For Classic Movie Fans

cinderella · 02-26-2010, 01:26 PM

I was watching this too - not one of my faves, as I'm not that keen on war movies, altho admitedly, there are some wonderful war flicks. I fell asleep before finishing it. Lee Marvin has a very strong personality - to me, he is the epitome of 'macho'. Indeed, he can be comfortable in his skin playing a gay man, or any 'deviant' role - who could ever question his manhood? Certainly not I!!!

John Casavettes who plays Franco in The Dirty Dozen won an Oscar for his performance. Everytime I see him, I can't help thinking of 'Rosmary's Baby', lol. He also directed, and worked behind the scenes alot. Married to Gina Rawlins, their son, John Jr. is a director himself.

Yeah, what's up with the Gump marathon?? I dislike AMC, and rarely watch it unless I come across a really good film they may be showing...it irritates me to no end that they have commercials. And if they *must*, good grief, why can't they show 'em BETWEEN movies!!!! grrrrrr.

Oh, btw, Ol' Jet...West Side Story will be showing soon - I think next Tuesday, but you can check TCM's schedule to make sure.

Ben Hur on on Sunday at 8pm.

Question - how do you like the 'between-the-films' discussions, commentaries, dialougues that go on? Robert Osborne, whom I admire greatly - the man's a 'walking encyclopedia' is very informative. I also love his 'guest programmers', interviews, etc. I have been watching TCM on a daily basis (well, almost) for 15 years - since it started. I have learned a wealth of background info on everything to do with Hollywood, so very interesting. I also have a large collection of books on Hollywood, it's history and beginnings, the studio system, bios on the stars, etc. I have Volumes I & II of Hollywood Bablyon - a very interesting (and eye-opening) insight to juicy scandal and little known facts about the Icons we love so much!!! A good read indeed!!!!

in his Playboy interview from January 1969. He further stated that he would have no problem playing gay
characters on screen, since he was secure with his own sexual orientation."
I'm watching The Dirty Dozen, a helluva lot more entertaining
than Forrest Gump.

See ya at the movies.

Another Simone Signoret film I'd forgotten about, but facsinating:
"Diabolique' - have you seen that one, Ol' Jet?

Oh, btw, I've been meaning to ask for the longest...did you ever get to see 'Sweet Smell of Success'? If so, what did you think of it?

Jet · 02-26-2010, 09:07 PM

I was 5 years old when West Side Story was released in 1961.
I don't remember seeing it until I was maybe 7 or 8 at the drive-in with my parents. I loved the music and
choreoghraphy especially the Blues Promenade in the gym, The Jet Song, Somewhere, Tonight and Maria.
I'm glad we have these actors and performances on film, remaining timeless, and the sensitive,
intense Romeo and Juliet romance of West Side Story.

I could go on about Robert Wise, Jerome Robbins and Oscars and all of that, but I have a more of a heartfelt view.
I chose my screen name and composed my signature montage around West Side Story because if I could be anywhere,
anytime, anyone it would be a Jet in West Side Story—at least for a day. I like it's raw energy, it's streetwise edge,
the nuances of the early 60s, and the old school romance of falling in love at first sight.

That said....

This is my small tribute to the people that were so fortunate to make it happen and who they are now.
Thanks for reminding us that it will be on Cinderella. Long live West Side Story.

From WEST SIDE STORY: HOMOSEXUAL SPACE OPERA AT ITS FINEST by Edmund Yeo:
"a dystopian America in which menacing street gangs control New York, and violence (both physical and emotional) and repressed homosexual attraction are sublimated into spontaneous, flamboyant eruptions of singing and dancing."

From Robert Hilferty:
"IN THE 1950’s, four gay men of genius got together and created what is arguably the greatest Broadway show ever. The brainchild of choreographer Jerome Robbins, West Side Story was initially going to be called “East Side Story” and focus on Jewish–Catholic tensions. But once the more dramatic gang war idea took hold, pitting white Americans against Puerto Ricans on rough turf on Manhattan’s Upper West Side, the team’s imagination was fired up. West Side Story was Stephen Sondheim’s first Broadway show as a lyricist and Leonard Bernstein’s fourth Broadway score (after On the Town, Wonderful Town, and the Broadway operetta Candide). Arthur Laurents, later famous for Gypsy, wrote the book.
West Side Story was a groundbreaking musical tragedy with two corpses on stage at the end of Act I. The dance-driven vehicle featured a stunning score with operatic and symphonic sophistication, an eclectic mix of memorable tunes unified through the use of the “tritone”—an interval of three dissonant whole notes that produced a feeling of tension or dread (you can hear it clearly at the beginning of “Maria”). The ever-resourceful Bernstein even included a jazzy 12-tone fugue in his number, “Cool.”
The show opened in 1957 and had a successful run of 732 performances. However, it lost the Tony for Best Musical to the more upbeat The Music Man. In 1961, a movie version starring Natalie Wood was released, nabbing ten Oscars. The LP of the movie soundtrack sold like hotcakes."

Love it!
And what's not to like about Anybodys?

Remember bundles, comrade?
I want to suggest mixes of movies that work well together for night of popcorn and nostalgia. This is for the benefit of anyone isn't familiar with great movies and who would like to learn. I could do dozens of these. But two movies that come to mind for a night of romantic tearjerkers, are Made For Each Other, 1939 with James Stewart and Carole Lombard and Penny Serenade, 1941 with Cary Grant and Irene Dunn. Same themes—two great stories about marriage, struggles and heartache. Bring your Kleenex and plan on enjoying two classically tender movies. Here are a couple of samples....

