Feh. Daisy Kenyon's her best.

The Screaming Lobster of Challops (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Monday, 2 March 2009 02:09 (fifteen years ago) link

One of her (and Otto's) best but not her best (still Female on the Beach in my book).

Kevin John Bozelka, Monday, 2 March 2009 02:12 (fifteen years ago) link

Then a few hours later is The Fighting Seabees by Edward Ludwig, one of the few reportedly worthy directors Sarris left out of The American Cinema. I've never seen it or anything by Ludwig. Anyone?

It's OK. Straight-up Republic Pictures war melodrama and one of the very few where John Wayne dies.

Fave Ludwig is The Black Scorpion. Track it down

flying squid attack (tipsy mothra), Friday, 24 July 2009 19:59 (fourteen years ago) link

oh man that sounds awesome. I still have a dream about opening a movie theater in Williamsburg and programming it like a freeform college radio station.

More realistically I'd like to program for VH1 classics or WRXP or something.

Your Favorite Saturday Night Thing (Dr Morbius), Thursday, 15 October 2009 00:07 (fourteen years ago) link

wuthering heights is great but then i find merle oberon fascinating.

I was so mad when Alec Baldwin recommended Wuthering Heights on The Essentials but then went on to say how Oberon sucked in this movie. Not cool, Donaghy.
