![]() Another actor I like from the old guard is Robert Taylor. Handsome devil and married to Barbara Stanwyck. Out of all of his movies, I think Westward the Women has to be one of his best.

![]() Searching for the singer in this scene, LUCHA REYES is how I landed on this clip. Her voice just stops my heart. I am intrigued to see the whole film. I am looking for a copy (english subtitles nice but not necessary) should anyone know of one available online.

I really enjoyed seeing a PBS special last night about the screwball romantic commedy genre of the 1930's & 1940's. So many great clips of Hepburn, Tracy, Lombard, Monroe, Hudson, day, Grant, plus! Good night at the home cinema!

I love classic movies and hope I can both learn and contribute to this thread. For now I will just read the posts, and hopefully get to know everyone.
A change of heart...since it seems the convo has turned to Billie Wilder - one of my fave directors - I'd like to add, IMO, one of his best: Witness for the Prosecution - great film! Here's a clip from the court scene. Dietrich is being interrogated by Laughton. [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kd-9CSjyA7A&feature=related"]YouTube- Mock Trial - Cross Examination[/ame] |

To me, there is no war picture more heart wrenching than the true story of The Fighting Sullivans.
My hobby is WWII history and classic films, and the story of losing five brothers on the USS Juneau and how it impacted the nation and military policy (pre-private Ryan) has always had an affect on me— along with the movie which was nominated for Best Story. I wanted to share the scene when Mr. and Mrs. Sullivan receive a personal visit from three naval officers to deliver the news that their sons had died. Mr. Sullivan (played by Thomas Mitchell) asks, "which one?" The naval officer (Ward Bond) replies, "All five." The scene is not available so I'm posting a lighter sequence of the Sullivans as young boys along with other facts. Enjoy the clip from this great movie, and the memory of the five Sullivan brothers. The Fighting Sullivans, RKO, 1944 [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=26zUEV25nmE"]YouTube- Lessons Lost in Today's World - Lesson #64[/ame] Navy department press release February 2, 1943. The letter of condolence from President Roosevelt to Mrs. Sullivan Dear Mrs. Sullivan: "The knowledge that your five gallant sons are missing in action, against the enemy, inspired me to write you this personal message. I realize full well there is little I can say to assuage your grief. "As the Commander in Chief of the Army and the Navy, I want you to know that the entire nation shares your sorrow. I offer you the condolence and gratitude of our country. We, who remain to carry on the fight, must maintain the spirit in the knowledge that such sacrifice is not in vain. The Navy Department has informed me of the expressed desire of your sons; George Thomas, Francis Henry, Joseph Eugene, Madison Abel, and Albert Leo, to serve on the same ship. I am sure, that we all take pride in the knowledge that they fought side by side. As one of your sons wrote, `We will make a team together that can't be beat.' It is this spirit which in the end must triumph. "Last March, you, Mrs. Sullivan, were designated to sponsor a ship of the Navy in recognition of your patriotism and that of your sons. I am to understand that you are, now, even more determined to carry on as sponsorer. This evidence of unselfishness and courage serves as a real inspiration for me, as I am sure it will for all Americans. Such acts of fate and fortitude in the face of tragedy convince me of the indomitable spirit and will of our people. "I send you my deepest sympathy in your hour of trial and pray that in Almighty God you will find a comfort and help that only He can bring. Very sincerely yours, "/s/ Franklin D. Roosevelt" The Sullivan Brothers

I love The Fighting Sullivans, but I think my favorite war, well post-war movie, is 'The Best Years of Our Lives' - great film!! Myrna Loy & Frederic March - it just don't better then that!

This is awesome! Before we moved, our neighbor "Johnboy" had quite the few chickens. He named them all after Hitchcock's "chicks". We of course gave him mostly all things Hitchcockian for gifts... Christmas/ birthdays, etc. Great collection of photos! Thanks |
