that is an incredible list......it looks great too with the bolding...gene tierney was one of the most beautiful actresses of her time..a catherine zeta jones of her era...i think she was in the ghost and mrs muir.


ill go through the fifties and see what other gems there are.....one is the enchanted forrest we spoke about before...i have to pick my top 3 abbott and costello from the 40s. red river ?.....my top 3 universal monster movies from the 40s.
fred mcmurray was not a nice guy in the movies before he became all american dad in the fifties...also a tightwad who brought his lunch to the set every day.

ANOTHER 30 FILMS FROM THE 40s.
under construction
alpha order

i only chose films that i watched and remember.......there are many films that belong in a second 30 i left off because i never watched them,..at least thoroughly...i left off its a wonderful life for the same reason as crazy.....it like listening to someone scratching their nails on the blackboard...sheer hell....and i left off citizen kane because they lied about rosebud......if only seth rogen was a producer of citizen kane it would have had a different ending.

to all who continue to see trump as a great leader my apologies.
the chef executive discussing rob porter says unfair to porter...he strongly denies it..that makes it different and " mere allegations "......MERE ALLEGATIONS !!!
people cant understand why kelly praised him and was so loyal to him........the reason was part of kelly's plain view statement...he called porter " a confidante "......a confidante in the white house...the reason is right in there.

SOME OTHER FINE PEOPLE WHO SAID THEY WERE INNOCENT SO THEY PROBABLY WERE

1. RICHARD SPECK
2. ROY MOORE
3. ADOLPH EICHMAN
4. IRA EINHORN
5. LEE HARVEY OSWALD

7. ROGER AILES
8. RICHARD NIXON

You're right about Gene Tierney, dino. In putting together this list I re-watched Laura; she really was a classic beauty.



Kind of funny that her love interest in the film was played by a young Vincent Price.

What was Richard Nixon guilty of? Please refresh our memories. THANKS!

I'm sure you could add another 50 decent films to the 1940s list. I'm woefully ignorant about foreign films from that era, for one thing, plus there are a few Hitchcock films I left off because he was already well-represented and they weren't his very best (but still worth watching): Suspicion, Shadow of a Doubt, Spellbound, Lifeboat, etc.

im not going to refresh the memory of one person......look it up.

idid see suspicion but dont remember it well......i saw lifeboat.

i also do not respond to someone who speaks to me in a mocking or didactic tone.....if he does not fit for you then you say why.

I'm simply curious. WHAT was Richard M. Nixon guilty of?

Another White House aide, this one a speechwriter, forced to resign over spousal abuse:

"She said that during her marriage to Sorensen, he ran a car over her foot, put out a cigarette on her hand, threw her into a wall and grasped her menacingly by her hair while they were alone on their boat in remote waters off Maine’s coast, an incident she said left her fearing for her life."

Holy Christ!

But I'm sure some Trump supporter/apologist will pop in to tell us, "You think Obama's aides weren't wife beaters? You think Obama's speechwriters didn't put their lit cigarettes out on their wives' hands? Don't be naive, crazystengel!"

Ha! Maybe I should unblock Doug. That's pretty funny. I thought it was only Rush Limbaugh transcripts that he posted.

my wife has been told several times that she looks like Gene Teirney. I don't see it, but....

Yer wife looks like she's in her late 90's?
