What I'm curious about is the concept of "ownership" in terms of series and films which streaming platforms offer to either rent or "buy". How does that hold up over time when platforms are so much in flux? The fees to "buy" a new movie aren't cheap either, usually arou...

I may be musing recklessly and pondering where I ought not to but there's a moment in Rebel Without a Cause which always gives me pause. It's in the scene near the end where Plato pretends to be a real estate agent showing Jim and Judy around the abandoned mansion and the subject of children comes u...

Pondering: Why didn't Jimmy Stewart have a fan in REAR WINDOW? It was certainly hot enough in that apartment and I am not talking about Grace Kelly, lol. I'm guessing Hitchcock thought it would be more suspenseful for the audience if they sweated along with Jeff. Good point. We see into all the apa...

Has anyone ever noticed Lee Remick's unique walk? Like Bob Hope's stride, very iconic with this actress. The only way I can describe it is that she toddles. I love when you give us homework and this is something to look for. She definitely toddled in her drunken pinball scene in Anatomy of a Murder...

We also loved the first episode of FELLOW TRAVELERS, which has a great role for Matt Bomer as an aggressive and ruthless closeted gay man, with Jonathan Bailey as the good Catholic boy who falls for him. The action takes place (so far) in 1952 (Joseph McCarthy's search for Communists) and 1986 (AID...

This one's for you, Coop.

Also, does anyone know if Catherine O'Hara really did her own singing in the movie? She seems to be credited as doing so, in the film's credits, and if that is correct, she did an amazingly good job at it. IMDb sez Catherine O'Hara sang "Sally's Song" and in all of the other songs in whic...

I hope to see it. The first few days of my trip is work, but I have almost two weeks after that to see friends and go to the theater. It sounds like an interesting production, though I must confess I had never heard of Nicole Scherzinger. I love Jamie Lloyd's work. I've seen The Hothouse, Richard I...
