lavenderblue19 Posted May 13, 2013 Share Posted May 13, 2013 LOL. That never happens in *All About Eve* another scene- she spends the night at the apartment of the man who has the party. Early in the morning he sits on a park bench in Central Park, trying to decide what to do about her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lavenderblue19 Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 mr.6, so close the thread is yours. I was going for the remake of *Morning Glory* - (1958) *Stage Struck* Susan Strassberg is the Katharine Hepburn character, Henry Fonda is the Adolphe Menjou character of the producer who falls in love with her. Herbert Marshall plays the actor who helps her, C. Aubrey Smith played him in the original. Good work, mr.6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flashback42 Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 I do remember it, Sixes. I saw it after bigscreen release, back when VHS rental stores were about one to every block, like Starbucks. I will watch for this premier. Next up: Mid-1950s. Asinine scene in a pretty stand Western. Bad Guy, prepared in ambush, aims and fires, with a rifle, at the hero. Misses. Hero quick-draws his pistol, snaps off a shot, and kills the Bad Guy. This kind of unrealistic gunplay draws sneers from viewers who are actually familiar with how to use firearms properly. Film? Who? Edited by: flashback42 on May 21, 2013 10:45 PM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flashback42 Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 Scenes are divided between riverboat gambling salons and the frontier farther west. Good Guy is an A-list star with a solid resume`, but he did not often make Westerns. Bad Guy is a solid-citizen support-role performer, seen in many Westerns, but not exclusively. It often happened in his career that he had relatively small roles, but that he often got "killed" on screen by top-name stars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flashback42 Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 Correct, skipper. The rifleman in that scene was Robert Wilke (sometimes billed as Robert J. Wilke), who, as mentioned, put in a lot of time getting snuffed by some A-List names (James Stewart, James Coburn, Grace Kelly, and the like). skipper's thread.

mudskipper Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 Robert Wilke is one of those unsung familiar villains we often see on the screen, but whose names nobody knows...He has this weird and threatening way of showing his teeth where you don't know if he's smiling or smirking....

mudskipper Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 Sorry, Edythe. Guess again. It's not "Johnny O'Clock", but it's a very good movie...

Dothery Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 Boy, you're good. Here came Jones and there was Loretta Young in her $700 rancher's dress. Gary Cooper's production company made that movie and they were flabbergasted, not to say livid, that she insisted on that dress. They were going to whip something up in the wardrobe department that would be more realistic, but not on your life would she take it. Nope. $700 of their production money went for that dress. Anyway she looked sensational in it, and it was a wonderful picture, and I particularly liked the line where he tells Bill Demarest that the reason the saloon inhabitants stood back and got out of his way was that he was "unsmiling." You are up, old buddy ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edythevanhopper Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 That has to be The Great Impostor, a whacky tale of deception of Ferdinand Demara played by Tony Curtis. He played a dentist aboard a Canadian naval ship? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mudskipper Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 That's the one, Edythe...The movie has a lot of great supporting actors...including Frank Gorshin, Karl Marlden, Edmond O'Brien, Arthur O'Connell, Joan Blackman, and Dick Sargent... For those interested, here's the movie. The funny scene starts at 1:15.... http://youtu.be/X5gO21naKFo Your Thread... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edythevanhopper Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 The scene described here is a 60s film: A doctor sits by a phonograph playing Ma' Blushin' Rosie while darning his sock. There's been a scuffle in town. He's called away to treat a patient. A woman and small boy watch as he treats his patient. ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edythevanhopper Posted June 15, 2013 Share Posted June 15, 2013 I should have stepped in earlier. A western starts out with 5 prominent citizens....a card table.....poker chips. The scene with the doctor is later in the film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
