Pic of the Day: “Bayou” revisited (2)
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on Jun 5, 2012
It’s time for yet another look at Bayou (aka Poor White Trash) (1957), directed by Harold Daniels and starring Peter Graves, Lita Milan, “and presenting Tim Carey” (as the movie poster says)! Ulysses and his sidekick Bos (Jonathan Haze) are talking about the impending storm and som read more
Pic of the Day: “Revolt in the Big House” revisited (1)
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on Jun 4, 2012
Today we go up the river once again with Revolt in the Big House (1958), directed by R.G. Springsteen (no relation to Bruce, as far as I know). Timothy’s Bugsy Kyle has just gotten a look at the new guy, Lou Gannon (Gene Evans). Another character in the film refers to Bugsy as “the one read more
Quote of the Week (35)
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on Jun 3, 2012
Our quote for this week comes from John Baxter‘s biography of Stanley Kubrick. It may generate some discussion. Obviously, I don’t share his low opinion of Timothy’s acting skills. I’ll be interested to hear your thoughts on this one. On Spartacus, Kubrick’s next film, read more
Pic of the Day: Directing “A.L.”
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on Jun 1, 2012
Our pic for today is not the usual screen cap from one of Timothy’s films. Instead, it’s a portrait of the artist as a young director. It was taken around the time Tim was attempting to film his script A.L. (which is not only the lead character’s name, but “L.A.” spelle read more
Pic of the Day: “Superstar” revisited (2)
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on May 31, 2012
Our pic for today (and don’t forget to click to embiggen) is another from the Supertrain episode “Superstar,” first aired on March 14, 1979. Timothy’s generally grumpy hit man Anderson has just said something amusing to his boss on the phone. I guess you had to be there. Tim read more
Video of the Week: “Paths of Glory” (1)
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on May 30, 2012
This week’s video is a fan-created montage of scenes from Stanley Kubrick‘s Paths of Glory (1957), introduced by and set to the song sung in the final scene of the film, “The Faithful Hussar.” For me it truly captures the spirit of the film in a nutshell. The reluctant singer read more
Pic of the Day: “The Long Shot” revisited (2)
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on May 29, 2012
Today we revisit “The Long Shot,” the episode of Racket Squad that provided Tim with one of his first speaking parts in Hollywood. It also marked his first outing in a role that would become one of his staples – the boss’ torpedo. “The Long Shot” was first broadca read more
Happy birthday to The TCE!
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on May 24, 2012
The Timothy Carey Experience is one year old today! I have to say it’s been nothing but a pleasure to bring this blog to you. I’ve received lots of positive feedback, many fans, and that warm fuzzy feeling you get when you know you’re doing something right. Here’s to many mor read more
Video of the Week: “Beach Blanket Bingo” closing credits
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on May 23, 2012
EDITOR’S NOTE 01/09/2013: The video has been removed. My apologies. As we near the end of May, our hearts lightly turn to thoughts of summer. Well, up here in the Northern Hemisphere at least. I have already recommended Bikini Beach (1964) and Beach Blanket Bingo (1965) on these pages for mind read more
Pic of the Day: “Tracks” revisited (2)
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on May 22, 2012
It’s time for another look at Timothy and his teeth in “Tracks,” the Airwolf episode that marked his last series television performance. It aired on March 22, 1986. As the rogue professor known as “The Cat Man,” he stalks those who stalk the wild mountain cats and slin read more
Pic of the Day: “The Gunfight at Dodge City” revisited (1)
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on May 21, 2012
Let’s start off the week with another gander at The Gunfight at Dodge City (1959). Timothy’s crooked deputy Forbes thinks he’s going to be privy to a meeting between his boss Sheriff Regan (Don Haggerty) and Bat Masterson (Joel McCrea), but he’s got another think coming. Dod read more
Quote of the Week (36)
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on May 20, 2012
GL: I’m still trying to digest the fact that you passed up a role in The Godfather. TC: I was offered a spot in both The Godfather and The Godfather Part II. To play Luca Brasi in the first one, and the Mafioso boss who gets killed on the stairs at the opening of the second one. But I didnR read more
Pic of the Day: “The Velvet Jungle” revisited (2)
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on May 18, 2012
It’s Friday – why not celebrate with some SUPER PANCAKES? Today we take another look at “The Velvet Jungle,” the Starsky and Hutch episode that first aired on March 5, 1977. Danny, the racist diner owner, is not being much help to our heroes as they try to crack the case. Da read more
Pic of the Day: “Francis in the Haunted House” revisited (2)
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on May 17, 2012
Today’s pic is the last good shot of Timothy as Hugo, hulking castle minion, that you will see in Francis in the Haunted House (1956), directed by hard-working Charles Lamont. The spooky goings-on clearly have Hugo flummoxed. Mickey Rooney admitted in his autobiography that he has no memories read more
Video of the Week: “Making Sinner”
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on May 16, 2012
This week’s video is a preview trailer of sorts for Making Sinner, the forthcoming documentary by Tim’s son Romeo Carey on the exercise in barely controlled chaos that was the filming of The World’s Greatest Sinner (1962). I have to say, I’m not a big fan of the rap music acc read more
Pic of the Day: “Mermaids of Tiburon” revisited (3)
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on May 15, 2012
By special request (not to mention that it’s way past time for a revisit), today’s pic is another shot from Mermaids of Tiburon (1962), directed by underwater photography expert John Lamb. Timothy’s bad guy Milo Sangster (what a great name) is menacing the hero (George Rowe) with a read more
Quote of the Week (37)
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on May 13, 2012
“I did a snake scene at a personal appearance in Hartford, Conn., and had trouble getting a girl to help. I mean, I didn’t want to get my mother for it… My mother wants me to be a priest.“ - From My New York by Mel Heimer, Simpson’s Leader-Times, January 18, 1958 Timothy and his mother, read more
Eighteen Years Without Tim.
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on May 11, 2012
Timothy died of a stroke eighteen years ago today. It is also the birthday anniversary of his hero, Salvador Dali. Coincidence? You make the call! Tim looking decidedly Dali-esque in his son Romeo’s short film The Devil’s Gas (1990), his final film appearance Amazing portrait by Dan O read more
Pic of the Day: “The Blue Angels” revisited (3)
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on May 10, 2012
Today we take another look at “The Blue Angels,” the Charlie’s Angels episode that was first aired on May 4, 1977. Timothy only appears in the first few minutes. This is how he ends up, unfortunately. He got a much more important role in his second appearance on the show later tha read more
Video of the Week: Frank Zappa on the Steve Allen Show, 1963
The Timothy Carey Experience Posted by Marisa on May 9, 2012
This week we present something slightly different. This is a young Frank Zappa appearing on the Steve Allen Show in 1963. He talks about his involvement with Tim and the scoring of The World’s Greatest Sinner (1962). He is not exactly complimentary. Then he plays a bicycle. Take a look: “ read more
