Ditto that experience and subsequent understanding of these men.
That was an enchanting moment. I was there with him LOL.
She had a "little neck".
That scene was quite sad. Claire Foy was an endearing Ann despite her flaws- the tantrums and machinations.
The series is good enough on its own. I watched it first and read the books afterwards.
You might also want to watch the movie "A Man For All Seasons". Some of the same characters but with different interpretations.
I guess my feeling is he "emotes" a lot. Communicating emotion without words. Clearly he was a departure from traditional acting styles based upon stage productions. I always enjoyed him.
"On the Waterfront" was pretty good as was "The Wild One". Yes, Streetcar was good, too.
The most memorable hat in a Western for me was worn by Henry Fonda in "My Darling Clementine".
That was some odd casting but he carried it off just fine.
One of my favorite Westerns.
The man cannot turn in a bad performance.
Glory
Devil Blue Dress
Malcolm X
The Hurricane
Flight
Eli
these are the ones which come to mind.
Apollo 13.
Of course Aliens in Space understand English. They are not stupid!
Seriously, it is from our television and radio broadcasts which leaked out into space, intercepted by their probes and relayed to their home planets. Ever see the old Spielberg TV show where space aliens come to earth hoping to meet our leaders- Lucy Ricardo and Ralph Cramden?
More of Patrick O'Brian's novels ("Master and Commander").
Sadly, Peter Weir felt there is not enough of an audience for these ship movies from the age of sail.
Charlize today.
Charlize tomorrow.
Charlize forever!
Sorry, but for me, it's Maureen O'Hara.
I confess to digging Siobhan Finneran, who is technically English, born in Lancashire, but of Irish heritage. She was Miss O'Brien in "Downton Abbey".
"The Kremlin Letter", John Huston, Director.
I seem to be the only one on some of the forums here who liked it.
Many times. The most memorable was in 1968 watching "Night of the Living Dead" at a rural drive-in in March. There was still snow and ice on the ground. The place was fairly deserted with large distances between the cars. As the movie progressed, my friends and I heard a crunching of someone slowly approaching our car. Given the movie and our teenage years, we got pretty spooked. A flashlight came on and it turned out to be a Deputy Sheriff who wanted to know if we were doing bad teenage things but not a zombie.
A man of many hits... and some real misses.
The Kremlin Letter I really enjoyed and have seen it several times.
Treasure of the Sierra Madre,
The Man Who Would Be King,
My two favorites of his.
These are my favorites:
Our Man in Havana 1959,
The Third Man 1949
The Fallen Idol 1948
Odd Man Out 1947
The Way Ahead 1944
The Young Mr. Pitt 1942
Night Train to Munich 1940
"St. Joan" is one of my favorites. Jean Seberg was very good.
The two Elizabeth films with Cate the Great were also excellent.
Ditto "The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie".
Yes, he always seems to be working too hard but I sure enjoy some of this movies. "Morituri" being one I watched recently. "The Fugitive Kind" being another.
"Interstellar" has to figure in this.
"Last Year at Marienbad". LOL!
