I really do like his films from the Golden Era. He was quite sinister in The Bribe with Robert Taylor and Ava Gardner.

I watched parts of Vincent Price in The Last Man on Earth last night. I had read the book ages ago and it seemed to be pretty faithful. The other two fim versions are The Omega Man and I am Legend.

Yeah, I heard that Last Man was on last night. One of my film professors years ago was the co-director of that movie. When I told him that I had seen the film, he replied to me, "My condolences!" It actually is not that bad of a film, and does create a certain sense of doom. Omega Man was okay, too, but I prefer the b/w version with Vinnie. Odd how the producers chose Italian nationals to portray American characters (it was filmed in Italy); I think their lines were dubbed.

In Italy? Watched it hoping to recognize any of the stores or streets but came up empty- now I know. I was pretty tired when I watched it and did not notice if it was dubbed but the speaking parts of the other actors seemed off to me. wooden or strange so that may have been the dubbing in effect. Omega Man is has a vibe that is dated to the time it came out but is still an interesting film. I am Legend was pretty good too.

It was filmed at E.U.R., a district in Rome which was constructed, using mostly modernist architecture with limestone, tuff, and marble, for the proposed 1942 World's Fair. I think such a setting added to the austerity of the film. You've got me wanting to watch it again...

No Man of Her Own (1932) Good movie, but I could watch 2 hours of Clark Gable walking around a room and nothing else, so maybe I'm a bit biased 
The Mating Season (1951) Cute movie with Gene Tierney, but Thelma Ritter steals the show.
Easy Living (1937) Loved this movie with Jean Arthur.

You are on a classics-viewing rampage. Did a boxed set arrive? DVR working overtime with TCM? Or do you just love the classics?

Which puts us in mind of the aged joke: Secretary to boss: The invisible man is here for his appointment. Boss: Tell him to wait 'til I can see him.

lol Well, I have the house to myself right now, so I'm taking advantage of it. I made this thread awhile back so I'm picking from there. If I can't find them on NETFLIX I'm watching them on YouTube. Others that aren't on the list I found on YT, because they were listed next to what I was watching.
Oh and yes, I love old movies

Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow (2004) dir. and written by Kerry Conran. I'd watch it more but Missus Hood thinks it's bunk. Watched it with Youngest Hood, who was interested in all the movie references. Way cool stuff~

Metropia is an indie animation in a noir, dystopian near-future right out of Orwell and Kafka, where corporations control the world, and are, of course, evil. Fortunately, some people know the truth, and the resulting story is worth making a movie about. I found it on iTunes.

Last night I watched The Thin Man (1934) Great movie I think I was the last person on earth that hadn't seen it.

You should watch it. Myrna Loy is wonderful and I'm officially in love with William Powell now
