantin Statsky, Russia (2017) 8. Jackie, Pablo Larraín, US (2016) 9. The Young Karl Marx, Raoul Peck, Germany (2016) 10. Melancholia, Lars Von Trier, US (2011)
  13. I was thinking of Girl Crazy (1932). I'll do an easier one- Next: James Ellison
  14. The Wild Bunch Next: Robert Woolsey
  15. In the 1990s/ early 2000s there was a TV channel that used to show the B&W Silly Symphony cartoons (I distinctly remember seeing the China Plate (1931) and Egyptian Melodies (1931) and loving them). I'm not sure what the channel was called though it may have been a predecessor to the Disney Channel. Anyways, that's where I saw many of those cartoons and enjoyed them and it's a shame that channel isn't around anymore.
  16. I thought the bartender in this scene was James Finlayson but after going to the IMDB it looks like it's Monte Collins.
  17. https://consequenceofsound.net/2019/04/fan-beaten-for-spoling-avengers-endgame/ Hong Kong man beaten outside theater after spoiling Avengers: Endgame Marvel fans "beat the man up to teach him a lesson" Avengers: Endgame is the culmination of 10 years’ and 21 films’ worth of storytelling, and Marvel has gone to great lengths to limit spoilers. The film’s directors, Anthony and Joe Russo, went as far to ask fans for their discretion in an open letter, and publications (including ours) were issued strict guidelines when it came to what plot points could be disclosed in early reviews. Fans are also taking measures into their own hands. According to Asia One, a man outside a cinema in Causeway Bay, Hong Kong was brutally beaten after he began revealing spoilers to Endgame. The report adds, According to Taiwanese media, a man dressed in white, who seemed to have just exited the cinema after watching the three-hour movie, started revealing spoilers loudly by the entrance. Cinemagoers who were waiting to enter the doors were fuming and some reportedly went to beat the man up to teach him a lesson. The photo ignited many discussions with fans claiming that “he got his just desserts served” or that they “felt good seeing this”. The aforementioned photo can be seen below (via Asia One). Meanwhile, Avengers: Endgame is in theaters now and, despite a few bad apples, is on pace to make over a billion dollars worldwide in its opening weekend.
  18. I actually did but I forgot that was from 1997.
