TheExtraGirl Posted January 24, 2006 Share Posted January 24, 2006 My guide came seriously late in December, too. Usually it arrives in the middle of the month. Anyway, they're good about the replacements - it'll get to you. From one serious RM fan to another, it's worth the wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cb159 Posted January 26, 2006 Share Posted January 26, 2006 count me in too! and what a dancer ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ayresorchids Posted January 26, 2006 Share Posted January 26, 2006 Have you noticed that, especially in his early films, Bob dances in a unique style? I don't know how well I'll be able to explain this, but... Instead of his clasping his partner's right hand so that it is lying in his, with their elbows down, he has his left arm bent upward and clasps her hand from above. Very stylish. An early 1930s thing, I guess? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vallo13 Posted January 26, 2006 Share Posted January 26, 2006 Ayres,I noticed that also with Robert Montgomery if my folks where alive they would have known that dance style. And watch the way Dana Andrews drinks in The Best years of our Lives and Laura his elbow is straight out like he's saluting. Strange things indeed... vallo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
violaviolet Posted January 26, 2006 Author Share Posted January 26, 2006 My guide came in the day after I started this thread. And you were right on the money ExtraGirl, it was definitely worth the wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
violaviolet Posted January 26, 2006 Author Share Posted January 26, 2006 And did you hear him in Untamed. Quite a crooner too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheExtraGirl Posted January 26, 2006 Share Posted January 26, 2006 While we're at it, he was a great whistler! Good examples of it in Mr. and Mrs. Smith and Private Lives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ayresorchids Posted January 26, 2006 Share Posted January 26, 2006 AND a great eyebrow-waggler (hope you saw The Man in Possession). *Sigh* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmovielover Posted January 26, 2006 Share Posted January 26, 2006 William Powell in the THIN MAN drinks the same way. Must be the 1930's style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
violaviolet Posted January 26, 2006 Author Share Posted January 26, 2006 oh yes. he also does a nifty job of it in night must fall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
violaviolet Posted January 27, 2006 Author Share Posted January 27, 2006 The Man In Possession is one of my favorite pre-codes. Irene Purcell's ripped up nightgown is priceless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ayresorchids Posted January 27, 2006 Share Posted January 27, 2006 > William Powell in the THIN MAN drinks the same way. > Must be the 1930's style. Sort of like that elbows-crooked-toward-front thing that chorus girls do in early '30s musicals. Very unnatural, but somehow cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheExtraGirl Posted January 27, 2006 Share Posted January 27, 2006 Eyebrow waggler! This has me intrigued. I haven't seen The Man in Possession since TCM aired it last time over the summer, but I recorded it this time around. Will have to give it another look...I do remember the torn nightie though...

ayresorchids Posted January 27, 2006 Share Posted January 27, 2006 Well maybe "waggler" is an exaggeration. It's not Groucho-like--just sort of a jump of the eyebrow that is very suggestive/mischievous/adorable. As in TPIP, when the sheriff tells Irene Purcell that he hopes his assistant gave her satisfaction! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnyweekes70 Posted January 27, 2006 Share Posted January 27, 2006 Rutger Hauer does the eyebrow thing best. Depardieu's a close second. Then Roger Moore, William Powell, and Bob Montgomery. One of the twerps on Sex and the City does it as well but he doesn't really count compared to the great supercilious eyebrow wagglers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
