To quote Eddie Muller, Rod Steiger in this is at "his most Steiger-est". And that is only one of its pleasures! LOL! I remember it being very talky.... And by talky, if you mean "shoulda been cut by 45 minutes," I totally agree! The dialogue is very fancy-schmancy, "periton...

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...

No mine is a different set up. TCM is channel 55. I pay around 125. It used to be 117 but they raised it a couple months ago. Thanks anyway. (I'll check just to make sure!) I would be paying a little less, but I added on a few channels (Dateline ID and something else) when I signed up as they weren'...

I think the relationship was more one sided on Cook's part. Tierney used him to clean up his messes. As his reward, Tierney let him worship him. Although there seems to be some homoerotic longing going on, you'd think if Cook ever acted on it, why would Tierney go off on Cook after he left Trevor's...

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've seen the color episode on MeTV too, as it's the only channel on which I've ever watched PM. The distributor withheld the color episode from the syndication package for many years, for some reason. I don't get MeTV but I have seen it on FETV. I laugh a bit when Perry comes back with Della to fi...

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...

I tend not to believe that as Jennifer gave it away.

Anyone catch the Jennifer Jones/Joseph Cotton double feature on Sun. night? Neither of those films are shown on TCM very much. I tuned in during the middle of Portrait of Jennie (not realizing it was on). I love Love Letters, but it ran too late, so I recorded it to watch this wknd. I love the score...

The first murder points to a variation on the old saying about bringing a knife to a gun fight. If he had a gun he could have shot Tierney with nothing to worry about. Of course it would have been a much shorter movie. Yes, Sam Wilde is one of the most cold-blooded killers in noir and one of the mo...

Oh joy!! THE BIG KNIFE is coming on the 27th and 28th!! Wonder what Eddie has to say about this laugh fest noir. It's a treasure trove of campy good badness, including hilariously gauche "ironic" musical touches emphasizing the existential and metaphorical aspects of Charlie's compromised...

:D Who else enjoyed the cheapjack Monogram WWII propaganda "thriller" I ESCAPED FROM THE GESTAPO? Dean Jagger (when he still had hair, but it was probably a rug) plays a forger unwittingly involved with a drab bunch of B-movie Nazi saboteurs in hard g "Los Angle-eez" headed by J...

I think I vaguely remember that episode now, at least that Bobby Troup was in it. (unless he was in another one) I'll watch out for it! :D Yeah, Bobby played the beatnik piano player with the hard to fathom monologues. I think he was in a couple other episodes, maybe the one where James Drury playe...
