Re: Coming up on TCM...

just FYI Leonard Maltin still gives the film a BOMB rating in his annual Movie and Video Guide, stating "Beautiful source material has been raped, murdered and buried". Oddly enough, there are some rave reviews for this film on imdb. No accounting for taste, I guess. Granted, adapting thi...

Re: I Just Watched...

I'm waiting for TCM to air Monogram Month. I do realize that would only happen in my (and many others) dreams. Let's not forget that they changed their name later on to Allied Artists. Yes and the films were a lot better! LOL. Yes. Under that name, the former monogram did Friendly Persuasion, Invas...

Re: Coming up on TCM...

https://twitter.com/TCMComingUp/status/1783197967303991457 so....should we blame this MESS totally on the greed & arrogance of the producers & director, without a mention of WHY 2 such major acting talents would embarress themselves in a major film musical when they simply CANNOT SING??! :r...

Re: I Just Watched...

:D Yes, Monogram can certainly be counted on to deliver the tacky goods, be it The East Side Kids with Bela Lugosi, skulking gorillas, bare-bones haunted houses, shuffling zombies, or snooze-inducing Nazi agents. But of course these are the most fun to watch as far as I'm concerned. Once in awhile ...

Re: In my own little world

Well, in the past year, I have been helping to take care of quite a few stray cats, first one we've been feeding for years, then a mother cat, then her four kittens when they were weaned, then two more who came along the way. Well, several of the female cats are now expecting, and the mother cat jus...

Re: I Just Watched...

Maybe I have it and just don't know it. LOL. It's such a chore to go through the hundreds of channels on their grid. I don't know if the channels would be in the same order where you you as they are here (TCM is channel 276 here), but here, FETV was 197. I'll miss channels like it due to cutting ch...

Re: I Just Watched...

I have Spectrum. I've not seen FETV on it, but then havent been looking. But I get plenty of Perry on other channels I have. Maybe I've seen the color episode, but it was the B&W version. I have Spectrum too, and until the last two weeks (when for budgetary reasons, I had to drastically cut bac...

Re: I Just Watched...

I think there were a handful of jazz nightclub type episodes. Unsure which one I'm remembering. Yeah, suddenly Perry is on 3 or 4 cable channels now with marathons on wknds on one of them. And starting earlier on weeknights too. Yeah, I just noticed tonight that PM is also on another channel in add...

Re: MUSINGS, PONDERINGS, RUMINATIONS AND FANCIES

I just found this poster that was actually made for Young Frankenstein in the 1970s which made me laugh so much that I feel I have to share it.

Re: MUSINGS, PONDERINGS, RUMINATIONS AND FANCIES

I started watching THE SEVENTH CROSS and wondered where Jean Pierre Aumont was, then remembered I was confusing it with THE CROSS OF LORRAINE. They both had Hume Cronyn. I think Aumont was with his mistress: https://i.pinimg.com/originals/4c/3d/60/4c3d6072abf5b0903875d043607762cf.jpg Oh yeah, MAHOG...

ARE YOU THERE GOD? IT'S ME, MARGARET (2023) Great job with an important little book. Boys had the same questions and anxieties.

Re: I Just Watched...

I have a pretty complicated and nit picky PERRY MASON QUESTION and it is entirely possible that no one will have the answer for it, but: If you go to the IMDb top 10 highest rated episodes FOR PERRY MASON and then you go and you look up THE SERIES on FREEVEE or AMAZON or PARAMOUNT PLUS- almost HALF...
