Re: First Film that comes to mind...

Advance to the Rear (which was on this morning)

Next: a movie where the lead where’s a Cartier Tank watch.

*for those who don’t particularly care about watches there are actually a few A list studio films I can think of which feature this watch.

Re: What Movie Related Book Have You Read Lately?

I finished Veronica Lake's book a while ago. I liked reading about her feud with Fredric March. I could see the two of them not getting along. Lol. I recently watched I Married A Witch . I enjoy the movie a lot, but I can't help but think about how Veronica Lake and Fredric March couldn't stand eac...

Re: Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice (1969)

You still don't get it. While you and I (and I assume the vast majority of users here), believe the "attitude" in question is archaic, people are entitled to having such a POV. Thus, the question becomes why you feel the need to keep challenging this "attitude" especially given ...

Re: Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice (1969)

Men do not control sex. Women control it completely. Any hetero consensual sex that takes place takes place because of the woman. She decides. Always. I'd say you need to move up into the 21st century, but really, it appears you need to come into the 20th century first. https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos...

Re: Kevin Spacey Found Not Guilty - Accusers Were Lying For $

Swithin, anything with Rod Taylor in it has always been an embarrassment. For me. He just couldn't act. So, I didn't see the film you mention. Naturally I've seen "The Birds" but in that film only Tippi Hedren was a worse actor than Taylor; a mighty contest, for sure, but she won it!! I'l...

Re: Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice (1969)

Nope. Huge difference. You don't see the difference so you don't agree. Good enough. The only difference is that it's not the husband receiving someone else's sperm. That both the husband and wife are both involved in an infidelity makes it an equal betrayal. Neither one is worse than the other. Se...

Re: Kevin Spacey Found Not Guilty - Accusers Were Lying For $

Today, it's much clearer as to what kind of behavior is acceptable and what is not. It is not 'much clearer'. Not by a long shot! Instead, it is a lot grayer. This is why so many people are into cancel culture: because they disagree about what behavior is acceptable and wish to cancel those that vi...

Re: MUSINGS, PONDERINGS, RUMINATIONS AND FANCIES

What does the phrase “dead as Star Trek” mean? Samuel L. Jackson says this phrase in the Spirit and I have been trying to decipher what it means. The only thing I could come up with is it must mean an unsatisfactory end because so many people were angry at Kirk’s death in Wrath of Khan. :smiley_huh:...

Re: MUSINGS, PONDERINGS, RUMINATIONS AND FANCIES

If you consider the silent, pseudo-travelogue Legong: Dance of the virgins to be a studio film then it is probably the first to feature up close nudity. "National Geographic" nudity has a long, sordid film history. Trader Horn (1931) is an interesting example. First we see bare-breasted t...

Re: MUSINGS, PONDERINGS, RUMINATIONS AND FANCIES

Fedya makes the point that two pre-code films might be considered to have the first topless scene in an American studio film. WARNING: Do not read the following if you hate film history pedantry. In Wings (1927), Clara Bow is briefly caught topless while changing clothes. In Ben Hur (1925), a parad...
