Before the blonde aliens sent me into the land of nod, I was thinking exactly the same thing about Walter Brennan and John Qualen.

 

Do they happen to have any Irish blood in them I wonder.

 

Well, I guess Kathy and Jackie and I will have to really think hard of brick walls so we can see COME AND GET IT in its entirety and partake of its emotional rewards!

That's easy, just think about Kevin Costner! :P

Well, those German silents you've been watching should wake you up right away. You, Metsie,

and FrankGrimes should strike up a real discussion about them because I haven't seen them

and I'm curious. The one I most want to see is *The Man Who Laughs*. I could use some. :P

 

Right now I'm watching WINGS OF EAGLES on my computer and taking ten thousand

screencaps. I knew this movie was a "hidden" gem and I was RIGHT.

 

I had to follow Hawks with Ford, there was just no other way.

 

Oh, *The Ballad of Cable Hogue* is on Encore at the same time. It's quasi-interesting. But

I don't like Jason Robards, Jr. and I don't like the hippie-ish, 70s feel to the music. Nor do

I like Stella Stevens' Dolly Parton hairdo in the middle of a desert. It's ridiculous! Sam! What

were you smoking?

Don't forget the Kleenex for THE MAN WHO LAUGHS; there's nothing funny about poor Gwynplaine! But there's the added zest of Olga FREAKS Baclanova as a free-spirited dutchess who has a strange yen for dear Connie.

 

Is WINGS OF EAGLES the Pappy one where Duke is "Spig"? (or a name similar to that) And he's in the hospital because of an accident and has to tell himself to move his toes? And he has a bittersweet relationship with wife Maureen O'Hara?

 

Yeah, I saw HOGUE was playing on Encore, but I hate that 70's revisionist II'm assuming it is) type western so I skipped it. I like Jason in only two films -- LONG DAY'S JOURNEY INTO NIGHT, and A THOUSAND CLOWNS. I like Stella Stevens but I'm not sure about that hair, lol.

Yes.

"I'm gonna move that toe...move that toe..."

That's right, "move that toe, move that toe!"

 

I wish my hirsuit elderly randy neighbor with the ape arms would move a few himself and get his clothes out of the dryer already so I can put mine in. He's old, so I don't begrudge him the slowness (he's got a walker); it's his vulgarity that's disgusting. He says to me: "I can do pretty much EVERYTHING....(grinning) you know what I mean, honey?"

 

Ewwwww.

I still think you need to go down there in a dirty old housedress, fuzzy slippers, with your hair in

curlers, Krispey Kreme smeared all over your face and chomping a cigar---then tell him you can

do MORE than everything, too.

 

He figures this he can get at home and you might then have the laundry room all to yourself. :D

hahahaha -- yes, I should go in there looking like Shirley Booth from COME BACK, LITTLE SHEBA. But at least she had someone (Burt baby) to clean up for.

 

I don't know why (because I'm not a fan of service comedies) but I'm in the mood to check out THE WACKIEST SHIP IN THE ARMY tonight, and not just because it's a Lemmon I haven't seen.

 

The downside is that Ricky Nelson is in it, and he probably sings, and the song is probably not as wonderful as "Cindy, Cindy" from RIO BRAVO.

If I'd been in your place I'd have told him, "Can you make like a tree and LEAVE?" :P

Oh, I'm jealous of Lola with Doc in her arms! Great photo, april.

 

Ahh, I just came back from taking my clothes out of the dryer -- he was gone and it was just me and an iguana the size of Hank Quinlan.

 

Peace....Now I'm ready for that ship. Gee, I notice that John "I look like a Clark Gable substitute but w/o a mustache" Lund is in it. My mother doesn't like him. I asked her why once, but she couldn't give me a good reason.

So, I was watching this Western earlier... *The Comancheros*. I enjoyed it quite a bit. It's one of the better Wayne westerns I've seen that wasn't a John Ford movie. And there's this lady in it who seems very nice, her name is Ina Balin. Apparently, she was born in the Bronx. B-)

Wow! Imagine, an iguana the size of ol' Hank is preferable to....

I have to know the reason. It's probably as lame as some of mine. :D

 

Nitey night, Barbara--and remember! Anything is possible, includng the sudden relocation

of ancient hairy apes to another apartment complex far, far away!
