Biff Grimes would waltz with a strawberry blonde

He'd ne'er leave the girl with the strawberry curls
And th read more

Johnny Eager (1941):What’s the Angle?
Random Pictures Posted by Amy on Nov 30, -0001
Dir. Mervyn LeRoy David Thomson’s The New Biographical Dictionary of Film refers to Johnny Eager (1941) as “fatuous,” which I think unfair. (The IMDb hordes gave it a 7.1, for whatever that’s worth.) Casting the famously good-looking Robert Taylor was something of a gamble; Thomson’s other read more

The Maltese Falcon (1941)
Out of the Past - A Classic Film Blog Posted by Raquel Stecher on Nov 30, -0001
The world's best remake
We hate remakes don't we? Hollywood seems to be money hungry now, milking the last few drops out of the golden teats of brands just to make some dough. Nothing is sacred. All those classics you hold near and dear are just waiting to be butchered by some big studio wanting read more

High Sierra (1941)
Out of the Past - A Classic Film Blog Posted by Raquel Stecher on Nov 30, -0001
I can really sympathize with the guy.
Humphrey Bogart's career as an actor with Warner Bros. studios wasn't all peaches and cream. He struggled with delayed stardom and languished at 3rd and 4th billing parts. Bogart got stuck many roles that were beneath him. It wasn't Bogie's fault. It wasn't read more
