The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on Oct 6, 2013
GL: No offense, Tim, but did you ever drink a lot or use drugs? TC: No, I’m a teetotaler. I never even smoked. People were always offering me grass or cocaine. I got my own cocaine – my own personality. I AM COCAINE. What do I need that stuff for? GL: So, basically, you didn’t have read more

Repost: The Highways of Heaven
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on Sep 30, 2013
Fifty-eight years ago today, James Dean was driving his Porsche 550 Spyder, nicknamed “Little Bastard,” when he died in a head-on collision with another car. I thought instead of just another pic of he and Timothy from East of Eden (1955), I would share again this article from Movie Star read more
Quote of the Week (336)
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on Sep 29, 2013
Sure, this is a true story, but writer/director Millard Kaufman (who penned BAD DAY AT BLACK ROCK) turns it into B-movie pabulum, right down to a groan-inducing finale. The actors try hard, but it’s a lifeless gig. In fact, the only humor comes from the always-reliable Timothy Carey in an all- read more

Quote of the Week (334)
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on Sep 22, 2013
To give [Robert] Blake his due, he was one of the few people who would allow me to hire my favorite bogeyman, Timothy Carey, and so again I had the pleasure of working with this incorrigible madman. This time, Timothy got a bit too out of control and actually hurt a fellow actor in a scene where he read more

Pic of the Day: “The Killing of a Chinese Bookie” revisited (5)
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on Sep 16, 2013

Quote of the Week (332)
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on Sep 15, 2013
That’s particularly true for his film noir roles. Few debuts in the genre have been more striking or unnerving than Carey’s brief interludes in Andre’ de Toth‘s atmospheric Crime Wave (1954). In the uncredited role of pervert-punk Johnny Haslett, who lives in the seedy Chinat read more
