Flynn/De Havilland at their best as the Custer's
I know a lot of people will disagree with that assesment. Miss G will probably say Captain Blood as it's her favourite Flynn role and others will understanbly say The Adventures Of Robin Hood as it's the best film of its kind ever made. however, while i believe 'Robin' is a better film, i think They...

Michael Curtiz, a tyrant, but most versatile director
I would say if you judged who was the best director on versatilty, you'd be hard pushed to see passed Michael Curtiz. i wish i could say he was a nice guy, but from what i can gather he was a bit of a tyrant. however, Swasbucklers-Captain Blood, The Charge Of The Light Brigade, The Adventures Of Rob...

Hayley's the gl...

Miss G I connect it to the African Queen because both films have it seems to me two virginal middle-aged woman who are sexually awakened by Bogie and Randy it's maybe a poor example, but remember how Donna Reed was so screwed up in Trouble Along The Way, because she was brought up by a single dad an...
