FredCDobbs Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 "Operator 13", a great movie today 1-3-2012 3:30 ET With Gary Cooper. A Civil War spy film. Very good, lots of drama, comedy, and romance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bolesroor Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 Okay, I know this is not PC in the least, but Marion Davies speaking pidgin English with that accent is actually kind of sexy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FredCDobbs Posted January 3, 2012 Author Share Posted January 3, 2012 LOL, if you liked that one, then you should see "White Cargo" (1942) with Hedy Lamarr. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0035553/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bolesroor Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 I love Hedy Lamarr... I will check it out! LOL... I thought I was going to be lost after not having seen the first 12 "Operator" films but I picked up the plot pretty quickly Between Marion being an octoroon, the subplot about Katharine Parker's panties and the jugband singing Jungle Fever this was one strange little movie. Personally I like Marion Davies best in silent comedies. Has anyone ever seen "The Red Mill"? She is adorable in that and so funny! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TopBilled Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 I like this film a lot. There are some plantation scenes in HEARTS DIVIDED, too. She's great at spoofing those southern belles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
