    Which is your favorite Golden Age movie studio

    I think that might have as much to do with the availability of their classic films as anything else. MGM, Warner and RKO have huge portions of their classic library available to modern audiences, you can't say the same of Paramount for instance. Also interesting to note that 3 of those 4...

    The Future Of Film Making

    While that is probably true, a wider frame 1.85, and particularly 2.35, more closely aproximates the human field of few. Some, myself included, find it easier to compose for a wider screen. I really don't think wide screen is a gimmick, though the reasons for switching to it in the 50's...

    Which is your favorite Golden Age movie studio

    The Bond films were and are produced by EON Productions, a company setup by Albert R. Broccoli and Harry Saltzman to produce the films. The films themselves are owned by a company called Danjaq setup by the producers as a holding company. UA put up the money and was a distributor only. In many...

    Which is your favorite Golden Age movie studio

    Being a lover of Film Noir, my top 3 would be RKO, Warner, and Fox. All three studios, particularly Fox and RKO, regularly made film noir of the highest quality. And of course I LOVE the Fox CinemaScope films of the early 50s. It is a little hard to compare Monogram with Republic, as it was...

    "Other movie's music in OTHER movies"

    Zorro: The Gay Blade (1981) uses Max Steiner's, themes and much of the score (re-recorded for this movie) for The Adventures of Don Juan (1948) Doug

    "Other movie's music in OTHER movies"

    Over the Rainbow was written for Oz so of course that is what it is most associated with. I Wake Up Screaming also uses "Street Scene" written by Alfred Newman for the movie Street Scene (1931). This bit of music was used as the main titles of MANY Fox films noir, including The Dark Corner...

    The last full service gas station I remember in my area was when I was a kid. That would have been around 1971 or so. Doug

    If you could solve just one mystery....

    I don't know why I didn't think of this one before, after all it happened in my home town. Did Winnie Ruth Judd really murder and cut up the body of her roommate, put it in a trunk and ship it from Phoenix to Los Angeles? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winnie_Ruth_Judd

    Christmas scenes in movies

    Die Hard (1988) The whole movie takes place on Christmas eve, but decidedly NOT a Christmas movie. The Poseidon Adventure (1972) Actually takes place on New Years Eve, but they climb up the Christmas Tree to escape the ball room. Lethal Weapon (1987) Takes place at Christmas time and...
