ghost of miles Posted June 23, 2006 Report Posted June 23, 2006 One of Wilder's earliest screenplays is Garbo's NINOTCHKA. Love that film! In addition to the films listed, also really dig THE APARTMENT (1960). Quote
BruceH Posted June 30, 2006 Report Posted June 30, 2006 Coming up soon: Ball Of Fire, North By Northwest, T-Men, Seven Men From Now, and The Adventures of Robin Hood. Not bad! Quote

BruceH Posted October 1, 2006 Report Posted October 1, 2006 Laid up with a cold, I watched The Odd Couple followed by The Third Man yesterday. A strange combination, but fun. I hadn't seen The Odd Couple in quite a few years and really enjoyed it. Quote

BruceH Posted October 6, 2006 Report Posted October 6, 2006 i've never seen a bette davis film You might want to check out a flick called All About Eve----it's a keeper, and it has one of the milestone performances of Davis's career. Quote
Randy Twizzle Posted October 6, 2006 Report Posted October 6, 2006 When Bette Davis died in France in 1989, a friend of my brother's, who worked in the U.S. embassy in Paris was involved in making arrangements for the body to be sent back to the U.S. During his work he got to see her passport and noticed that she had scotch taped a 1940s photo of herself over the much less flattering contemporary passport picture.

BERIGAN Posted December 18, 2006 Report Posted December 18, 2006 Is Remember the Night on DVD? Man, I would have sworn it was, but it isn't! Screenplay was by Preston Sturges as well. Quote

I just got through watching The Sadist, a great entry in TCM's Arch Hall Jr. "festival." They recently showed The Honeymoon Killers in the "Underground" series. I never thought I'd see that film on TV! Quote
