...Where did you get that hat, where did you get that tile? Isn't it a nobby one and just the proper style! I should like to have one just the same as that. Whereever I go they'd shout "hello, where did you get that hat?..."

Just saw it yesterday on the big screen at my loccal 1920's art deco cinema (they show old movies every so often). Wonderful stuff.

"Bad Day at Black Rock". This was a pretty good movie, I like Spencer Tracy and Robert Ryan. The scene where Ernest Borgnine brags about being "half horse, half alligator" was especially good.

This was the movie shown at Heritage Square on Saturday, really enjoyed it too!
The recently-founded Flicker Alley presents their first DVD release with The Garden of Eden, a charming but obscure silent comedy directed by Lewis Milestone (All Quiet on the Western Front, Ocean's Eleven) and starring Corinne Griffith, a once-popular and now nearly-forgotten star of silent cinema.
She plays a would-be opera singer who winds up working in a burlesque house. But she gets a break when she goes on vacation with the company's costume designer, who turns out to be a baroness. And, of course, she falls in love with a cad who turns out to be a swell guy after all.
The Garden of Eden DVD looks amazingly good considering that it was transferred from a 16mm print. The disc includes reproductions of the original press book, as well as two wonderful silent shorts, the Christmas-y The Toy Shop and a funny trifling "documentary" looking at some of Hollywood's crazy architecture.
Starring: Corinne Griffith, Louise Dresser, Lowell Sherman, Maude George, Charles Ray, Edward Martindel, Freeman Wood, Hank Mann
Written by: Avery Hopwood, Hans Kraly, George Marion Jr., based on a play by Rudolf Bernnauer, Rudolph Oesterreicher

I have never seen The Unholy Three; how was it?Originally Posted by Schofields
THE UNHOLY THREE was on the other morning.
followed by FREAKS.
Freaks is truly unsettling: were these folks exploited by the film-makers? I guess I mean more than the circus sideshow did...
When I saw this on TCM many years ago, my eight year old son left the room, not because he was scared, but because of the insults and verbal cruelty directed towards the "freaks." He said it awfull the way they were treated and he couldn't stand it.
Let me dig this solid cat and see what jumps in that wig of his that's causing all the flip on the vine.
This last weekend it was 'The Bachelor & the Bobby-Soxer', 'Love Crazy' & 'Coraline'.
Enjoyed all three very much.
Cheers!
