Pic of the Day: Autographed “Minnie and Moskowitz” still
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on Sep 10, 2013
Today’s pic is my latest eBay acquisition! It’s an autographed still from Minnie and Moskowitz (1971). The dedication is hard to read but it looks like “To Mary.” The back says “Timothy Carey” and “Motion Pix – 1972.” This one has the double dis read more
Quote of the Week (330)
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on Sep 8, 2013
Since this book doesn’t have an index, and I haven’t read the whole thing (it’s quite the hefty tome), this quote has only recently come to my attention. I had not heard this before, and I honestly can’t vouch for its veracity. Seymour Cassel mentioned nothing about this duri read more
Pic of the Day: “The Second Time Around” French lobby card
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on Sep 5, 2013
Today’s pic is an unusual one. It’s a French lobby card for Vincent Sherman‘s The Second Time Around (1961). The French title is La Farfelue de l’Arizona, which roughly translates to The Wacky Lady of Arizona. Okay then! Timothy, as bad guy Bonner, faces down Sheriff Burns (f read more
Video of the Week: “Beach Blanket Bingo” (2)
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on Sep 4, 2013
As summer wanes, we once again revisit Beach Blanket Bingo (1965), thanks to the fine folks at Movieclips.com. Here’s the end of the film, as South Dakota Slim battles all comers in defense of Sugar Kane (Linda Evans), who looks really confused. The day is saved by Frankie Avalon – we ha read more
Pic of the Day: “Ransom for a Dead Man” revisited (2)
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on Sep 2, 2013
It’s Labor Day here in the US, so let’s celebrate the working man (and woman) by revisiting Bert, provider of the world’s finest chili. He first appeared in “Ransom for a Dead Man,” the very first episode of the legendary Columbo detective series. It was first broadcast read more
Quote of the Week (328)
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on Sep 1, 2013
I told him [James Dean] where I lived in L.A. (by choice in the real skid row area) and how I spent so much time at the 5-4 Ballroom, dancing, doing snake hips and really going with that tribal beat. “You have to go there some time with me,” I said. “It’s a gasser. They have real rhythm and read more
Happy Birthday to ME!
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on Aug 30, 2013
OK, it’s tomorrow. But since I don’t usually post on Saturdays, and I’ll be busy doing birthday stuff anyways, I’m doing the birthday post today. And if you’ve been following this blog for the last two years, you know what I post on my birthday. The tune is “Tule read more
Pic of the Day: “The Boy and the Pirates” revisited (6)
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on Aug 29, 2013
Today we revisit Bert I. Gordon‘s The Boy and the Pirates (1960). The boy, Jimmy (Charles Herbert), meets the pirates, including Morgan, Blackbeard (Murvyn Vye) and Snipe (Paul Guilfoyle). They appear to be skeptical of Jimmy’s claim that there is a genie (Joe Turkel) in that bottle. Vy read more
Video of the Week: “Convicts 4″ (2)
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on Aug 28, 2013
Today, the eighty-third birthday anniversary of the amazing Ben Gazzara, we present again a clip from the prison biopic Convicts 4 (1962), directed by Millard Kaufman. It features Timothy’s first appearance in the film, and it is certainly memorable. As we all know, Tim and Gazzara appeared to read more
Julie Harris 1925 – 2013
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on Aug 25, 2013
Instead of the usual Sunday Quote of the Week, I’ve chosen to mark the passing of one of the most honored and gifted performers of the Broadway stage, films and television, Julie Harris. She passed away yesterday at the age of 87, reportedly from congestive heart failure. She and Timothy appea read more
Pic of the Day: “East of Eden” (1955) revisited (3)
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on Aug 23, 2013
We close the work week with another look at Elia Kazan‘s East of Eden (1955). Joe the bouncer drags off Cal Trask (James Dean) after the latter’s confrontation with his mother, brothel madam Kate (Jo Van Fleet). In his earlier scene with Dean, Timothy’s delivery was apparently no read more
Pic of the Day: “Fast-Walking” revisited (4)
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on Aug 22, 2013
Our pic today revisits Fast-Walking (1982), the prison drama directed by James B. Harris, the co-producer of Paths of Glory (1957) and the man who fired Timothy from that film. Ill-smelling junkie con Bullet appears delighted by the business plan being outlined to him by Wasco (Tim McIntire). Harri read more
Video of the Week: “The Killing” (2)
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on Aug 21, 2013
Another great video from the folks at Movieclips.com! This is Timothy’s big scene from Stanley Kubrick‘s The Killing (1956), featuring the great James Edwards. Tim’s character here, Nikki Arcane, has been called racist, but I honestly don’t think he is. Note how he looks away read more
Pic of the Day: “Superstar” revisited (4)
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on Aug 20, 2013
Today’s pic is another glimpse of grumpy hit man Anderson from “Superstar,” the fourth of only nine episode of the ill-fated Supertrain series, first airing on March 14, 1979. He’s not quite so grumpy here, as he’s reminiscing about the teddy bear he had as a kid. “You read more
Pic of the Day: “Minnie and Moskowitz” revisited (3)
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on Aug 19, 2013
Our pic of the day (better late than never, sorry about that) once again celebrates Morgan Morgan, the vagabond poet of John Cassavetes‘ Minnie and Moskowitz (1971). “John Cassavetes was different!” Timothy once said. “He would inspire people. He didn’t believe in anything read more
Quote of the Week (325)
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on Aug 18, 2013
This one is full of some oft-repeated rumors and half-truths, but is still worth a look. Imagine an actor with the wild, manic stare of a skid-row John Turturro, the gangly rebel stance of Jerry Lee Lewis and the acting presence of a secure-ward Nicolas Cage. Even then you’re still not close t read more
Pic of the Day: “Ain’t We Got Fun” revisited (3)
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on Aug 15, 2013
Our pic today takes another gander at “Ain’t We Got Fun,” the episode of The Untouchables that was first broadcast on November 12, 1959. Loxie, the grinning pyromaniac muscle behind bootlegger Big Jim Harrington (Ted de Corsia), glares at Benny Hoff (Joseph Buloff), whose nightclub read more
Video of the Week: “The Outfit”
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on Aug 14, 2013
This week we present Timothy’s first and most important scene in John Flynn‘s The Outfit (1973). Robert Duvall runs the show here, with the late great Karen Black briefly glimpsed at the end. Lean, mean and no-nonsense. If you haven’t seen this one yet, you’re missing out. read more
Pic of the Day: “Secret Mission” revisited (3)
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on Aug 13, 2013
Today we revisit one of the six episodes of Cowboy G-Men in which Timothy appeared. It’s “Secret Mission,” first airing on October 4, 1952. Tim’s henchman sneaks around thinking good guy Pat Gallagher (Russell Hayden) is asleep. The joke is on him! This series is readily ava read more
Quote of the Week (323)
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on Aug 11, 2013
I believe I’ve posted this before, but I actually got ahold of a print version of this press release article, so here it is as it appeared in The Bay City [Michigan] Times TV TIMES, September 1, 1968. I like how Timothy mentions The World’s Greatest Sinner (1962) without naming it. Or ma read more
