sewhite2000 Posted November 26, 2019 Share Posted November 26, 2019 I still don't think I've ever seen Peyton Place, although for some reason I've seen Return to Peyton Place twice. So, I'm just 4 for 10 on seeing films from that list. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I like the original better, even though it's not in Technicolor like the remake, because it features wonderful character actors such as S.Z. Sakall, Fritz Feld and Eugene Pallette. It's a fun movie and it's nice to see Kay Francis do some lighter material instead of the usual melodrama. Link to post Share on other sites

I've seen it sewhite, and in this scene the penguin is saying to Edna... "No, I'm sorry but I have no tables available at the moment. Now, if you would had made a reservation...." 1 3 Link to post Share on other sites

No desire to see it again. My friend listens to the music from this film as a means to fall asleep. I had many friends who worked on "Silence," and I still enjoy it. A slow burn at a time when over-doing it was the norm. To me, it felt like a classic movie, just with a modern spin. Link to post Share on other sites

Great role for Edna Mae and totally entertaining. These two were wonderful together. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
TopBilled Posted November 27, 2019 Author Share Posted November 27, 2019 I'll be away for most of the day, which means I won't be able to post the Cheat Sheet till this evening. But I'm sure you guys (and gals) will be able to figure out most of these anyway...! Have you seen these classic films: 91. 92. 93. 94. 95. 96. 97. 98. 99. 100. Link to post Share on other sites
Bethluvsfilms Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 99 is a great film, but kind of hard to watch....maybe something I'd watch once in awhile but not too often. Though Jodie was fantastic in that. 100 I consider an overlong and pretty crummy remake of the far superior DEATH TAKES A HOLIDAY with Fredric March. 91-96 are ace with me all the way. Haven't seen 97 or 98 (at least not that I can remember). 2 Link to post Share on other sites

sewhite2000 Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 My fellow posters are being coy, but since it's already been my habit to come in and spoil everything I already know: 91 is City Lights, but I've actually never seen it. 92 is Since You Went Away, yes I've seen it 93 is Christmas in Connecticut - yes Strictly a guess on 95, but Whatever Happened to Baby Jane?, maybe? Which I just watched again last night for maybe the 12th or 15th time. But unsure this still is from that movie. 96 is The Unskinkable Molly Brown - yes 97, another guess, Barbarella? Never seen it all the way through. I'm not entirely sure that's Jane Fonda. 98 is Logan's Run - yes 99 is The Accused - yes 100 is Meet Joe Black - yes So, I've seen at lest six of these for sure. Maybe more, depending on the ones I'm unsure about. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

sewhite2000 Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 Oh, well, I've seen that one. TCM finally aired it a year or two ago. Okay, well I've seen at least seven on that list then. Link to post Share on other sites

I've seen that movie a dozen times and I never tire of it. I've also seen 39 and 40. When I told my friends that I don't cry at movies, they were determined to find the saddest movie of all time to see if I would cry. They picked #39. I didn't cry. I already knew the ending, so I was anticipating it. So you didn't Cry Tomorrow? Link to post Share on other sites
filmnoirguy Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 Since You Went Away is my favorite Claudette Colbert movie. Sudden Fear is my favorite Joan Crawford film. Christmas in Connecticut is NOT my favorite Stanwyck comedy (The Lady Eve is) but I'll be watching it this holiday season because I love it. The Unsinkable Molly Brown is my favorite Debbie Reynolds musical (and, btw, I held the door for her at her Vegas hotel back in the day, and she even said "Thank you"). 1 Link to post Share on other sites
