hershon2000 Posted October 14, 2004 Share Posted October 14, 2004 I'm a Peter Lorre freak and I even suggested TCM make him actor of the month which they finally did, but much to my dissapointment they didn't show any hard to find Lorre Movies (such as "I was An Adventuress", "Crack-up", "Face Behind the Mask", "Island of Doomed Men", "Rope of Sand" which I do have pretty good copies on video). Anyway, if anyone has decent (they don't have to be perfect but they do have to be watchable) videos/DVD's of "Double Confession", "Mr. District Attorney", "I'll Give a Million", "Lancer Spy", "Nancy Steele is Missing" and wish to trade or sell (reasonable prices only) please email me at hershon2004@yahoo.com I'm also looking for Lawrence Tierney's "Kill or Be Killed" and the Great Gatsby with Alan Ladd.

therealfuster Posted October 18, 2004 Share Posted October 18, 2004 I'm assuming that you already have "Mad Love" and "Stranger on the Third Floor" which are not that obscure? I did buy "Black Angel" on dvd recently, which is a good one with the added benefit of Duryea. One of the most bizarre films I've ever seen is his "The Story of Mankind" which is beyond description. Are there any particular Lorre films you are looking for? I'm glad you suggested a festival for him, because I watched and enjoyed that whole slew of films on TCM. It was fun seeing him steal the scene in so many films, even from Greenstreet in "The Mask of Dimitrios". There sure is no character actor like Lorre alive today, who can make so much out of the dialogue of a film, from so little...so often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommantand Posted October 19, 2004 Share Posted October 19, 2004 Peter Lorre was also the star of 8 Mr. Moto movies, excellent detective/mysteries that I highly recommend. Hopefully TCM will show more than just the public domain title (Mr. Moto's Last Warning) that is on later this month. The other 7 Fox Studios Mr. Moto's are excellent and I hope TCM can obtain them!
