I've been sick for the better part of a week but am better now. I watched a good chunk of the Laurel and Hardy SOTS day and they were truly fantastic. I swear those guys are the standard which every comedy duo should be measured against. I was a bit worried though at times as Ollie really got quite ...

In my feverish stupor I was able to watch Tight Spot. I have to agree about Ginger Rogers. I'd never seen her other side so this was a real treat for me and I absolutely loved it. I groaned at the seemingly gruff cop falls in love with girl from the wrong side of the tracks direction the movie was h...

You ever watch a movie and it grabs a hold of you to the extent that you think about said movie and characters for the next couple days? That's what i'm going through with Monte Walsh (1970). At first I thought the movie was a meandering and boring mess but right about the quarter mark of the film I...

I plan to watch a ton of movies this week so I better document what I watched today: Shalako (1968) Sean Connery in a western? As odd as it may seem it actually happened. This movie was done during Connery's break from Bond and all I can say is it's a lot better then some of the dreck he did in the ...

Since we last spoke I've seen Good Day for a Hanging which starred Fred MacMurray. Interesting little oater. It's basically a reworked High Noon without the punch of the latter film. I read on here that MacMurray never looked totally comfortable in a western setting and I have to agree with that aft...

Re: New Version of Griffith's ORPHANS OF THE STORM To Air!
Everyone, :) Wanted to be sure to mention, TCM programmer has informed me, that the version of D. W. Griffith's ORPHANS OF THE STORM (1921) with the Gish Sisters, is in-fact the brand new Kevin Brownlow-Patrick Stanbury restoration from Photo-play Productions produced in 2004! It has not been broad...

Well I saw The Last Frontier (1955) before going off to Niagara Falls for a couple days (aside: I won $130 bucks WOOHOO!) anyways I just got back so i'm not so much into the typing mood BUT I gotta say I have a new found respect for Victor Mature. What a great role and what a great Tony Mann Western...

I watched the movie before a little trip I made afterwards. It was fairly pedestrian (sorry for the pun) with a boatload of old cliches and situations BUT the acting of the young Anne Bancroft, Peter Graves, and Farley Granger more then made up for the material. I also got a kick out of seeing Antho...
