Word is circulating that some Costcos have the following digibook Blu-rays for $13.99: Camelot A Streetcar Named Desire A Star Is Born Citizen Kane

A few more Gene Barry covers

Thank you, TCMWebAdmin!

This is a premiere for TCM and it is a very fun caper movie with Michael Caine! Wait until you see some of the car driving!

You have disrupted this thread from the moment you entered it. You are good at giving advice but bad at taking it. If I am not welcome in a thread, I won't post there any longer. Why? Because I don't like to cause trouble, as you seem to and you do it with an ego that put Orson Welles' to shame. You are trolling.

Actually, it IS harassment. If someone were to ask another person for a date, and that person said, no...but the first person continued to ask, even though they were told, 'No, quit asking"...that is harassment. You have been asked to leave this thread. You have refused. You have been asked again. You have refused again and continue to post. That is harassment. And, yes, if the moderator decides so, you can be banned.

I think it is clear that you are trying to chase me off, and when that does not work you resort to bullying which will likely cause your thread to get locked. Please refrain from doing that. But when the host of a thread politely asks you to not post in it any longer, and you continue to do so, that could cause you to get banned. It's called harassment. You've seen he has asked you multiple times and yet you choose to continue.

There is a DVD with both the b&w and --- arghh --- a colorized version. http://www.amazon.com/Zorro-Special-Edition-Colorized-Black/dp/B000A9QK8M/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1359474109&sr=8-1&keywords=themarkof+zorro

Sigh. While you say you are a feminist, you put on airs like Blanche Dubois with your calling people here rude, which makes me think of her speech of: "But some things are not forgivable. Deliberate cruelty is not forgivable! It is the one unforgivable thing, in my opinion, and the one thing of which I have never, never been guilty." And you insist on have the last word.

> {quote:title=TomJH wrote:}{quote}filmlover, I've got a few of those radio dramas. Powell had that great line delivery in the movies, so no surprise that he is equally good at it on radio. It is a little disconcerting (to me, at least) when his Richard Diamond character breaks out into a song. But when he sang, it was usually at the end of the story, where he was with his girlfriend at a piano. It wasn't like he did it in the middle of a shootout.

> {quote:title=Arturo wrote:}{quote} > Addison, first off, thanks fo your vote of support. Just a couple of comments. At the time this movie supposedly took place, Los Angeles was just a sleepy Mexican pueblo of 1,000 at most. It cosisted of one story adobe dwellings, so there is nowhere room for sets to lend themselves to "grandness", except maybe in the opening scene in the Spanish court. > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Arturo, you just reminded me...I meant to post that at the time, it was called *El Pueblo de Nuestra Señora la Reina de los Ángeles* (basically Town of Our Lady Queen of the Angels).

I am not sure if it has been mentioned these in 8 pages but Dick Powell also played detectives in two radio series. One was Richard Rogue in "Rogue's Gallery" and, much more famously as "Richard Diamond, Private Detective." The latter series was written by Blake Edwards (yes, that Blake Edwards) and Powell would usually sing a little in each episode.

This is one of Alfred Newman's best scores. It was used again in the TV-movie version starring Frank Langella as Zorro. There's an outake from this movie that is quite funny. It shows the robbery sequence of the Alcade and his wife in the carriage. Zorro carves his Z in the upholstery. The Alcade looks at it in astonishment..."Zanuck!"

Thanks, helen, I read your comments yesterday. Great detail. And delightful news for Ben!

I think he was perfect for the role in Farewell My Lovely because he showed the world-weariness of the character. Marlowe: "Thanks, Nulty, but that's not what I need. What I need is another drink. I need a lotta life insurance, a home in the country! *I need a vacation! I'm tired! Everything I touch turns to* ****! I've got a hat, a coat and a gun, that's it."

> {quote:title=dpompper wrote:}{quote}With all the saber/sabre (both spellings are acceptable) rattling and codpiece crushing that went on in here yesterday, I hope everyone still is OK. For some reason, I just thought of this passage in The Mark of Zorro: Diego: I must please ask you to change the subject. His Excellency objects to talk of throat-cutting. Estaban: Quiet, you Popinjay! I have no reason to letting you live either. Diego: What a pleasant coincidence. I feel exactly the same way about you, Capitan.

A comic adventure of John Wayne, drawn by the late, great Al Williamson.

I'm late to this thread but I think Robert Mitchum was the best, in Farewell My Lovely.

Argghhh!!!! I forgot about the SAG awards tonight!!!! I missed seeing the Dick Van Dyke salute!

Anyway, getting back to the subject of this thread, I will be glad to see these two films tomorrow night.

Tom, you probably picked up on it, but clore was only kidding you, pointing out a certain hypocritical view in another thread. And I am glad that turmoil is at an end. As Maureen O'Hara said in another role, near the conclusion: "I´ll be goin´ on home now. I´ll have the supper ready for you."

Not much fun when someone does it to you. Just wanted to prove a point, that it is good to respect others.
