TopBilled Posted April 8, 2017 Author Share Posted April 8, 2017 "Love Letters" - the tortured romance of this film is - what? - almost "exquisite". Yes. It's one of my favorites in the romance genre. The supporting cast is tremendous. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TopBilled Posted April 10, 2017 Author Share Posted April 10, 2017 "O. Henry's Full House" was Farley Granger's last Hollywood film. Yes, he turned to stage, television and foreign film productions. There are some episodes of him on YouTube when he made appearances on Edge of Night in 1979. It was an interesting storyline, but he played kind of a pathetic character and it just seemed so beneath his talents. I guess he had an electric bill to pay. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He originated the role in the famed Broadway production. Yes, he worked with Hitch several times. The three episodes of the TV series I highlighted are rare examples where Hitch not only hosted but also directed (between movies). He kept casting John Williams for a reason, leading me to believe Wiliams was a personal favorite of his. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every now and then, I'll watch an episode of "The Alfred Hitchcock Hour" and be totally "knocked out" - just recently, Gloria Swanson, James MacArthur and Lynn Loring in a dark, dark tale and Vera Miles and Jeffrey Hunter in another dark, dark tale. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only the first four seasons of Alfred Hitchcock Presents is on Hulu. I think my favorite is the one called "Toby" where Jessica Tandy keeps talking about a baby in the other room, and it is suggested the baby (we don't see it until the very end) is dead. Like you really use your imagination with that story, and Tandy is superb. The ending is a total surprise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamesJazGuitar Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 Wednesday April 19, 2017 Claude Rains in the 30s on TCM THE INVISIBLE MAN with Gloria Stuart STOLEN HOLIDAY with Kay Francis JUAREZ with Paul Muni THEY WON’T FORGET with Gloria Dickson THEY MADE ME A CRIMINAL with John Garfield HEARTS DIVIDED with Marion Davies Read about Stolen Holiday and it sounds interesting. I typically enjoy Kay in light hearted comedies \ romantic films so I would love to see her in this drama, especially since her co-star is the fantastic Rains. I assume she holds her own. BUT tonight is jazz jam night so I'm leaving. Since the film is a WB production, I'm hoping TCM will show it again. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
