Zea Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 Poor Lana’s really unhinged road trip in "The Bad & The Beautiful" brought to mind many other movie madness moments. What other movie flip outs, bug outs & breakdowns come to your collective minds? I couldn’t resist one more: Ida Lupino in "They Drive By Night" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laffite Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 Terrible, both. But the idea is not bad just screaming, good or bad, right? Stanwyck fans will have a field day, she was a great screamer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watching it makes me scream every time... And if that's not good enough there's always that movie "Screaming Mimi". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't sure who you were referring to, as I just watched Crime of Passion (1957), where Wray plays the wife of Raymond Burr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomJH Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 Fay Wray's response to be asked out on a date by this poor guy. Okay, actually it's her response to Lionel Atwill in Mystery of the Wax Museum 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raymond Burr may not have been pretty but some might thinks he beats out this guy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dargo Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 Here's a couple of guys who would ultimately go insane by the end of the movie, but which was something that they pretty much brought upon themselves by at first feigning insanity as a means to some end: Peter Breck in 1963's Shock Corridor... And, Jeffrey Hunter in 1965's Brainstorm... (...you'll have to excuse Jeff's lack of screaming here...he seems to be in more a catatonic state today) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a great Sam Fuller movie, "Shock Corridor" is with photography also by the fab, Stanley Cortez! That bit of getting accidentally incarcerated in an asylum, is so scary, even though in Fuller's film of course Breck knew what he was doing, but things went a bit awry. In something like "Sisters" with Jennifer Salt, one just hopes she gets out and I have a morbid fear of being committed and ending up with a lobotomy like Frances Farmer. I think I went off-topic and I hope no one is screaming at me for this transgression. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
