FrankGrimes Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 No. I 'm just mesmerized by the caps..... Anna Sten really is a sweetie. HEY! Did you say you LIKED IT? What the heck is going on. Ummmm, well, uhhhhh... "Manya" is now my favorite female character in a Coop film. She's ahead of Amy Jolly, Gina, and... Lamby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JackFavell Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 methinks you doth protest too much, mister. I like Anna Sten too. If she can make you say something nice about a Coop movie, then she's aces in my book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MissGoddess Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 You would like this movie, Jackie. I think Mad Hat Molo would, too, if we can get him to watch it. The story takes a rather surprising turn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coopsgirl Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 Frank, if you were wearing this white hat I might trust you. *The Wedding Night* is a good one, sad but entertaining. The relationship between Gary and Anna Sten's characters seems believable and sweet. The tension between Gary and his wife (Helen Vinson) is palpable and seems very real. I think the three of them all did a great job. Anna never quite caught on but I think she was fine here. I'm curious if this had been made a couple years earlier in the precode era, if it would have had a different ending? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The story takes a rather surprising turn. I think she'd like it, too. At least the second half of the film. And I do like it more than Dodsworth.

FrankGrimes Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 Frank, if you were wearing this white hat I might trust you. Is that Colonel Sanders? The Wedding Night is a good one, sad but entertaining. It is rather sad, but quite lovely. The relationship between Gary and Anna Sten's characters seems believable and sweet. Uh-huh. They made a wonderful couple, yet... The tension between Gary and his wife (Helen Vinson) is palpable and seems very real. I really felt for Dora (Helen Vinson). She was wonderful, and so very supportive. I liked her. And this is why I like this film more than Dodsworth. There's real conflict here. I think the three of them all did a great job. I agree. Hurts, donut? Anna never quite caught on but I think she was fine here. This is the first Anna film for me, and I thought she was a cutie. But the character really fit her, since she's playing a Polish girl. I'm curious if this had been made a couple years earlier in the precode era, if it would have had a different ending? That's an interesting question. Quite possibly. But I do love the ending, although how the end came to be is a bit of a stretch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coopsgirl Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 *Is that Colonel Sanders?* I admit he does look a little Colonel Sanders-y there but he's totally working it. Finger lickin' good baby!! His wife seemed a little shallow at first but we can tell she does love him and once she sees their relationship is threatened, we see the real her instead of the party girl she had been. I do like the ending as is and it seems reasonable to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You got a laugh out of me, Licky.

I do like the ending as is and it seems reasonable to me. Nicely said, girl. I completely agree. I really felt for Dora. She really was a good woman.

MissGoddess Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 Hi there-----looks like one more Gary Cooper movie is coming to DVD. 1933's Alice in Wonderland has Coop appropriately enough playing a knight in shining armour: http://www.classicflix.com/alice-wonderland-p-9495.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coopsgirl Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 I just got an email from ClassicFlix about Alice in Wonderland. I've seen Gary's scene on youtube but have never got around to getting the bootleg of that one. I'll have to pick this one up. That makes two of his films they are planning on releasing inlcuding The Devil and the Deep in January. I hope they keep 'em coming like this!

HollywoodGolightly Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 Awesome photos! I really like that horse, too. :x And jolly good news regarding Alice in Wonderland, though I'd imagine Cary Grant fans and W.C. Fields fans are equally excited about it.