I've never seen Diabolique aired. Would you believe twice "Sweet ...Success" aired I missed it, lol. But i like that kind of drama, Lancaster, Curtis etc. so I'll watch for it again.

Triple feature mix of size-mic proportions for an evening of B movie pleasure.

The Amazing Colossal Man, 1957
Attack of the 50 Foot Woman, 1958
The Incredible Shrinking Man, 1957

The Amazing Colossal Man
Lt. Col. Glenn Manning is inadvertently exposed to a plutonium bomb blast at Camp Desert Rock. Though burned over 90% of his body, he survives, and begins to grow in size. As he grows, his heart and circulatory system fail to keep pace with his growth, and he is gradually losing his mind as a result of reduced blood supply to his brain. He reaches 50 feet tall before his growth is stopped. By this time he has become insane. He escapes and wreaks havoc upon Las Vegas before he is finally stopped.

Attack of the 50 Foot Woman
Attack of the 50 Foot Woman tells the story of Nancy Archer, a wealthy alcoholic who cannot tame her blatantly cheating husband. Her troubles increase when she encounters an alien in the back deserts of California and no one believes her because they think she is drunk. When Nancy grows to a height of 50 ft. as a result of radiation exposure from contact with the alien, she is finally in a position when she can no longer be ignored.

The Incredible Shrinking Man
Scott Carey and his wife Louise are sunning themselves on their cabin cruiser, the small craft adrift on a calm sea. While his wife is below deck, a low mist passes over him. Scott, lying in the sun, is sprinkled with glittery particles that quickly evaporate. Later he is accidentally sprayed with an insecticide while driving and, in the next few days, he finds that he has begun to shrink. First just a few inches, so that his clothes no longer fit, then a little more. Soon he is only three feet tall, and a national curiosity. At six inches tall he can only live in a doll's house and even that becomes impossible when his cat breaks in. Scott flees to the cellar, his wife thinks he has been eaten by the cat and the door to the cellar is closed, trapping him in the littered room where, menaced by a giant spider, he struggles to survive.

See ya at the movies....

But this one is a favorite with Barbara Stanwyck and Clifton Webb

their son, Norman, is not really his.

The scene starts about 2:30 into this clip.

I hope this doesn't come off as sounding pompous, or discourage folks that are not as knowledgeable into not participating - but it's such a pleasure to chat with you guys. You are both so knowledgeable and informed. I've tried starting a similar thread on another site, but with the exception of a couple of peeps, all I'm getting is titles, and 'Yeah, I liked that one', etc. No in-depth discussions which was what I was hoping for.

I suggested assigning a film for all of us to watch, then discuss. That too didn't work out as well as I would've liked it to. Perhaps it's my fault not having very good moderating skills, or perhaps not enough structure, whatever the reason...it's not working.

On this thread I am feeling more 'fulfilled' in my search for discussion, and the vids & commentaries are awesome. Yes, we may be 'all over the place', but I am enjoying this immensely.

Ol' Jet, I knew of your love for WSS - that's why I mentioned it. And you prob *were* a Jet in another life!!

cinderella · 02-27-2010, 07:25 AM

One of my great fantacies is to be a guest programmer on TCM. Not only would I get to meet and chat with my idol - Robert Osborne, but I'd get to pick 3 great films!! Question - which 3 would you pick, and why? I know it's very hard to pick just 3, but if you had to, which would they be? Here's my choice:

1. My Cousin Rachel (Richard Burton's American debut) - because it's never been aired, and is a great Gothic romance, along the lines of Wuthering Heights (another favorite of mine)

2. Witness for the Prosecution - just because it's an awesome Billie Wilder film, and they just don't show it enough!

3. Judgement at Nuremburg (what an incredible cast!!) - reason, same as #2.

I admire Robert Osborne totally. I did post the cover of Hollywood Babylon, the first edition earlier, don't know if you saw it. I didn't read the second one, but I was fascinated with the scandals etc. I have Hollywood coffee table hardbacks back home in storage, The MGM Story, 50 Years of Movies and The Movie Stars. They were given to me as gifts from my mom and friends. Anything I learned about movies just came from liking them.

Oh, btw, I've been meaning to ask for the longest...did you ever get to see 'Sweet Smell of Success'? If so, what did you think of it?

You are both so knowledgeable and informed. I've tried starting a similar thread on another site, but with the exception of a couple of peeps, all I'm getting is titles, and 'Yeah, I liked that one', etc. No in-depth discussions which was what I was hoping for. I suggested assigning a film for all of us to watch, then discuss. That too didn't work out as well as I would've liked it to. Perhaps it's my fault not having very good moderating skills, or perhaps not enough structure, whatever the reason...it's not working. On this thread I am feeling more 'fulfilled' in my search for discussion, and the vids & commentaries are awesome. Yes, we may be 'all over the place', but I am enjoying this immensely. Ol' Jet, I knew of your love for WSS - that's why I mentioned it. And you prob were a Jet in another life!!

Not only would I get to meet and chat with my idol - Robert Osborne, but I'd get to pick 3 great films!! Question - which 3 would you pick, and why? I know it's very hard to pick just 3, but if you had to, which would they be? Here's my choice: 1. My Cousin Rachel (Richard Burton's American debut) - because it's never been aired, and is a great Gothic romance, along the lines of Wuthering Heights (another favorite of mine) 2. Witness for the Prosecution - just because it's an awesome Billie Wilder film, and they just don't show it enough! 3. Judgement at Nuremburg (what an incredible cast!!) - reason, same as #2.
