Nice Ollie!

"CM, I'd be really interested to know your thoughts on The Unfaithful (1947) as someone who is such an expert on The Letter (1940). While I'd definitely concede that Letter is the superior movie, they are so completely different in character motivations it's hard to think of them as the same s...

"I have nothing to add to your comments because they are all on the mark. The only thing is, that was Alan Alda's father Robert in the wings.

Anne"


Yes MrsL, Robert's the handsome Dad. I mis-wrote. I was so long-winded, I wrote the wrong name. Thank you!

Mr. Arkadin...that’s a great still of Ann Sheridan by the fireplace. Great sweater set in the cabin (great!) and I love her copper hair spilling and cascading past her shoulders in this movie; no baby fat...she’s a little older, has a bit more chiseled a look and she is very becoming throughout thi...

For those of you who choose not to join the minefield and cow patties over at TCM City...I am reprinting my comments here, and will add responses to your [/i] comments later. * Why do these movie wives act like cold fish and then are surprised when their husbands lose interest and get attracted to ...

Saw that I got a PM from Baby Dust but when I tried to access it, nada. No news is good news. All I know is over at TCM City HollywoodGoLightly posts are spreading like wild fire...or cancer.

Thank goodness for this oasis.

(P.S.) I apologize to all cancer victims.

"By the way, anyone interested in a great read should pick up the book HITCHCOCK / TRUFFAUT which consists of a lengthy interview Truffaut conducted with Hitchcock punctuated with many beautiful stills. It's probably out of print but relatively easy to find." About thirty years ago, I wen...

Can't wait to see "THE DEVIL COMMANDS." Karloff was very touching in this film.

ChiO, your journey to "The Duaghter of Dr. Jekyll" was very hilariously clever.

I don't remember sending you a check for that glowing commendation Hollis...but your check is in the mail. Thanxx very much for the compliment. Appreciate it.

Aaaaah...September. :-) I, for one, will be looking forward to the Sword & Sandal flix on Monday September 14th: * Colossus of Rhodes, The (1961) * Hercules, Samson & Ulysses (1963) * Tyrant of Lydia Against the Son of Hercules (1963) * Terror of Rome Against the Son of Hercules (1964) * Me...

As I wrote in TCM City until the patter of little (Size 15) feet turned my threads into swiss cheese, if any newbie is out there interested in learning about Classic Hollywood films, all of June would be an ESSENTIAL/b] . ”Of course, unlike Gable or Bogart, he is almost completely forgotten. Perhaps...

Nice YouTube fare on"Arch of Triumph." So, reunited after "Gaslight" ey? Is it my imagination...or is there a light that shines from inside Ingrid Bergman out into your heart when you watch her performances? Just asking.

”I like Carroll Baker and think she was a good actress, better than most of the bottle blondes of the period, but I can completely see why others wouldn't take to her. Her face isn't very expressive and she has a rather unattractive voice that sounds flat or monotone.” MissGoddess . I’m a Carroll B...

Kind of hot & crowded over at TCM City, so if you don't mind me stopping by the oasis for a breather. May I weigh in on your question about Gable, Moira? You asked earlier: "A question for you guys. Spencer Tracy once said that one of the best things that ever happened to his career was lea...
