The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on May 13, 2013
We start the week with another look at Bloodhounds of Broadway (1952), directed by Harmon Jones.

The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on May 11, 2013
Timothy Agoglia Carey (born Timothy William Carey) passed away from complications of a stroke on this date in 1994. Here’s me visiting him in 2011.

The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on May 9, 2013

Video of the Week: “Bayou” (4)
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on May 8, 2013
I have completely run out of videos to post, so it looks like I’m just going to have to start over. This is the very first video I posted nearly two years ago (no way!). Timothy’s Cajun brute Ulysses from Bayou (1957) has a chat with Jean Tithe (Eugene Sonfield) while Bos (Jonathan Haze) read more
Pic of the Day: “Peeper” revisited (3)
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on May 7, 2013
Today’s pic is another from Peeper (1975), Peter Hyams‘ comical take on the hard-boiled gumshoe genre of the 1940s. Bumbling torpedoes Sid and Rosie (Don Calfa) question a cruise ship attendant without trying to appear overly conspicuous. Calfa told me a very amusing story about filming read more
Pic of the Day: “Flight to Hong Kong” revisited (4)
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on May 6, 2013
Today we take another look at Flight to Hong Kong (1956), the foreign intrigue potboiler directed by Joseph M. Newman.

GL: You got fired from your first job, didn’t you? TC: That’s right. Billy Wilder fired me from Ace in the Hole [51]. I’d just gotten out of drama school in New York, and I’d gone to California, where they threw me out of Columbia Studios. So on my way back, I stopped to look read more
Pic of the Day: “The Killing” revisited (5)
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on May 3, 2013
Today we take another gander at Nikki Arcane (Arane in some quarters), the rather scuzzy assassin for hire who nevertheless loves puppies, from Stanley Kubrick‘s The Killing (1956). This is the first glimpse we get of him in the film, gleefully blasting away at cardboard targets while Johnny C read more
Pic of the Day: “House of Numbers” revisited (4)
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on May 2, 2013
Our pic of the day revisits another of Timothy’s uncredited but distinctive small roles (he hated the term “bit part”). This one is from Russell Rouse‘s House of Numbers (1957), starring Jack Palance in a dual role as a prisoner and his brother who is helping him escape. Fren read more
Video of the Week: “Love Jam”
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on May 1, 2013
This week’s video is a delightful change of pace. It’s a music video for the tune “Love Jam” by LA band Mt. Ossa. It has several aspects that make it appropriate for the blog. It recreates the audition scene from John Cassavetes‘ The Killing of a Chinese Bookie (1976), read more

The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on Apr 30, 2013
Today it’s time for another look at the Curtis Harrington-directed shocker What’s the Matter with Helen? (1971). Timothy is briefly but memorably seen as a panhandling tramp in 1930s Hollywood. Here he thanks Adelle (Debbie Reynolds) and her beau Linc Palmer (Dennis Weaver) for their gen read more
Pic of the Day: “The Wild One” revisited (4)
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on Apr 29, 2013
Today we revisit The Wild One (1953), directed by Laslo Benedek and starring Marlon Brando. Here we see “Chino’s Boy #1″ getting the brilliant idea of pouring a bottle of beer on Chino (Lee Marvin) to spur him on during the big fight with Brando. If I’m not mistaken, that is read more

Romeo Carey recently heard from Bill Winckler, the son of Betty Sturm, who portrayed one of God Hilliard’s devoted followers in The World’s Greatest Sinner (1962). His mother had some fascinating memories of Timothy and her participation in the film. Fill in your details below or click a read more

Pic of the Day: “East of Eden” (1981) revisited (3)
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on Apr 25, 2013
To wash away the sins of yesterday’s post, we turn to Brother Carey as he sermonizes against the dangers of “the devil’s holy water” in the 1981 television miniseries version of John Steinbeck‘s epic novel East of Eden, directed by Harvey Hart. I need to do a side-by-s read more

Pic of the Day: “Waterhole #3″ revisited (3)
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on Apr 23, 2013
Today we revisit Waterhole #3 (1967), the amiable Western comedy directed by William A. Graham. Part-goat Hilb and Sgt. Henry Foggers (Claude Akins) are on the trail of some stolen gold – and they’re the ones who stole it. Long story. Akins began his legendary career in an uncredited bi read more
Pics of the Day: “Chesty Anderson U.S. Navy”
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on Apr 22, 2013
Happy Monday! Unfortunately we kick off the week with what is undoubtedly the ghastliest film Timothy ever appeared in – Chesty Anderson U.S. Navy (1976). I’ve only posted one pic from this so far, because the film is so onerous that I can’t even bear to fast forward through it to read more
