Bogie56 Posted July 10 Saturday, July 11 10 a.m. Popeye: Nix on Hypnotricks (1941). 1:30 a.m. America, America (1963). Really good Elia Kazan film. But when the schedule was originally released this was mistakenly described as a Korean film by Kil-soo Chang, America, America (1988). It took me a while to track this down on the imdb as it has a different year and spelling for the director. 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bogie56 Posted July 11 Sunday, July 12 Bedazzled (1967), one of my favourite comedies with Peter Cook and Dudley Moore and the babe with the bust, Raquel Welch was originally on the schedule but has been replaced by two Japanese films that I would like to see … 8 p.m. Children of Hiroshima (1952). 9:45 Hiroshima (1953). 5:30 a.m. Borom Sarret (1963). Short subject by Ousmane Sembene. According to the imdb this is ‘arguably' the first film by a Black African. 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SadPanda Posted July 13 Looking forward to seeing 1963's Captain Newman M.D. tonight. This was a late show staple back in the 1960's, but it's been decades since I saw it last. Mostly I remember being really impressed with the acting of Bobby Darin in this movie. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think I saw CAPTAIN NEWMAN M.D. a long time ago and remember liking it quite well. I'll probably catch it myself again tonight. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Great movie, with Borgnine turning in a playing-against-type performance as the lonely butcher looking for love (he usually played the nasty big bad guy during this period).

Bogie56 Posted July 17 Saturday, July 18 10 a.m. Popeye: Kickin’ the Conga Round (1942). 4:30 a.m. The Quiet American (1958). I believe they took great liberty with this Graham Greene story turning the American into the hero. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

One of the very few films in which Wayne, as "Ole," attempted an accent and he's quite winning in his role. The film, for my money, belongs to Thomas Mitchell. However, everyone's effective in this lyrical drama. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheCid Posted July 17 One of the more interesting scenes in Mark of the Vampire 10:45 AM July 17 is the very large rats. Look closely at one of them. A good movie if you have not seen it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A good movie if you have not seen it. Are you sure you don't mean bats? I know MGM imported ACTUAL BATS from SOUTH AMERICA and had to agree to destroy them after filming as part of an agreement with CA Fish and Wildlife (cruel as it is, it kinda makes sense, ESPECIALLY from our present POV**.) I think they appear in all of, like, one or two brief shots. **or they could have, you know, used fake bats like they do for most of the rest of the film. I kind of can't help but wonder what lucky production assistant got the job of MURDERING THE BATS once the shoot wrapped.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Some might feel cheated with the final twist (which I won't spoil) but I thoroughly enjoy the movie. Lionel Barrymore is a joy to watch, as is Bela Lugosi (even if it wasn't exactly a role for him to stretch out his acting chops). 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I believe they took great liberty with this Graham Greene story turning the American into the hero. Graham Greene was upset with the changes. However, and I will try not to spoil this for those who haven't seen the film, the changes made by Mankiewicz make perfect sense to me, as a character who feels smugly superior is shown to be the most naive of all. Jean-Luc Godard considered this the best film of 1958. Um, no, but it's a well-made and satisfying film, with an outstanding performance by Michael Redgrave. Thanks for highlighting it, Bogie. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
