we go a long way back, carmen.
you're one of the best cinema comrades a cinema comrade could have
(still don't like your precious marilyn tho comrade....ha ha ha...well 'cept for Niagra)

cinderella · 03-02-2010, 08:00 PM

That's alright honey, I love her enough for the two of us!!

Yes, we do go back a long way. I am PR, but unfortunately, don't look it. I am more readily taken for Italian of Jewish. I am white, and blond, so even tho we (PR's) have been known as the 'Rainbow People' (way before the rainbow was affiliated with 'gay'. That is because we come in all different shades...

.) My grandparents came from The Canarys - Tenerife on the grand island to be precise. The Canarys are part of Spain - off the coast of North Africa. They have a shuttle ferry that goes from Morroco to The Canarys. In any case, I am very much part of both cultures. Ok, I'm sure this is more info then you want or need, lol.

Thank you for the compliment. You can ask Kam, she's met me and spent time with me, so she can tell you.

Comrade...oh! Officer Krupki is coming on, I LOVE that scene!!! lol

I can't post a pic unless I upgrade my membership - don't think I'll be doing that anytime soon.

As for 'actor themes' I already posted my choice...refer to above posts.

you can post your pic in the gallery without an upgrade.

cinderella · 03-02-2010, 08:16 PM

Really? Didn't know that. I will try.

Ok, so my choice was for Burt Lancaster, and Seven Days in May. This film has both Burt and Kirk Douglas in it, and is a war movie, so I think it would be a good pick seeing we've been discussing war films. What do you think of this film as a choice for discussion?

I love that movie because I really like Kirk Douglas' character's principles in it. For the benefit of those who don't know, this movie is about a military conspiracy and a plot to take over the US government by a general gone Judas against the government (played by Lancaster). This flick is intense in its implications especially in the early 60s at a time we were just coming off the Cold War.

Movies like this and The Manchurian Candidate and Fail-Safe with Henry Fonda were very sensitive in light of the current politics.

As matter of fact, comrade, those three films would make a great FlixMix.
Seven Days in May, The Manchurian Candidate and Fail-Safe

All three were from the 60s, same genre/themes, shot in black and white, and all starring major headliners from the old guard including Lancaster, Douglas, Frederic March, Laurence Harvey, Frank Sinatra, Ava Gardner, Martin Balsam, Angela Lansbury, Henry Fonda et al.

Okay, back to "....May" I like the dialogue and the whole story and movie, really. Good choice, comrade.

cinderella · 03-02-2010, 09:28 PM

Weird, those are exactly the same films I was thinking about! So weird...but glad to know we're on the same tract.
