    Film Noir... with a French Twist.....

    Melville and Gabin I agree. Jean-Pierre Melville is a terrific director- one of my real favourites. His films noir are all excellent and he worked with most of the great French actors of his day. Alain Delon was one of his best regulars. The movie I regard as his absolute best has not yet...

    The perfect movie

    I'd suggest VERTIGO for the perfect movie. It's wonderfully filmed and wonderfully told, pure magic from one of the greatest men ever to make films.

    Does anyone remember Marjorie Beebe?

    Marjorie Beebe Indeed. Mabel Normand of course was the principal love of his life, though Sennett in his relationships never seemed ready or willing or able to progress them. At heart he seemed to prefer the life of a bachelor with his golfing and drinking buddies. There seem to have been...

    Memories of Cinemas, Memories of Films

    I grew up in Britain in the 1950s. Perhaps the Golden Age of Hollywood had passed by but examples of it were still being shown nightly on British television. In those days my home town had six cinemas; now to its great disgrace it has none! You have to go out of town to a sort of shopping...

    Does anyone remember Marjorie Beebe?

    Does anyone remember Marjorie Beebe?

    Marjorie Beebe Yes I will contact Eddie Brandt. Thanks for that. That's a good idea, Marc. I've been in touch with that excellent establishment a good few times in the past and I may well have already asked them about "The Farmer's Daughter" but I can't remember. In fact the last time I was...

    Does anyone remember Marjorie Beebe?

    Marjorie Beebe That's interesting. I must renew my efforts to track it down. I've always had a feeling it might turn up one day. Good that she made enough of an impression to enable you to recall her so many years later. I guess she was a slapstick gal who turned up a little bit late for...

    Does anyone remember Marjorie Beebe?

    Marjorie Beebe HoosierDaddy you immediately picked up on "The Farmer's Daughter" when Marc Chevalier began this thread. Have you actually seen it? I've hunted high and low for the thing but without success. It was possibly her greatest role; she got lavish praise bestowed on her for it. And...

    Does anyone remember Marjorie Beebe?

    Marjorie Beebe I've only just discovered this site and I'm about to go away for 10 days but I'm delighted to know that there are fellow Marjorie Beebe fans out there. I'd love to talk more to you all about her. In fact right now I'm putting together an article on her for a magazine- its...
