    Film Noir?

    Well most of it is told from the policeman's pov, but the actual plot with the girl being murdered, blackmail and a wrong man accused seem right out of noir to me. Doug

    Superman Classic! New Cartoon Short!

    Not too surprising when you consider that Sky Captain was heavily influenced by the Max Fleischer Superman cartoons. Doug

    Film Noir?

    Mystery Street is an excellent film, and one of the earliest films for Director John Sturges ( The Magnificent Seven, The Great Escape, Ice Station Zebra) and photographed by the amazing John Alton. It is included in Warner's Film Noir Classic Collection Vol. 4. That is a VERY good collection...

    The World According to Jack Webb

    Jack Webb fans should check out the 1948 film He Walked By Night, starring Richard Basehart as the heavy. Jack Webb has a small part in it as a lab tech. The film is CLEARLY the model for what became Dragnet on radio, and later TV. It even starts with the narrator talking about the virtues and...

    George Hurrell 40s style photography

    No that is the actress's house. Its an early 1950's ranch, that still has the original stove and many other of the features that came with the house originally. The car was a 1950 Cadillac Eldorado, of course! :) Doug

    Recommended movies from the golden era only

    I think you could safely include the 50's in the golden age, at least as far as Hollywood goes. Doug

    Woody Allen and Vintage Period Films

    I couldn't agree more. This is my favorite Woody Allen film. Doug

    Vintage professions you'd like to see come back.....

    Actual professional motion picture projectionists. Not just some kid to goes up into the booth, presses the button and walks away until the buzzer tells him the movie has stopped! Doug

    Unpopular movie opinions...

    I don't particularly have a problem with the story or even the neon special effects. I'm a huge ELO fan so the music is awesome. It was also fantastic to see Gene Kelly dancing again. (best scene in the movie) My problem with the film is simply that the acting isn't even up to the level of a...

    Great post-classic noir.

    Many people think that the classic noir period ends with Touch of Evil (1958). I'm not sure I agree with that. Doug

    The Future Of Film Making

    Both "It Came From Outer Space" and "The Creature From The Black Lagoon" were VERY good films and use the 3D with restraint. Both films were directed by Jack Arnold, and he used 3D as a story telling tool rather than just poking you in the eye every 5 min. Doug

    The Future Of Film Making

    Alice in Wonderland was NOT photographed in 3D, it was a 3D conversion, and not a very good one at that. Doug

    Kansas City Confidential coming to blu-ray

    Its a public domain release, but they say they are coming from the original 35mm elements. If the quality is as good as MGM's DVD release, it should look fantastic. Doug http://www.blu-ray.com/movies/Kansas-City-Confidential-Blu-ray/18818/
