    I forgot to mention, TDH was John Cazale's last movie before he died of cancer. He appeared in four of the biggest and/or best movies of the '70s: The Godfather, The Conversation, The Godfather Part II, and Dog Day Afternoon.

    He was also Meryl Streep's boyfriend at the time of his death.
    I'd say he appeared in 5 of the biggest movies of the '70s, since he was in The Deer Hunter.

    Another piece of trivia is that Cazale only made those 5 films, all of which were nominated for Best Picture. A great actor with an all too short life.

    It sure is. It could get pretty warm in the summer but lots of Rolling Rock to keep you cool. The Conversation gets a lot of play it seems these days, always liked it.

    Watched "The Defiant Ones" today, the first of director Stanley Kramer's "message pictures", with Sidney Poitier & Tony Curtis. An ok film, but Curtis' southern accent (by way of The Bronx) really grates on the ear. Notable also for being the last motion picture appearance of Carl "Alfalfa" Switzer.

    Rio Bravo of course but I remember, The Chase, with Brando and Redford. Looking at her cannon, she's been in a lot of different type roles.

    I like this photo, too:

    She mentions in that interview that Marilyn Monroe was the ultimate sex symbol but I always preferred Angie or Raquel Welch. Welch had the nicer body but Angie oozed sex like no one before and rarely since.

    I agree, I like the second photo as well. Very '60's. I also agree about Marilyn as I think I've said I liked Ann Francis much better. Marilyn was just so constructed. Almost from a kit. The other ladies are much more natural. What made you think of Angie?

    Last month she was on CBS Sunday Morning, a culture & arts kind of show, which is where that clip came from. I didn't see it until this morning.

    Yeah, The Killers ('64) and Point Blank ('67), for two. Not sure of any others.

    I also understand that Jane Russell could make the pot boil. I've seen, Gentleman Prefer Blondes, some time ago.

    This is pretty tripped out:



    I've never seen this, but the entire movie is readily available online.

    Actually, I am familiar with the title and publicity photos of the German silent classic. So, I wanted to share a scene and found this cool "trailer" and liked the soundtrack.

    Seemed perfectly suitable for this group.

    Okay, so it's not B&W, but "Dial M for Murder" is on tonight on TCM at 8. Not one of my favorites, but it's still Hitchcock.

    Yeah, there's not a lot of heavy lifting on screen or by the viewer on this one. Grace Kelly again, is adorable. John Williams as always is the perfect English gentleman.

    I agree, a very polite SOB. For some reason, I find Bob Cummings rather tiring.

    Me, too. He's just bland.
