Sleeper Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 I know the photo is labeled as Vincente Minnelli, but it is NOT Vincente Minnelli - it's not his jaw line, not his smile, not his eyes, not his brow, not his nose, not his head - he never had the elfin look like the pictured man does and Minnelli definitely did not have a cleft chin! Also, Minnelli was not the director at the outset of the filming of The Clock. He replaced Fred Zinnemann after shooting had started. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
42ndStreetMemories Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 Sleeper, Compare this image of Minnelli with the posted one below. You will see the same distinctive eyebrow, bottom lip, hair line and smile. It's definitely Minnelli. If the link doesn't work, just try a Google image search.

CineMaven Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 My claim to fame among my friends? About twenty years ago, I attended an event in Harlem where I got to dance a two-step with Fayard Nicholas. He was already a very old man. Ha, I struggled to keep up with him.

bansi4 Posted April 25, 2010 Author Share Posted April 25, 2010 CineMaven, if you ask me, you lucked out dancing with a legend of the silver screen. I wonder where Dorothy's mother Ruby was when the picture was taken? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maven - you've been holding out on us. That is such a great memory to add to your guest programmer experience with mongo and the others. They will last your lifetime. As with those attending the Festival and sharing their fun, I am once again living vicariously through you and other TCM fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CineMaven Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 He was a gracious gentleman. After you get things all squared away...I WANT YOU OUTTA THE HOUSE and writing of YOUR cinematic adventures!!! The Maven has spoken! Mongo... Heaven knows where Ruby was. I sort of think they were estranged; professional jealousies and "other" kind of jealousies too, from what I've read. Dorothy Dandridge was stunning looking. Hey wait a minute...you're the Candid Man. Let's have a nice dreamy color photo of Dandridge in all her glory. Saaaay something from "Is- land in the Sun" or in spectacular red as "Carmen Jones." Whaddya say??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
