Last Non Western You Watched

Quote from Rocklin

Someone posted that they had watched The Tanks Are Coming 1951 and said it was a good movie, I think it was a great movie a different kind of war movie with old actors giving a good performance.

Saddle up, Lock an Load.

Twas moi who said it was a good movie. Also, the movie is a plagerized story stolen from Staff Sergeant Lafayette G. Pool--who in the movie--was played by Steve Cochran (S.Sgt Sullivan) Pool had tried to sue Warner Brothers because they stole his story and changed enough facts of the story in order to beat Pool in the lawsuit. His info can be found on the 3rd Armored Division website.

Also, im currently looking for movie stills from that movie.

Oh and, you might want to try: Breakthrough w/ John Agar, David Brian, Frank Lovejoy and Paul Picerni--that movie is another treasure of a War Movie. I just won 16 original stills for that movie and they are posted in the titles thread.

Goldfinger

"Blackboard Jungle" on TCM today.

More season 2 eps of: The Adventures of Robin Hood. One who guested in two episodes I saw today--was: Edward Mulhare.

Ahhhh, and many thanks and PM sent. Ill be looking forward to seeing your choices,

Grosse Pointe Blank with John Cusack, was a fun film with some interesting ideas in places but was equally flat at times aswell.

Pittsburgh, a really interesting look at Duke as a kind of villain who redeems himself at the last minute, Duke was good as a scrooge esque egomaniac and he worked really well with Scott as both friends and adversaries. The ending was a little sickly but it served it's purpose at the time I guess.

One of Our Aircraft is Missing

It's A Wonderful World with Jimmy Stewart and Claudete Colbert, was a fun crime/mystery comedy that started out suprisingly darkly, Stewart's character is alot more hard nosed than the type of characters he would usually play at the time and he worked well with Colbert, did a nice job of building suspense and mixing comedy with seriousness.

The Great Escape a real great movie starring lots of big names

more of: The Adventures of Robin Hood. More guest start included: Edward Mulhare and Nigel Green (as Soldiers and such)

“Ganger Squad”
This movie surprised me…I liked it! I heard so many bad reviews, I didn’t know what to expect. Plus it had Sean Penn in it (as the bad guy), and I try to avoid his films. Like most modern action films, the violence was graphic, and the language might be a little strong for some, but story-wise, it was a good old fashion good guy vs. bad guy gangster movie done in the style of “The Untouchables”. It was based on the true story of how L.A. mob boss Mickey Cohen was taken down. (Of course “based on the true story” means you tell a little bit of truth mixed in with enough lies to make it interesting!)
A fun little period piece action movie.

Paul, was a fun comedy with a really good cast, one for the sci-fan fans (i'm not one myself) I can watch Jason Bateman in anything though.

In Which We Serve

Seven Sinners w/ Duke and Dietrich. I thought this was the weakest of their collaborations although I still enjoyed it, it was a really slow burner and focused much more on Dietrich and her entourage than Duke. The fight at the end was excellent though.

City Heat 1984 a nice comedy action movie starring Clint Eastwood & Burt Reynolds.

On Our Merry Way a film split into three short stories led by Burgess Meredith with Fred McMurray, James Stewart and Henry Fonda. Was enjoyable and funny kind of movie, pretty much mindless entertainment, Stewart and Fonda in particular were hilarious in their segment and it has made me interested in taking another look at McMurray. The version I had was the original before the Charles Laughton footage was cut and his segment replaced one with Dorothy Lamour, i'd imagine it was better for it.

More eps of Robin Hood which also included as guests of the week: Edward Mulhare and Donald Pleasance.

Ditto--and this time Mulhare and Pleasance were not in any eps.
