Yes!! During Bogie's hallucination.
$200 for the job -- what would that come to these days?

Re: I Just Watched...
Oh my gosh, txfilmfan, I got a chill reading that! Had no idea... Or, to quote Lonesome, "Moly Hoses!" This short story has a quote from Griffith himself on his temper.. https://www.metv.com/stories/andy-griffth-even-keeled-andy-taylor Thanks so much! At least he was self-aware.

Re: I Just Watched...
Lorna, love your THE MIND READER post. I'm not gung-ho about Warren William in general but "a walking venereal disease", wow, lol. (wonder who that person is) I always found him stage-hammy, but gentlemanly. I usually never believe him in any role, most particularly an ichthyologist. But n...

Re: MUSINGS, PONDERINGS, RUMINATIONS AND FANCIES
Wow, I never knew about that coda, txfilmfan! What a great post, thank you. Raises more (important) questions! Not only the ones you mentioned, but Madeline's car supposedly parked at the hotel but which desk clerk Ellen Corby refutes. Was she paid to say that? For some reason I always enjoy the sen...

Re: I Just Watched...
Lonesome Rhodes is one of those come-from-nowhere performances that always astound me. I wonder where Andy pulled that darkness from? Great acting. I can understand your feelings, jimimac, about NTFS but I do think AFITC is one of Kazan's best. One never expects to see Walter Matthau as "Vander...

I like Melvyn Douglas as an actor but when he aged looked just like my Uncle Louie from Queens.

Re: I Just Watched...
I never get tired of A FACE IN THE CROWD (which is a good thing since they air it so much, lol) so decided to dive in again. Now, some of you might know that my recent great will power (not when it comes to Lay's Dill Pickle potato chips) concerning maintaining a calm attitude towards a certain main...

Or --- TRILOGY OF TERROR!
Actually it was Lee Grant as Alex's mother who was the real scary one.
I barely recognized Jill Clayburgh as the Israeli girl.

Re: Noir Alley
The plastic surgery segment in DARK PASSAGE always creeps me out, including a scary looking Bogie with those bandages. It almost seems like a nod back from Warner's to their 1930's urban horror thrillers, DR. X, MYSTERY OF THE WAX MUSEUM and THE RETURN OF DR. X.

Re: MUSINGS, PONDERINGS, RUMINATIONS AND FANCIES
It was very hard believing someone like Judy could pull off being Madeline, no matter how much "coaching" she had. That jumping into the ocean bit fascinates me because when Scottie phones Elster to tell him about it, there is a pregnant pause from Elster's end, which I took to mean he did...

Re: MUSINGS, PONDERINGS, RUMINATIONS AND FANCIES
I have to confess that I've never truly understood VERTIGO, much less why it's been on Top Ten lists as one of the greatest American movies. I have less of a problem with Scottie than I do with dumb needy masochistic Judy, putty in the hands of controlling men to be sure. Everyone in this story is p...
