CineMaven Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 " I like him better in SHADOW OF A DOUBT, where he saves Theresa Wright's life but all she can muster up by way of gratitude is: "Er, um, thanks, Herb" He's also great as one of the canny lawyers in THE POSTMAN ALWAYS RINGS TWICE. 'i'm handling it, which means, I'm handling it'. " Ooooh how D'ya do it? You just named my favorite part of Cronyn's performance!!! I WAIT to hear him say that all squinty-eyed and sexy. He's quite sexy to me in this. I see what Jessica Tandy saw in him. Sorry Jackaaaay but I think Hume AND Leon Ames were sexier than Garfield in this. Oh...and sorry about the piecemeal nature of this post. I'm typing on my iPOD Touch, one letter at a time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CineMaven Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 "Wan't Sir Lancelot singing in Brute Force as well? I love him! He's too sweet to be in prison. Why is it when he sings something bad always happens? If white guys in prison sang more, they wouldn't get into trouble as much." (I'm thinking of "JAILHOUSE ROCK"). You and Jackaaaaaay are killing me...one letter at a time. Sir Lancelot (NOT to be mistaken for today's Sir Mix-A-Lot) probably got arrested for singing in public hence the jail time. Besides, somebody had to cook. NO Voting...NO Sitting at the Lunch Counter...NO Singing In the Streets. And he better not ogle them women! Didn't Lewton let him speak like a normal person in "CAT PEOPLE 2"?? At least he wasn't tap dancing. History 101 by the Maven. My question is...why are folks in the movies the biggest tippers in the world? The waiter looks wide - eyed and emphatically says "THANK YOU SIR!" all amazed! Ha!

Where does Keye Luke's Dad figure in the "festivities?" No nooooooo. Ya got me! Wrong movie. Totally wrong movie Bronxie; not unless Cukor or Whale or Arzner's directing. No wonder the postman had to ring twice. Are the stars out tonight I don't know if it's sunny or bright 'Cuz...I'm handling it and when I say I'm handling it. I'm handling it!

Bronxgirl48 Posted July 25, 2011 Author Share Posted July 25, 2011 I'm afraid I'll revive just long enough after Keye's papa's wine to pass out once more, just looking at my handsome, gorgeous, adorable, huggable, dark-eyed bambino. I'd love to take Rudy over to a mirror and croon to him, "Who's that sweet boy? "Who's that sweet boy? Is it you? Yes it is, yes it is!"

Oh I don't know...he was a good lawyer. He got her off didn't he? When are we getting banned? "I'd love to take Rudy over to a mirror and croon to him, 'Who's that sweet boy? Who's that sweet boy? Is it you? Yes it is, yes it is!' " What what what are you doing Sassy?! First off... N0 crooning! Didn't you learn a thing from Sir Lancelot?! Secondly...if that's your best lovey dovey talk you'll turn Rudy into a parrot. Talk to Jackaaaay and ask her about the thousand things she and Leslie Howard did. I'll see what you conjured up later. I've got some straightening up to do in my new place. Remember...I'lll be waiting with bated breath.

JackFavell Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 Good Lord! Rudy hoisting the mizzenmast... I'd say the banning will start soon. Hey, Maven, I thought The Company She Keeps was on youtube, but I guess I was wrong. I couldn't find it anyway, and it isn't available on Netflix.

SansFin Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 Today was herb day at Chez Capuchin. He harvested lemon thyme, lemon balm and rosemary from his tiny garden. The pieces which were so very small they could not be tied into bundles and hung to dry he put on sheets in a low oven to dry them. The house smells wonderful! Dinner will be his wonderful rosemary chicken and duchess potatoes. He has already made lemon bars for dessert using fresh lemon thyme. He has tiny chunks of dry ice to put into our glasses of vodka. I do not know if the pictures you post and your salacious talk will be banned but I can confidently assure you the wicked and wanton things I am planning for later this evening are far beyond anything the movie ratings allow.

Bronxgirl48 Posted July 25, 2011 Author Share Posted July 25, 2011 I think Christian Nyby was around for like ten seconds or something, lol. I'm almost certain Valentino thought there was life on other planets. AH-HA!!!! Rudy/Rex, I'm not crazy!!! Check again at 1:22, 1:23, because this is where I first noticed it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L5GTuIWe3PM Let's not panic, though, I only notice the resemblance in THE EAGLE, but even that might be too much....

JackFavell Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 I still don't see it in the clip...but he does a little Rex mannerism when he shakes his head. Maybe this is what you noticed? Maybe Rex stole his look from Rudy. I could live with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bronxgirl48 Posted July 25, 2011 Author Share Posted July 25, 2011 I never noticed a head-shaking mannerism of Rex's; now I'll have to watch for it in his movies. No, it's not that with Rudy -- it's the whole face and expressions at that moment, especially the mouth, but never mind, we'll try to forget! LAND OF THE PHAROAHS is worse than I remember...

Bronxgirl48 Posted July 25, 2011 Author Share Posted July 25, 2011 I'm getting sleepy; I need Rudy to put me tenderly to bed. Oh, wait, I've got those Sheik reviews...time to make the coffee! What makes Rudy the perfect man is that he loved to nurture as much he liked to BE nurtured. He talked baby talk with Natacha; they called each other "babykins", so I just know he'd love my crooning! "Bring the snake in a strong basket" Whaaa? No, that isn't Natacha, it's the lousy dialogue from LAND OF THE PHAROAHS. Okay, coffee... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
