    Ladies...

    I am an devilishly handsome and fabulously wealthy man with a sparkling wit and endless barrels of smarts. I am looking for sultry someones to lavish with sweet, sweet love. If you like mink, truffles, and diamonds, than give me a jingle.

    Denim jacket help desperately needed

    506XX with the pocket flap. S506XX with a plain patch pocket (flap removed due to fabric rationing). Both models are oftened referred to as "Type 1" jackets.

    30's~40's Work Boots

    Browse an old Sears catalog from the 20's and you'll see speed laces already present on many of the boots.

    Five that are Seriously Underrated. (Under, not Over)

    Drats, I am wrong again. I was under the mistaken impression that it was a very well known film considered a classic by many. My apologies.

    Boy, 12, Sticks Gum on $1.5M Painting

    I love that kid! Ah...memory lane. Most of greatest childhood experiences involved some kind of defacement or vandalism. The devil made him do it. I'd vote for whatever office he runs for.

    McGregor Drizzler or Baracuta G-9...

    I had a black Harrington in my *ahem* more closey-cropped years back in the mid eighties, purchased in London. Now, whenever I see one I think of the Cockney Rejects' epic song "Oi! Oi! Oi!". In it they chime, "So put your boots and Harrington on and kick down that f****n' wall!" Them were the...

    Five that are Seriously Underrated. (Under, not Over)

    Leslie Howard classed up even the dullest pictures he appeared in. Have you seen 49TH PARALLEL? What a great movie! Another underrated anti-Nazi propaganda flick. Stellar cast includes Howard, Laurence Olivier, and Raymond Massey. Directed by the GREAT Michael Powell.

    Good Night and Good Luck

    I just discovered this thread. What fscinating stuff. McCarthy a hero indeed! In "real" life I am considered fairly conservative among my friends, but compared to some on this site I feel like a Pinko Commie Liberal! Amazing.

    Five that are Seriously Underrated. (Under, not Over)

    I'm VERY often wrong, but I was under the impression that the original THE MANCHURIAN CANDIDATE is generally rated as one of the greatest thrillers of all-time. My five, in no particular order: MIAMI BLUES An obscure little gem of a crime story. Funny, sad, touching. The great Fred Ward at...

    Five that are Seriously Overrated...

    IIRC, in my Penguin edition of THE THIRD MAN AND THE FALLEN IDOL, Greene contradicts the quoted statement. While it's true that Reed approached Greene with the notion of making a Berlin film, Greene says that he insisted that he write the book (a novella really) first and then hammer out the...

    Laundry

    Last year I went to a theatrical supply wholesaler and purchased a small model professional garment steamer made by Jiffy, it was about $200. Haven't been to a dry cleaner since.

    Ralph Lauren Whitely Pants

    I have several pairs of RRL 30's style pants, both dress and work pants. They all have high rises, suspender buttons, button flies (flys?), and cinch backs. Well made too, surprisingly. Excellent fabrics. Much too expensive to purchase retail, but they pop up in thrift stores often and, of...

    Religion in the 40's & 50's

    That's awfully assumptive of you. For the record I was raised a Lutheran (I am originally from Minnesota), though I no longer particpate in organized religion. I just can't stand people unjustly slandering the folks who brought us all-time greats like Jesus, Freud, Einstein, Superman, and Koufax.

    Religion in the 40's & 50's

    Anti-semites, whether brazen or thinly veiled, are the lowest of kind of scum. I suppose it was naive of me to expect better from certain members of this forum. Congrats on the ruination of a promising thread.

    Classy.

    Pencil Mustache

    Exactly. I'm certain some dilligent research would even produce an old advertisement or two hawking a coloring agent or wax of some sort. What brand of wax do you use? Is it available locally to you or do you buy it online? I ask being a redbeard myself.

    Five that are Seriously Overrated...

    Again, like a lot of the films I find overrated, I actually like THE APARTMENT. However, it has a achieved a critically untouchable status I don't think it merits. It's second tier Billy Wilder who, at the peak of his powers, was obviously able to make a better film than most even while...

    Favorite of all time and why

    While I agree with a good deal of what you are saying (regarding shades of gray), I think that perhaps you are being a bit cantankerous here, basically pulling rank, complaing, and generally putting people down. These threads are in the name of good fun. A lot of us are film buffs, collectors...
