  1. I can't think of any good ones to do at the moment. You or someone else could take over if that's okay.
  2. Of course you guys do have the Mounties to protect you from any American, orange led invasion.
  3. 7 is Henry Armetta (very good in the L&H film the Devil's Brother)
  4. First Spaceship on Venus Next: a bad western movie
  5. It Happened at the World's Fair Next: movie from the 1930s
  6. 1 is Joseph Crehan 2 is Pierre Watkin 4 is Henry O'Neill
  7. Yeah, that's a good way of putting it. Totally agree. Found it very dull.
  8. I saw it and didn't care for it. I'm not really interested in planes/ the story though. Not really much of a Jimmy Stewart fan either. If you're into those kind of stories you might like the whole film.
  9. Conquest - This fantasy film from Lucio Fulci is a Spanish- Italian- Mexican co-production. This is one of the fantasy films aping off the success of Conan the Barbarian (one of my favorite films). Unfortunately this one doesn't have much of the charm of that film. Jorge Rivero faces off against a witch and werewolf/ zombie men in an ancient fantasy world. While the special effects to this one are very dated I did like some of the cinematography, especially a beautiful shot of the sunrise emerging in a cloudy, misty environment. If you are into cheesy B films, this one is worth a look.
  10. Dyanne Thorne Janet Agren Linda Lovelace Francesca Ciardi Gabriella Boccardo
  11. Paul's opinions on popular music and classical music were probably influenced by Theodor Adorno- a left wing philosopher popular among the left wing students of the time. He thought that popular music about protest and uprising "made the unbearable bearable." Paul says something similar in this movie and says he prefers Bach's Concerto in D.
  12. 2 or 3 Things I Know About Her is a very good film. Its use of prostitution in middle class Paris to tell about exploitation, strife and war in Vietnam and throughout the world is very good. The film is relevant more today than ever
  13. That is literally the reason foreign films do not do well in the US though. Most people simply do not like subtitles.
  14. And the Ship Sails On - In the days before WWI, a funeral is being held for a respectable female opera singer. The boat is taking all the funeral mourners to her home island and of course the mourners are made up of kooks and oddballs in typical Fellini fashion. This isn't Fellini's greatest film but I thought it was very funny and has a touching part where refugees land on the ship and are forced to watch the rich eating through the window. A touching scene that certainly wouldn't be out of place today. If you like Fellini's light and dramatic side, I suggest giving this one a view.
  15. This is what the iMDB says. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0039589/trivia?ref_=tt_trv_trv The poem read by Inspector Temple (Charles Coburn) to Julian Wilde (Cedric Hardwicke) is from "Harmonic du Soir" by Lord Alfred Douglas, not Beaudelaire, despite the fact that he is holding a copy of "Flowers of Evil" (Fleurs du mal), a collection of Beaudelaire's poetry. 7 of 7 found this interesting | Share this
  16. It wasn't actually Baudelaire. The poem Inspector Temple reads is from "Harmonic du Soir" by Lord Alfred Douglas, not Beaudelaire.
  17. I've seen Lured a long time ago but have rewatched it today. Lucy is good in this one (as always) and Karloff gives the film an eery feel. The story and cinematography remind me a lot of Hitchcock's the Lodger which may be intentional. The London sets are very well done too. I thought some of the plot twist was a bit meh.... too but overall an enjoyable film.
  18. Yeah, I also liked the first one. I thought it was funny when Scruggs hit the table with his shoe causing the one guy to fire on himself.
  19. I just saw it on Netflix. I have to say that I love it! I won't spoil anything but my favorite story was the fifth one with the woman and the dog. Very touching and sad. The film had really great cinematography too.
  20. What about the Ballad of Buster Scruggs. I've heard good things about that one and need to get around to seeing it.
  21. I recognize Godfrey Ho because he made a bunch of cheesy (but fun) Hong Kong ninja films. Very good director.
  22. My favorite is probably Lost Weekend. My favorite scene is where he is at the symphony and dreaming of dancing alcohol.
  23. They did one for Native Americans too a few years ago, I think. Unfortunately they didn't show the cheesy Lone Ranger movie with Michael Horse.
