Re: 2024 TCM Film Festival

The Egyptian was all one space. It just reopened a few months ago after being closed for a year (or maybe longer) for a renovation. The theater is gorgeous. We saw two movies there during the festival. Fantastic. Thought it was terrible they carved it up into bits some years ago. It's not back to i...

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...

My car would probably take up 1/2 of Perry's cars! LOL. I probably watch around 12 stations on a regular basis. Another half dozen once in awhile. The rest I never watch. Mine too, though I doubt his gas mileage was very good. FETV runs PM episodes in the afternoon and in prime time, which are the ...

Re: Noir Alley

It's never made clear just what type of sister she is. She mentions being a foster sister or something like that. Not related. It's obvious she's a lot older. True, she never kills anyone, but I'm sure she'd use TIerney to kill if it suited her purposes and covers for him.

Re: I Just Watched...

Once in awhile they aren't half bad. Some of the bad ones are at least entertaining. 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 ...

Re: 2024 TCM Film Festival

Wasn't the Egyptian divvied up into small performance spaces? Is it all one theater again? The Egyptian was all one space.

Re: Coming up on TCM...

O'Toole was dubbed (not even with a good singer). Sadly, Sophia wasn't.

I think the reasoning was using a great singer wouldn't sound like O'Toole, so they went with someone who sounded more like him but wasn't up to singing the score in a great way. My Quest (The Impossible Dream) was terribly done.

YES. I'm looking forward to seeing it again. Haven't seen it in years.

Re: MUSINGS, PONDERINGS, RUMINATIONS AND FANCIES

laffite, I want your honest opinion of ALL MINE TO GIVE, good, bad or indifferent, lol. I have a lot more respect for Cameron Mitchell; watching this movie back-to-back with NO DOWN PAYMENT, it's easy to come to the conclusion that he just might have been an underrated actor. Don't be spooked by Pa...

Re: Noir Alley

Right. And why be jealous if Cook was gay? Unless he was to dumb to notice! I doubt he thought much about Cook one way or the other. He was just a guy that Tierney could use for his own purposes. As bad as Trevor is, she kind of blends into the background compared to Tierney. I consider Trevor wors...

Re: Noir Alley

For those who might have missed it, the Neo-Noir series on TCM was a special theme on Fridays in July, 2021. Each week Ben and Eddie would introduce and discuss three films classified as Neo-Noir. It seemed to be a joint project they had worked out together, and TCM promoted it as an offshoot of No...

Re: I Just Watched...

That was a funny scene! I loved the monster cars Perry drove....... Yeah he liked those old "yachts." Perry had a big carbon footprint and a big footprint all around. Paul often tooled around in a T-Bird. I bet I watch no more than 15 or 20 channels in my DirecTV lineup. They are now requ...
