Billy Wilder if one of my favorite directors, I have seen almost all his films. This by far is my fav (except for Stalag17 of course).

I spent weeks trying to make cigarrette holders with paperchips after I saw it for the first time.

A must see!

I am a classic movie FANATIC, and I own all the films I listed. I would never give a bad idea. Swear.

oh wait, this isn't the lying thread.

Jet · 11-20-2009, 06:10 PM

I seldom turn my TV away from TCM.
I collect movies and wanted to be a screenwriter at one time.
I'm with you on Billy Wilder who's an idol of mine especially the soliloquey in The Lost Weekend.

Favorite Movie of all time, hands down:
The Best Years of Our Lives (1946) directed by my second hero, William Wyler.
Nine Oscars including Best Picture and Supporting Actor, Harold Russell.

See ya at the movies.

Rufusboi · 11-20-2009, 06:18 PM

I love the opening shot of Touch of Evil. That wonderful long shot. It is a classic to watch and gets me every time. Touch of Evil had one of the first butch characters in film. Rufus

Bette Davis is amazing in this movie. She's crazy and outrageous and wonderful.

Some of her quotes as Joyce Heath:

Quote:

You're everything that's repulsive to me!
You're wife? I've never been a wife to you, you poor, simpering fool!
If you had any pride, if you were a man instead of a drooling milk-sop you'd throw me out and be ashamed to admit you'd ever married me.

Quote:

I should laugh at you, should I? But I can't help it. You were so awkward that I almost laughed in your face at first. And then it made me sick to think that anyone could be stupid enough to be taken in by old tricks. I thought you might at least be amusing, but you turned out to be dull, and stupid and so afraid. Well you needn't be? I won't hurt your Sunday school romance or your oh so nice career. Hurt me? Get out of here before you give me hysterics!

Quote:

It's either going to be your life or mine. If you're killed, I'll be free. If I'm killed it really doesn't matter. If we both die- good riddance!

I was watching the TCM channel during the Halloween horror fest... and I have say Dr. Jekle and Mr. Hyde made me laugh all threw the movie. I had read the book and saw some remake of it way back when. The original is the best.

Jet · 12-12-2009, 02:29 PM

watching The Man Who Shot Liberty Valence, great old western

Jet · 12-12-2009, 05:21 PM

I Love old movies and am also an avid TCM watcher. Some of my favorites are:

Torrid Zone/James Cagney-Ann Sheridan
The Maltese Falcon/Bogart

Really just too many to even list. I also collect silents and have many feature films of the 1920's.

Since I was a little girl, Gentlemen Prefer Blondes (1953) with Jane Russell and Marilyn Monroe is one of my all-time favorite movies.

It Happened One Night (1934) with Clark Gable & Claudette Colbert is one of my all-time favorite romantic comedies.
