THE BEST LITTLE WHOREHOUSE IN TEXAS

It was a joke. Alec Baldwin has had some savory behavior in the past and depending on your political leanings, he may or may not be a monster in that regard.
David, if it’s not too forward, how old are you? If you don’t want to answer, feel free.
I admire Alec Baldwin as an actor, but I don't think I would want to hang out with him in real life, he's been known to be a hot-head.

I mean that the fact that Natalie signed Kirk's personal home walk of fame is not evidence that he didn't
assault her. We now know that friendly behavior between a victim and her victimizer is possible, however
contradictory that seems to common sense.
Tom is right.....it's time to lay off the "Did or didn't Kirk rape Natalie Wood?" scenario, at least on this thread.
This thread is meant to be a tribute to Kirk, his film legacy and paying respects to his passing....if you're not interested in contributing anything but insisting "it's very possible that he is a rapist", then I suggest to start a new thread about it elsewhere.

1:30 a.m. Julius Caesar (1953). Sheridan Morley’s biography of John Gielgud recounts his story of watching the rushes and then being astounded by James Mason stealing every scene without much apparent effort.
James Mason is definitely the best thing about Julius Caesar, though I wouldn't sell the rest of the cast short.
I mean, even Brando as Marc Anthony was certainly watchable.

Burt Lancaster on TCM
FROM HERE TO ETERNITY with Deborah Kerr
SEPARATE TABLES with Rita Hayworth
ATLANTIC CITY with Susan Sarandon
Awesome selection, especially ATLANTIC CITY and FROM HERE TO ETERNITY.
That infamous beach scene with Deborah Kerr puts many explicit sex scenes in today's cinema to shame, I must say.

Ruby Dee had a very small role as Denzel Washington's mother, Mama Lucas in American Gangster (2007) but she certainly packed a lot of punch. My choice for best supporting actress of that year.
I agree, she was just perfect in what could have been a thankless role, but she was just terrific and more than held her own with Denzel.

You would never guess and 30 million years that THAT WIMP in MARTHA IVERS would be killing it in CHAMPION three years later...or even OUT OF THE PAST the next.
ACE IN THE HOLE is INCREDIBLE. I really wish that Jan Sterling had managed to sneak into the best actress category that year.
Yes, Kirk was so great in ACE IN THE HOLE,, as was Jan.
As good as he was in DETECTIVE STORY, I thought he was even better in ACE, he should have gotten his Oscar nod that year for that one (though I know ACE IN THE HOLE was a box-office flop that year).

612 is a classic without a doubt.
615, 616, 617, 618, I truly enjoy each and every one.
Haven't seen 619 and 620, while one of my mom's favorites, I can't say it's one of mine.

You go to your post, click where it says "edit", and then delete by using the backspace. Leave the word "delete" or just a ".", since it won't let you just leave it blank.
Thank you very much.

You might wait until Kirk's at least in his grave.
Man, I hoped this actor had a great enough career after well over60 years that a topic like this wouldn't threaten to take over a tribute thread about him a mere two days after his death. But some people, it seems, are really drawn to the sordid (even if there's no evidence of its truth).
You are right, this thread should be focused on Kirk's career and accomplishments, not unproven accusations. My apologies for unwittingly bringing the subject back to the surface.
He starred in so many great classics, it always astonishes me that he had so few Oscar nominations. I am glad at least he got an honorary Oscar.

A FUNNY THING HAPPENED ON THE WAY TO THE FORUM

So many memorable finales, but these are the ones that stick out in my mind. Of course there will be SPOILERS:
James Cagney blowing himself up at the end of WHITE HEAT.....doesn't get any more exciting or better than that.
Rhett Butler (Clark Gable) finally fed up with Scarlett (Vivien Leigh) and her mooning over Ashley quits giving a damn and walks out on her at the end of GONE WITH THE WIND. And just when she finally realized she had a good thing all along with Rhett and didn't see it. Sad but fitting finale.
The whole world blowing up after the doomsday device is set off at the end of DR. STRANGELOVE as the song 'We'll meet again' plays as the bombs go off.
The end of TITANIC when Rose finally meets up with her first love Jack and the rest of the passengers and crew who perished that night in April 1912.
