I am an avid reader who follows a lot of the posts in the powder room, moving pictures and the golden era, though I have not really posted much in the last couples years that I've been a member...

    Movie Quote Game

    Easy one -Do you love her? -YES! But don't hold that against me, I'm a little screwy myself! It happened one night! "There is a name for you, ladies, but it isn't used in high society... outside of a kennel." Another easy one right back!

    Film Noir

    Bogie Everyone always forgets In a Lonely Place! I think this is one of bogie's best, especially since he also produced it under his new independent studio that he started. It really has some great film noir defining lines in it too. Some of my favorites are: Dixon Steele: There's no...

    The Blues Brothers

    this is one of those movies that is great to put on in the background though, or when you're driving if you have a dvd player in your car, because without the visual it causes you to really focus on the one-liners. I found it much funnier. a personal favorite of mine though is Carrie Fishers...

    UGH! Another remake.

    might I remind you that the "original" house of was from the fifties was really also a remake of the Mystoery of the Wax Museum and that the best things it had going for it were technicolor and being 3-d. and yet hollywood felt the need to again remake it. Hollywood has always remade pictures...

    To Have and Have Not

    Hemmingway would later note that his favortie screen version of this book was infact not the To Have and Have not that we have grown to know and love, but the other version starring John Garfield. I too feel that In a Lonely Place is commonly overlooked. It has soooo many great film noir lines...

    Poorly Costumed Westerns

    I do that all the time, where I just follow threads and rearely post, but lately I've gotten into it. I too love bad movies, especially the early thirties ones with Roobert Montgomery, every one of them is awful and I watch the again and again anyways.

    Poorly Costumed Westerns

    I completely agree, that's actually what I'm trying to prove. Some people have done period films right, like Gilbert Adrian in Romeo and Juliet, and he made a valient attempt with Marie Antionette until Norma Shearer stepped in. Any particularily bad western you know of? I really do get a...

    Classic One Liners and Quotes

    that movie actually has so many great lines, like: "It was his story against mine, but of course, I told my story better." "What does it matter what I think? I'm the guy who tried to talk Selznick out of doing "Gone with the Wind"!"
