Robert Mitchum? Far out. Didn't think I could vote in "I'm not gay but if I was...." but I would have expected Paul Newman to be a shoe-in. Dear straight men, I fail to understand your homoerotic desires.

So, I should see "Point Blank" on TCM tonight then?

Yeah, but golly if you could see Prime Cut with the shoot-out in a field of fully grown sunflowers . . .

You should see both!

PB is, as far as I can tell, the best American film of '67.
Bunch of Newman films follow it on TCM (The Long Hot Summer w/ Woodward, Welles, Lansbury, Remick).

Summer has a couple of Newman beefcake shots and a few fat jokes b/w Lansbury and Welles.

I saw it in a revival house a loooong time ago.
The least of these 4 is easily McQueen btw.

His dialogue is really funny bcz the way Marvin implacably reacts... "I want my money."

Burt Lancaster sorely missing here, but yes, Lee Marvin is underappreciated. Point Blank!
― Millsner, Saturday, 12 September 2009 21:23 (fourteen years ago) link
Burt Lancaster is sort of at the tail end of your Errol Flynn and Douglas Fairbankses, and then he stopped grinning so wide and because something else entirely.

Lee Marvin doesn't write for Pitchfork. Just sayin'.
