Re: Noir Alley

I like Ray Teal. I saw him first in a small role as a private detective in Carrie (1952). He tracks down Olivier as the latter is on the run with his lady love. Ray is nothing less than formidable in the role. I would shudder to think to meet someone like him in real life and in a situation as that....

I worked for a Italian restaurant for awhile and he would come to the lot and park and then dine a Arriverderci Ristorante. He had with him who I took was his girlfriend, a cute pint-sized Asian girl. The owner asked me who he was because he would invariably have followers and they discussed bit pow...

Re: I Just Watched...

Agree most heartily on the comments on Melinda and Melinda I might change "lesser" with "the worst (or close). The actress, not knowing her name offhand, was not helpful. As prolific as Woody is, he can be forgiven for having an occasional stinker.

Re: WHAT FOREIGN FILMS HAVE YOU WATCHED LATELY?

Did anyone else see Donkey Skin ( Peau d'ane ) (1970), shown last night as part of TCM's Art of Artifice series? It was an excellent choice, and a film I had never seen. Alicia Malone's introduction told us what we needed to know about the fairy tale by Charles Perrault. She has a lovely French acc...

Re: Noir Alley

I agree that Lizabeth Scott not seeming much of a femme fatale and so much so that she was miscast. I haven't seen all her films but she comes across better as a "nicer" girl such as she was in the Martha Ivers movie. Heston doesn't seem right and saying that in retrospect because we knew ...
