    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Watched Kansas City Confidential again, for the I-can't-rememberth time. John Payne gets to cover all the emotional bases (regular joe framed, bitter against the system, driven to find out who pulled the job that dragged him into the crime, tough guy when the going gets tough), and Preston...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Wife vs. Secretary is one my favorites; indeed, packed with star power. Your recap of Gable, Harlow, Loy is, as always, spot on~

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    Two made-for-tv movies, off the Hallmark Channel: Autumn in the Vineyard: attractive young folks both claim ownership to a vineyard, and relational highjacks ensue. Then, Garage Sale Mystery: The Deadly Room, the one about the real estate agent trying to move a historic mansion.

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Dunkirk, at the movies, last week. Here at home, High Noon; hadn't seen it in decades, but still powerful. Also, Johnny Guitar, with Joan Crawford, Sterling Hayden, Mercedes McCambridge, and a whole bunch others actors that we all know. McCambridge steals the movie, IMHO, from Crawford. And...

    What Was The Last Radio Program You Heard?

    Christmas in July... the last two days of our road trip my wife and I listened to all twenty-six episodes of The Cinnamon Bear. We interspersed it with Burns and Allen, Phil Harris and Alice Faye, The New Adventures of Michael Shayne, and The Great Gildersleeve. She had not heard the syndicated...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    If you take Flamingo Road for what it is, an overheated melodrama, filled with characters who border on caricature, performed by people at the top of their game (i.e., who got their chops), then it is thoroughly enjoyable. (Should this be on the guilty pleasures thread?)

    Instead of a true 7 & 7, a bourbon and 7.

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    On Monday, The Battle of Algiers. Yesterday, What Price Hollywood?, the film upon which A Star is Born is based. Missus Shellhammer had never seen it and was quite taken by it.

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    ...aaannnddd, Detour (1945) Tom Neal, Ann Savage, directed by Edgar Ulmer. Having watched this over the years, the question is, Are there any prints out there that are not blurry and fuzzy? Or was PRC so low-budget that this was the best they could offer? Still, for a picture that clocks in at...

    We liked it a lot, but you are right about Lithgow's Churchill.

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    We got about as far as you and quit. Is it trying to be a faux-Shakespeare character study? An attack on monarchy, or on the current royal family, or just Charles himself? We will be happy to wait for the return of Victoria...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Witness for the Prosecution (1957), directed by Billy Wilder, whose birthday it is today. I had watched it years and years ago, but still was surprised by the ending. Charles Laughton out-Laughtons himself here.

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    We watched A Tree Grows in Brooklyn recorded from TCM, and, as they do, they filled up the time to the top of the hour with a short, this one featuring Glen Gray and the Casa Loma Orchestra. The short was directed by Jean Negulsco, who had a solid career directing shorts. But this one was...

    Last night? The very-est last of the whatever-it-was-scotch that was reasonably priced. On the rocks.
